Peter Pan Play in Elgin Ends in Evacuation

Musings

The way this news article was written made me giggle. It sounds almost like an Onion article.

ELGIN, Ill. (AP) — A small fire broke out at an Illinois school performance of “Peter Pan” last night, forcing hundreds of people to evacuate at the play’s key moment.

Authorities said the fire happened about the time when the audience is asked to save Tinker Bell’s life by clapping to show they believe in fairies. Instead, a Larkin High School teacher came on stage announcing there was a fire and that everyone had to leave.

No one was hurt badly and the fire was extinguished.  If I remember correctly, the fire station is right next door to the school.

Today

Blogging, Technology, Wrestling,

Today I slept in late, after a little too much Chardonnay last night. Then I worked some.

Dean and I finally got some window treatments for our dining and living room that were painted three years ago.

I stopped by Micro Center and got my free 2 gig SD card.

I checked my blog stats and was surprised to discover that people got here by googling things like husband has low self esteem and blackpool windmills.

Checked my stats again and saw what looked to be Arabic text.

Weird things going on in the world of WordPress. I guess I really do need to update.

Yesterday the wrestling team completed its regular season 14 – 0. They host the regionals on Wednesday. Keep your fingers crossed that they make it to the finals so they can go to states.  It’s going to be hard going from here.
