Anonymous said...: This is the oldest purpose-built ticket wagon in existence, preserved today at the Ringling Museum, Sarasota, FL. It dates to circa 1912 or so. It survived abandonment in the Sarasota graveyard in the mid-1930s until being rescued.; 01 December, 2007 08:49

The Passion Play at Robarts will be timed by a Sun Dial so go potty and bring a snack before taking your seats.

The Court Room Drama at the club promises to be historical and hysterical...remember: no knives and no weapons are allowed and gambling is not permitted during the hearing but is strongly encouraged after the judge bangs the gavel.
Remember: it's gavel banging that brought us all together in the first place.

All roads lead to Sf, please don't dump you grey water in the parking lot.; 01 December, 2007 11:08
