In some ways it has been a hard few days. David's injury unnerved us all. And then Alexis O'Hara arrived yesterday, only to find half of her gear was purloined from her luggage. Now that's a performance artist's nightmare. Both a violation (someone messed with her most important stuff!) and a huge impediment to getting her job done (she needs that gear for the gig!). So we drown our sorrows in yoga, beer, thrift shopping, and a pilgrimage to the big boot. Jessica in the fridge. Todd and Alexis on the mighty toe.

Yes, and we prairie folks know how comforting over-sized icons can be. My sympathies to the performer who had her luggage snagged. That's heart-breaking.
There is a guy here in Vancouver who is waging a very performative campaign to de-elect David Emerson. Every week he has new signs up in our neighborhood. I am constantly surprised by his passion and sheer doggedness in his war against this particular injustice. He would fit very nicely into the context of this festival.
