Day 1224 - The Descendents At The Fox Theater - 09.28.14

Tonight my son and I went to see The Descendents at the Fox Theater in Pomona.  The Bombpops and Off opened.  The Bombpops were a bit boring.  Off was pretty good.  The Descendents were amazing.  The only lame thing about the evening was the venue.  You had to arrive early to get a wristband to be able to go down to the floor and get close to the stage.  I did not have a wristband and so was stuck standing with a bunch of other old folks like myself.  I would have much more preferred to have been in the mix closer to the stage.  Oh well, live and learn.  This is the marquee outside the theater.  This was something I saw today.

Day 1222 - Disney's Painful Sarcasm - 09.26.14

I got this in the mail yesterday.  I opening it today and thought is was a bit of a hurtful joke.  It says that they want me back as an annual passholder, but based on everything Disneyland has done recently I know that the opposite is true.  They are doing everything they can to cut down on the number of annual passholders by raising fees and even cancelling a whole level of passes.  I wish I could afford to be a passholder, but it has gotten soooooo expensive.  So when I opened this piece of mail I thought that surely this sentence must be intended to be read sarcastically.  That is how I read it and it made me sad.  This was something I saw today.

Day 1218 - Napkin Noire - 09.22.14

If this napkin were a character in a film noire, the bars would symbolize that this character is feeling caged or trapped.  That is what I was thinking when I saw this napkin this morning.  It is a caged napkin.  This was something I saw today.
