  1. I did not like being required to sit at another table away from my husband. This sometimes happens in interactive theater, where the party who comes to the event together is split up, but here this was done for no good reason whatsoever.

  2. so, BAM, you want me to write a parable about The Parable Conference eh? OK.

    Leaves rustled underfoot on a cool fall night as the in-crowd gathered at Fisher for what they knew not. Pablo's performance sparkled and senses everywhere were heightened. We left, knowing the world was a better place for the intricate art of Helguera and friends. I think I'll write him a letter.
