She would never say where she came from (it was Denver).














It was an evening of fingers . . .




















the loss of fingers . . .














and, appropriately on many levels, Bloody Mary's.




















We had two (actually three, counting Kit) virgins . . .




















three Eli's . . .




















and the Salt of the Earth (finally).




















We had repeat costumes (very nicely done),




















































and live, as well as stuffed, animals.







































Best prop: it's a toss up between the turntable, the tv tied to the radiator, the hickory stump/axe, and the plastic finger.

































Biggest surprise: the mother of movie night and two semi- inaugural members were (very) late.

Most shameless ploy for attention: eating the gummy rats

Most childish behavior: cock/paper-towel-roll photo session

Children (Shannon not included): do they add or detract from movie night? Discuss.

Drifting in and out of the room during the movie: is it now sanctioned? Discuss.

Best save: Donna digs up a Hickory Stump Margot costume at the last minute, when the red sweatsuit falls through

Most valuable lesson learned: get a babysitter so everyone can go out after the movie.*

Best costume: all of them, seriously. This was a high point in movie night history. Proof that Tenenbaums is the ultimate movie night?


*those who went out now disagree

Is anyone else having trouble with the QuickTime icon? Mine has a big question mark in it. That can't be good.
