You have to love an Indianapolis weekend when it's impossible to get to everything you want to see.

While I caught Allalike Productions' "bare," Theatre on the Square's remarkable "A Very Merry Unauthorized Children's Scientology Pageant," ShadowApe's "Transformations" and ACT's young adult production of "The Wiz," there were still plenty of concerts and theater productions to be had.  Heck, I still haven't gotten to see Batman's latest adventure on the big screen.

So what did you get to this weekend? I look forward to reading your thoughts.

Oh, and if you missed it in the print edition of IBJ, visit www.ibj.com/arts for my thoughts on Chakaia Booker's art and L.A. Theatre Works' plays on tape.

    Lou- I think I sat near you at the Theatre on the Square the other night. Glad you liked the show. If you are interested in posting pictures let me know, I can email you some from Dress Rehearsals.
    It is a great show and remarkable what the kids can do. It is their show!

    I went on a tour at Crown Hill Cemetery. The tour guide had done his research; it was very informative and fun. I'm looking forward to going on another tour.

    My wife and I went to Symphony on the Prairie. We're usually very happy with it, but Friday's James Bond night was very disappointing.
    The selections were just o.k., and the vocalist seemed like a very bad Las Vegas lounge singer.
    It was too bad. The last couple of ones we attended had been very good.

    My brother and I went to the Indianapolis Museum of Art's Summer Screening of The Big Lebowski and it was a lot of fun. We were already big fans of the movie, but it was an added bonus to be surrounded by true fans and new fans. People were cheering after the iconic lines and there were even a bunch of people in costumes. (I, myself, wore my robe in honor of The Dude.)

    This movie has such a cult status that there is even a Lebowski fest (http://lebowskifest.com/). I have never been to it, but this screening felt like Indianapolis's version of that.

  1. These higher rates Co. e about only because physicians are now hospital employees. otherwise physicians couldn't charge these rates and share the windfall with the hospital. Community/rural hospitals probably not buying physicians practices and thus weren't getting the windfall anyway.

  2. The incentive for poor people to get themselves off public assistance and "no longer be poor" is even with help...they're STILL POOR! Being poor, even with some assistance, isn't all that pleasant. (I speak from experience) It's a stubborn myth that poor people, who are on public assistance, are sitting in the lap of luxury. You should try living on just those "freebies" that you mentioned and see how meager they actually are. By the way, I didn't mean you had to buy/own a puppy...just pet one. :)

  3. As near as I can tell the minority has ZERO constitutional obligation to offer a quorum to the majority. A requirement for quorum was inserted into the constitution so that tyrannical majorities could not simply shove through odious and objectionable legislation (which is exactly what they did.) By allowing a tyrannical majority to charge fines against the minority for exercising their constitutional prerogative to deny quorum the court as made a mockery of constitutional governance in the state of Indiana.

  4. The voters elected the Reps to make a vote not walk out on the vote. They had to the right to exercise their opinion and vote "no" to the bill. Let me ask you this if you walked out of your job for 5 straight weeks would you get paid? Would you even have a job to go back to? If any elected official walks out on the people they should be arrested for stealing tax dollars from the public. They were elected to do a job and not leave when the job gets stuff.

  5. I have been to several of their locations in Pennsylvania and always go in for 1 item and leave with a basket full of things. I'm very happy they decided on Indiana, now if only they would put the other store in eastside.
