Obameow and Rent?

Nothing much new is up here, except the papers are all over the Inauguration, and, for those who have yet to visit this country, the role of squirrel is being played by CATS, especially on campus. They eat with you, hang around outside your door, and sometimes appear in odd places, like washing machines. See the Facebook album for examples.

However, there was one unexpected thrill today, in the form of a free performance of the upcoming hit show "Before Rent." Although there are no new songs, the show is apparently supposed to establish the characters in the play. Anyway, the group sang two songs, and what began as a possibly impressive idea turned into a haunting rendition, far from what was expected by anyone. I'll probably still end up seeing the show, but with expectations of comedic pleasure.
