On Tuesday, I was walking to my friend Ellen's house for an event called "Good Beer, Bad Movie." Basically, a group of friends get together to watch a terrible movie and make running commentary on the actors, plot, and "special effects". Like an interactive Mystery Science 3000. Past features include: Troll 2, Sleep-Away Camp, and The Happening. I was 10-minutes late to Caravan of Courage: An Ewok Adventure - the bastard child of the Star Wars franchise based on the forest moon of Endor - but despite my hurried pace, I didn't miss the conversation waiting for me at the traffic light. With ingredients to make root-beer floats swinging at my side, I came even with three women and heard one of them say "twig and berries". If I were a wolf, my ears would have pricked up and I'd have been capable of hearing a leaf break from a branch in Naperville. I listened more closely and prayed that the light wouldn't turn. But as the story continued, it became more clear that they weren't casually speaking of men's genitalia but talking about a recent craft project. Which reminds me, when is the next crafternoon? I've got a boner of a good idea.
