Curious Geoff and his 300lb trunk

Last time it was tap dancing through Asia with "42nd Street." This time it's flying (literally and theatrically) across the country, bringing Broadway's "Mary Poppins" to Disney-files all over the U.S.

Dallas - photos

DALLAS provided me with a little less than an inspiring array of imagery. In fact, the closest thing I came to visiting a coffee shop less commercial than a Starbucks was when I stopped by the "Deep Fried Latte" stand at the Texas State Fair. And bookshops? Well, the only bookshop within biking distance was a Borders, and unless they're paying me to take a picture of their Uptown Dallas store, I'm not about to post one here. So instead of the trifecta this time around, I've included the standard shot of the theatre house from the stage, along with a few other goodies, just to spice things up a bit.

The Music Hall on the Dallas State Fairgrounds


The array of heart-stopping fried foods available for your cardiac delight at the Texas State Fair.


A "talking" (read: snorting, grunting, or burping) pig started off the pig races. These three people were....very special. Touched, one might say.


The races, themselves. There were a few spills, some hurt feelings, and I still hold to it that it was rigged so that the black pig came in last.
