meximick's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- observations Observations: Going to the movies last week, I was struck at the similarities between the shiny new multiplex and an airport. Once you buy the movie ticket at the front desk, you go through the door into the lobby, and its a huge atrium with a long skylight, and a huge escalator on one side, which takes passengers to additional concourses. You get ripped off at the concession stand, and surrender the ticket to the agent at the gate who tells you to "Enjoy your movie" (or, "flight"). Walking along the corridor, the movie titles scroll on ceiling mounted displays, with time of performance (or "departure"). And its clean as Hell, too. And everyone seems to be wearing the same uniforms as well. suspicious. 2) With every Elvis Costello album I buy, I love the man's music more and more. The guy fucking rules. I think way too much about nothing. 17:58:11 - 2000-08-09 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
