Staged Rotation
AUGUSTA, GA. - Last year, my employer hosted a review of local culinary offerings on a day when a the Rotary Club had their Fire Muster to benefit the Southeastern Burn Foundation. Both events were on opposite ends of the same patch of public property, both had live entertainment.
At the Fire Muster, a young singer/songwriter took the stage.
"Who is he?" a Rotarian asked.
"I dunno," another answered. "But he's good."
They kicked back a while to listen. At a break, the singer's cell phone rang.
"Where are you?" the event coordinator demanded.
"I'm on stage!" he exclaimed.
"No, you're not!" she argued.
Shortly, they realized he was on stage... at the wrong event. Never fear! The fire fighters drove him in a golf cart over to the correct one just in time for him to make his stage time. That's a rock star for you. Can't walk across a big ol' lawn.
They need to make adult-size Big Wheels. I would totally buy one.
ReplyDeleteThey do. They're called "mountain bikes." I hear a lot of triathletes use them.
