....yeah, I've seen Thanksgiving decorations before, but not until this year have a seen houses on various blocks full-on decked out with thanksgiving decorations. I'm talking about stuff that would put most peoples' Christmas decorations or Halloween decorations to shame; property totally tranformed with oversized pumpkins, lots of lights, pilgrims and Indians and turkeys, horn of plenty, etc. It's nuts.
The other thing is in our public library. There's a very, very, very cool audio installation in the arts section.
If you're wandering those few aisles on the third floor, you'll hear, occasionally, on the overhead speaker, the sound of a page turning. Sounds like crisp, heavy paper. Just happens now and again.
It was several visits to the library before I realized that someone hadn't just left a hot microphone somewhere near someone reading a book; that this was intentional.
It's just... it's just cool. Can't explain it. And it's just on that one speaker overhead; walk anywhere else in the library, and you don't hear it. Just the art section.
