Nobody's seen this? I was really surprised that it's not even on page 1. I'm going this afternoon. It sounds very interesting to me. Comedy? Check. Quirky? Check. Social commentary? Check.

It was very interesting and amusing. Let's just say it took a turn I was unprepared for.

you mean.. you DIDN'T see that coming? :D

I thought it was really good... different, bold voice. Want to see it again at some point to let some of the finer points sink in after being thrown for a loop at the turn and to see how the ground work was laid to get there.
