Photo of the Now, vol. 192: Exploring Ann Arbor … at night
If you didn’t know, “insalate” is a restaurant term meaning “if we use foreign words, we can charge you more.”
If you don’t love the Law Quad, you’re not alive. Also, you probably love that ridiculous addition they put on the Museum of Art.
Oh, the drama!
While I was wandering Ann Arbor with my camera two weeks ago, I happened across an amusingly dramatic bit of graffiti in an alley off Liberty:

Last Thursday, the Chelsea District Library hosted the last of its four Comedy Showcase events in conjunction with the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase. The show started with Germaine Gebhard, continued with Sean Hunter, and concluded with headliner Chili Challis.

As Chelsea’s graduation ceremony began last week, I was on the elevated track photographing the orchestra as it played what I thought was that infernally brief (and thus oft-repeated) graduation song, Pomp and Circumstance. When I took a shot of the sheet music, I was startled to find that though the song sounded familiar, it was, in fact, a different song:

Chelsea High School held its graduation ceremony last Sunday. Do you know what that means? Yes, that’s right: we, the people of Chelsea, joined together to renew our hatred of Pomp & Circumstance as it was played over and over and over again. Also, the class of 2009 graduated.

Last Friday, Editor Terry and I visited the Ann Arbor Comedy Showcase to gather material for an upcoming story. Upon finding the club — which is cleverly concealed in the basement of a restaurant — we watched the first show (well, I took some pictures, too); after the show, he talked to the comedians (two openers and a headliner) while I took a few more pictures.
Did I laugh? Yes. And since I was there on business, I’ll be able to deduct that laughter. (No, not really.)
