after attending BAN meeting last night. Let's get down to serious business. Lots of discussion re September march and a possible forum in August. Today, there are two possible demonstrations that I might attend, will probably choose the one in Brooklyn, against the aggressive development of the buildings across from the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. Again, it is like a juggernaut that won't stop and the city seems to be in league with it. So what does this have to do with your "passion for theater", cityboy? Don't know, maybe the two are totally separate. Sometimes I feel like Hamlet (I know this is kind of pretentious) "the time is out of joint...that ever I was born to set it right". Yes, why me, why get involved with this problem? Because it is so ugly, and is so unfair to so many people simply living a decent life. Anyway, the protest is tonight, and I will try to be there.
Not much else to report. Another aspect of the meeting was planning the september march---I think we have pretty much decided on a route. Next meeting, two weeks from today will be in Sunset Park. Looking forward to it.
After the meeting, interested in what was happening in Baseball, but longed for a cheese danish, not a beer, so ended up in the Greek diner, one block away from the meeting (23rd a little east of 7th). Great (and very filling) danish, with some coffee, watched about three innings of the latest Met debacle. Then went home.
This seems to be where I am now, will report on whatever I do or wherever I go tonight in tomorrow's blog.
