I gave my presentation

I gave my presentation on Chile this morning. Not so bad, but nothing spectacular. Then I came back to the room and zoned out until 11, when I went to see Noises Off... in Bob's room.

Oh dearie me, what a funny movie. It's about a theatre company putting on a British sex farce and trying to get to Broadway, but the goings-on behind the scenes are even crazier than what's going on on stage. It has Michael Caine as the director, Carol Burnett as the star, John Ritter (no really, it's good, I swear) as the annoying jealous actor who's having an affair with Carol Burnett and can't finish a single sentence, Christopher Reeve as the sensitive dumb guy who gets nosebleeds at the thought of violence, Indiana Jones' friend Marcus Brody as the drunken, deaf, senile actor playing the burglar, and Larry from Perfect Strangers (Mark Linn-Baker) as the bewildered stagehand.

Lloyd Fellowes (Michael Caine): And God said, "Where the Hell is Tim?" And there the Hell was Tim. And God said, "Let there be doors that open when they open, and close when they close."
Tim Allgood (Mark Linn-Baker): Do something?
Lloyd Fellowes: DOORS!
Tim Allgood: I was getting the bananas for the sardines.

Mwah ha. You'd get it if you saw it. Oh yeah, and Patti LuPone is playing Carol Burnett's part on Broadway right now. :D
