Luckily, I have a parking spot in the alley, so I was not one of those unfortunate owners. <\/p>\n<p>Later today, I joined the surprisingly large crowd that gathered in the rain to hear <a href=\"http:\/\/www.johnkerry.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hair France<\/a> speak. Kerry gave a rousing stump speech, which was critical of the President, but focused on what he would do differently, instead of just the negative aspects. I didn&rsquo;t get to shake his hand, but I got within about eight feet afterwards, before he left the scene in his motorcade.<\/p>\n<p>But the biggest news of the day is that my show, &ldquo;I Love You, You&rsquo;re Perfect, Now Change&rdquo;, is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.denverpost.com\/Stories\/0,1413,36~415~2226530,00.html\" target=\"_blank\">finally closing<\/a> after more than four years in production, setting the record for the longest-running show in Denver history. I&rsquo;ve thoroughly enjoyed working with this show as a sub for the master electrician, and more recently as a sub for the assistant stage manager and the two other stagehands. I&rsquo;ve seen people come and go, some have stayed through the whole thing, and I myself started at the beginning in 2000 and left and came back again. I don&rsquo;t have any official announcements to make at the moment regarding my future employment at the Galleria Theatre, but I hope to have some very positive news in the upcoming weeks. <\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" src=\"https:\/\/blogger.googleusercontent.com\/tracker\/3501955-108787003523877200?l=www.driko.org%2Findex_blogger.html\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today was a fairly interesting day, beginning around 4am with a tractor trailer being stolen by some drunk 16 year-old about a block from my apartment, driven the wrong way down my one-way street for about three blocks, and taking out some 14 cars along the way.
