almost an evening — ethan coen

Almost an Evening is a series of three one act plays:

Wait­ing: Nel­son is wait­ing in a wait­ing room with­out a door. How did he get there? How can he leave? How long before he can leave? Surely some­body will know, right?

Four Benches: One, a British secret agent, is lit­er­ally and fig­u­ra­tively in the dark. He is not alone though. With him is at least a very naked Texan. But who else is there? And did any­one hear that shot as well?

It is Dublin, it is Tues­day and for Harold, Paul, Don­ald and Mickey it is a dif­fer­ent Tues­day than usual. A strange breeze is blow­ing over the river Lif­fey. A breeze that seems to have an effect on time, mem­o­ries, hope and the nor­mal order of life. Few peo­ple notice, but the afore­men­tioned four do and they will have a Tues­day they will never for­get, or remem­ber. Meet Harold…

how to hug a porcupine — dr. debbie ellis

Dr. Deb­bie Ellis has writ­ten a self-help kind of book about an “easy way to love the dif­fi­cult peo­ple in your life”. First off she explains what a por­cu­pine is and how the human equiv­a­lent shows itself. Then, per page, you get a spe­cial tech­nique how to respond to or deal with a spe­cific behav­ior by your porcupine.

It’s a very enter­tain­ing book you may learn from or get the appraisal for your work you were so des­per­ate for.
