Yesterday was Scott’s sister’s birthday. To celebrate, we went to see Darcelle XV & Co., a mainstay of ~40 year old women’s entertainment. At least, that’s what I gathered from the crowd. It was a lot of fun, and despite our being roughly half the age of most of the other patrons. There was a small part of me that was wondering how Rowdy Roddy Piper was doing with his comic debut just a few blocks away. I’ll just have to assume he was awesome.
I was tempted to buy the Polaroid photo they take as you enter with Darcelle himself because my mom also has a photo with Darcelle and my late, great aunt Irvene. That’s three generations! Alas, it was taken before the entire group was there, and $10 for a Polaroid is a bit steep.
A coworker also told me about the day the both Darcelle and his entourage were visiting Rock Creek campus for one celebration, and members of the Bush cabinent and secret service were also there. He said the mix made for an entertaining picture, especially because the girls in Darcelle’s entourage were taller than the secret service agents.
Darcelle has been to SY a few times too. I particularly enjoyed when Charlie was still working for us and he was the reigning Mr. Leatherman Oregon. There was also a woman in drag (I think) performing to some song still stuck in my head that had about two lines: You and me are just a couple of mammals, so let’s do it like they do it on Discovery Channel. And on and on. Yeah. It’s just like the college I worked for in North Carolina.

I can only imagine the kind of crap I would get around here if the guys somehow found out I visited that site!
