Magic and mayhem
Yes, I was looking at my Netflix queue to see if I had anything coming up that looked good. I confess I have nearly 300 items in the Q, so forgive me if I forget what’s on the list.
While I was there I looked at the top 25 DVDs rented for Sacramento. Number 1 was “Portrait of Courage: The Untold Story of Flight 93.” That makes sense, considering we’ve only recently passed 9/11 - the five year remembrance. The other two in the top 3 were DVDs from prior TV seasons. “Medium” and “Dead Like Me” were #2 and #3 respectively.
You’d think in a legislating law-obsessed city, we’d be watching some law flicks or old courthouse reruns. But actually, we’re focused on the macabre and otherworldly. Oh yeah, #8 was “Burning Man: Beyond Black Rock”–that gives me some hope. Maybe we’re a city full of new age bong-smoking pagans. Or maybe not. Either way, we sure like our ESP and psychic connections. Does anyone out there know if we’re a psychic sinkhole? Or should I call that a psychic “hotspot”? Hey, if Sedona, AZ can be one, why not Sactown?
