| It is a known fact that finals week is undoubtedly "an experience"...
(truthfully, throwing fruit really does help...)
It has been quite a while in which I have slept more during the night than the next day.

It's a good movie.... great one-liners, yet one must really listen to it with a deaf ear to the extensive language.

...gotta love Sunday afternoon Black & White movies.... (it's a tradition)
| | |
| So... "Button Pusher" joined about halfway through the movie. I
henceforth refer to him as this pseudo-name because of his fascination
with keeping the elevator in constant movement by pressing the button
for every floor... Due to his love for pushing buttons (along
with my lack of desire to keep hopping up to press the button) he was
deemed the new "Button Control Manager"...
The final permanent movie watcher was "Late Arrival" who joined while
there was about 25 minutes left in the movie. It was not very
difficult to bring "Late Arrival" up to speed on the movie because we
had developed a short rundown on what happened so far in the movie
(this was due to the fact that just about every elevator occupant -- in
their shame -- would ask what was going on in the movie) ...
All of the preceding events had developed into me holding the computer
at a level at which everyone could see it.... this continued until the
end of the movie.
**Legal Disclaimer: Even with all the occupants the elevator continued
to function effeciently and we never exceeded the total weight limit of
the elevator.**

It just goes to show all of the fun that can be had on a 4' X 6' elevator after midnight....

So... what could be more fun than deciding to watch a random movie at
12:30am -- well, you could always watch it while working as an elevator
bellhop. So me and (--unsaid neighboring
hallmate--) decided that 12:30 was too early to go to bead,
thus we did what every logical human being would do... watch a
movie..
(Enter the elevator)
Said elevator comes into play when we decided to watch the movie in the
elevator just for kicks and because the acoustic are better for unsaid
neighbors laptop... Unsaid neighbor, which I shall henceforth
refer to as U.N., held the computer while I would greet the elevator
guest and request which level they disired to go to... While
traveling between floors we would invite any occupants to join us for
the movie --- usually this was refused (truely we live in much too busy
of a world... I mean come on who wouldn't want to join two random
people in an elevator to watch a humorous movie...) ...what
suprised me the most was that not a single person that came through had
even heard of Evolution... What a sad world we live in... *this
is a good point to rant on the disappearance of good movie from our
society* when I search for this movie on the Xanga "Currently
Watching" section... I had to scroll through 125 different movies
before "Evolution" (with the yellow smiley) appeared...
----------Note to everyone who has not seen the movie -----
-------STOP! Go watch the movie and then continue reading this------
Back to the elevator...
Finally after many occupants had utilzed our services...two (which I
shall refer to as The Two )finally took us up on our perpetual
offer. Thus the elevator now held two chairs (which had been in
the elevator before U.N. and myself had entered it), U.N., myself, and
The Two -- all in a 4' X 6' elevator.... oh, and it gets even better....
As time went on, we got some strange faces from people when the
elevator door would open and they would be greeted by "What floor are
you headed to?" -- the fact that we were watching a movie titled
"Evolution" only made things better --- and to conclude our short
ritual with the salutation of "Enjoy the rest of your
morning..." Some people (especially those who are not from
this glorious building) took this string of events to be quite strange,
yet others would join us for a few scenes of the movie...
(Enter the last two regulars)
The story of the last two regulars begins with the entrance of "Button Pusher"... being about halfway through the movie
=-------I'm going to bed.... you'll get the rest of the story later ------
