    ***** INT. Battelle Auditorium - NIGHT…read more Stranger (with a Scottish Accent) "Look at the size of that boy's head. It's like an orange on a toothpick." ***** [I'll explain why I felt like the kid in "So I Married An Axe Murderer" later. On to my Yelp....] I remember coming here once before years ago when a science heavyweight was in town giving a lecture. Tonight? Tonight I was here to watch a movie....errrr...or should I say film. Yes, I was here to see a French film ("Summer Hours") thanks to the Battelle Film Club. Note: they show this movie on Fridays, and for some reason I'm always pooped on Fridays after a busy week. So, next time, I'll need to remember to caffeinate or pick a more action-packed film. ADMISSION: a whopping $3 CROWD: auditorium was surprisingly full, and of the blue hair variety WHAT: Every other week or so, the Battelle Film Club does it's part to inject the Tri-Cities a much needed dose of cinematic culture. The Auditorium is fair. I actually liked it's style. I'm a child of the '70s, and something told me this place was circa '70s. The film we watched was projected digitally and from a DVD. The screen is a little small, so I grabbed a seat in the front. "You're not going to sit in there with a hat are ya, sonny?" the older lady asked behind me. "Really? You're going to sit in the front row with a hat?! People don't do that?!" she implored again. "What? C'mon it's just a baseball cap [it's not an Abe Lincoln!]. No one is sitting behind me and the movie starts in 30seconds!" I replied back. Wow, it's been a while since I've been scolded by an elder like that. It was kinda interesting and made me feel like a kid again. But seriously, I felt like the kid with the big head that a Scottish Mike Meyers berates in "So I Married An Axe Murder"! At any rate, the Auditorium is cool. The movie selection is generally above average (better than the rubbish at the local multiplexes), and they serve refreshments and discuss the movie after the show. Corey (wearing his hat on his melon of a head) LIKES.

    The last time I was there, my chair broke in the middle of a seminar. Everyone noticed. I couldn't…read morestop laughing. And, I bruised my hip. Yep, it was hilarious. I won't sit in that row again!
