POP goes the
PRINT

Arkansas reminds me of popcorn.  When I was about eight years old, my father was transferred to Arkansas for work for 18 weeks, and during the inclement weather (a three foot flood, 18″ of snow and 100°+ temps all during our 18 weeks in Little Rock), I would go to work with one of my father’s friends.  This friend worked at a local movie theatre as a projectionist, and I would sit in the projection booth and watch the movie through the teeny tiny viewing window with a cardboard box of leftover theatre popcorn in my lap.  Blissful.  I am doubting that this next Call will feature popcorn at the opening, but you COULD bring your own…
