Comments on: The Owl… http://www.knewlove.com/blog/2005/08/29/the-owl/ like old hate Wed, 07 Jan 2009 05:14:17 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5 by: Kathleen http://www.knewlove.com/blog/2005/08/29/the-owl/#comment-22 Wed, 31 Aug 2005 17:22:38 +0000 http://www.knewlove.com/blog/2005/08/29/the-owl/#comment-22 The owl is a ceramic, animatronic thingie sitting in the bookcase with little red christmas tree lights in its eye sockets that is supposed to be really spooky and everything. Apparently, there is a guy named Omar who sits inside the bookcase and everytime he hears "Open Sesame," he opens the door for you. See?! It's MAGIC. Ugh. And Brad was only out there for 5 minutes, not 30. And he couldn't have smoked more than one cigarette. I guess it's my bad. I should've explained better. I was really trying to do a formative comparison of the difference between the way men and women tell stories (specifically Brad and myself.) I suck. I know. That should teach me not to write blogs at work where I'm easily distracted.
