Do The Citys (yes, I know it should be Cities) have to fight to the death and decapitate one another?
If so, my money's on Detroit kicking the other cities' asses. Unless driving is involved, then Boston is deadlier.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I think being the hog butcher to the world gives Chicago an edge.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
In Detroit, the road itself is an adversary.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
But if you tame it, you can become its master and wield it against your attackers.

Exactly.

Do we still keep an eye on [link] for the tickets?I got linked about the KC screening here. 's the only reason I got tickets. I'm going to be keeping an eye on B.org, myself.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
I'd definitely keep an eye out here. I found out about the Providence screening here, and, after I'd bought those tickets, then I found out about the Boston one.
Oh well, they all got put to good use. I don't think I'll try for the next one though. I'm just curious to see the finished product in Sept. right now.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"
I'll keep an eye out, because I have at least three friends who still haven't been able to see it. So I'd be donating the tickets to them.

move out and draw fire
There was a screening in DC. And I was in Athens for it. (weeps quietly).

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
One of the ways I could always tell if a person was from someplace other than the northeast is if they referred to New York as "New York City." I think the only people in the northeast who say the whole phrase is people from upstate with axes to grind. When I am "going to New York," I am not going to Syracuse.
(I have had the opposite argument, with people who refuse to admit that Queens is part of New York [the city], but I have only had that argument with the sort of people who would not be caught dead in Queens, and fans of the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim.)
Los Angeles is 30 neighborhoods in search of a city, and I wish I could have coined that phrase myself, but I think it was someone professionally witty.
