I probably shouldn’t have been surprised, but the volume of email generated by last Friday’s post with the scantily clad dancer made me laugh more than once.

Despair not, however. My search turned up something just as fun–a fantastic shot of the audience at this event. Zoom in for a good look at the expressions:
