      My lovely friend Lauren Russo decided what she wanted most for her birthday was for her friends to share their special talents. In this very special, expanded episode of kthread, learn how to make a paper airplane, resurrect a fish, policy debate, and mix bread dough. Special appearance by the Whiskey Dixies and other musical and literary guests; watch to the end for a bonus song. Happy birthday, Lauren. (A Flickr set is here.)

      450 calories an hour

      Two weekends ago, I partied at my favorite house in Mount Pleasant. There was birthday cake inside and hoopers outside. I went outside. Morgan started, shouting "bring it," broke the fourth wall, and encouraged me to pick up a hoop for the first time in a long time. I did. In heels. I handed my camera off when I took a hoop, so all filming credit goes to Cameron Nordholm. I assume all blame for gratuitous hooping. (Film has been edited only for a brief instance of heteronormativity.)

      Xanadu Wishes

      Earlier this summer, I was excited to learn one could "skate to Xanadu" for the new Broadway production for the cult movie and enter, in skates, for half the price. The Broadway production has since discontinued the skate discount, but the dream lives on, so Ben and I threw a Xanadu party complete with costumes, theme music, and an angel food cake for Stewart and Michael's birthday. I asked everyone about their Xanadu...
