It all started with us surprising the folks at The Jet Hotelwith our arrival, and it ended with a life-saving Heimlich maneuver over organic noodles. In between, we heard great stories about false prophets, people throwing furniture from houses, bossiness, some demons being worse than others, a woman dreaming in an old claw-foot tub, a little girl packing her tiny suitcases, and a dog named Winston Churchill. All of you were amazing. Quote from instructor Jennifer Itell: "I left there marveling at the amount of talent in the world." True, true.
