Yestereen, as I was proceeding with Lady Hillary to see Henry V at the free theatre in Central Park, I noted a sailboard mast and sail by the side of the road. As an inveterate trashpicker and sailor, I could not resist rescue the of both both.

What to do, however, while in the theatre? I could not leave it on the car on the street as it probably would have been stolen.

As I carried the 15' mast up to the ticket booth, I asked to check the mast. The person behind the counter said he could arrange it but what was it. After significant discussion with the security drones, they agreed to allow us to stow what had become a jousting lance but refused to take responsibility for it. Lady Hillary and I camouflaged it as part of the fence surrounding the theatre. It was still there when we came for it after the play. If any one of you is in a position to come to see the Public's presentation before it closes, come see it. Definitely worth it.
