DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — I just got back from the first half of the Shaolin Monks at Grand Performances. I just saw human bodies do things that I'm sure aren't actually possible. The 12-year old twin girls who did 5-minute long one-handed handstands while twisting and turning were amazing. I don't understand the physics, but it was fun to watch.

No, there's nothing happening on-stage in the photo. I just needed something to go with the write-up.
