CHRISTMAS CAROL TOWN HALL
TOMORROW!! I will be on a plane to London tomorrow—for work. But THEN! I fly back in to New York to see @neil-gaiman perform as Charles Dickens! (At Town Hall!)
Last I checked there were still tickets left. If you can make it, I hear tell Mr. Gaiman will be wearing a top hat. :)
By the way, Town Hall is nifty. Think about supporting them!

The Prague astronomical clock is a medieval astronomical clock attached to the Old Town Hall in Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic.
The clock was first installed in 1410, making it the third-oldest astronomical clock in the world and the oldest clock still in operation.
The clock mechanism has three main components – the astronomical dial, representing the position of the Sun and Moon in the sky and displaying various astronomical details; statues of various Catholic saints stand on either side of the clock; "The Walk of the Apostles", an hourly show of moving Apostle figures and other sculptures, notably a figure of a skeleton that represents Death, striking the time; and a calendar dial with medallions representing the months. According to local legend, the city will suffer if the clock is neglected and its good operation is placed in jeopardy; a ghost, mounted on the clock, was supposed to nod its head in confirmation. According to the legend, the only hope was represented by a boy born on New Year's night.

Erected between 1401 and 1455, the Town Hall is the only remaining medieval building of the Grand-Place and is considered a masterpiece of civil Gothic architecture and more particularly of Brabantine Gothic. Since 1998, is also listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, as part of the square.
