The alien puppet from Asteroid City, an impossibly gangly gray-green creature with big round eyes.
Two of the vending machines form Asteroid City, designed to look as if they’re from midcentury. One is pink and vends stockings, one is green and vends martinis.
The canoe from Moonrise Kingdown, a wooden canoe with simple paintings of water and a buffalo on its side and a rough carving of a raccoon on the prow.

Last night Robert Wilkinson told a story at the Schooner about going into Oarfolk in 1977 and Peter Jesperson gave him a taped copy of David Bowie’s new single “Heroes.” A week later, Robert had his band Flamingo covering Heroes, and Robert has been playing the song ever since, including last night.

They never catch up. They just talk about stuff when it's too late to do anything, and yell at those of us who talk about it when it can still be fixed.
