So ... my Lenten observance being at an end, I'm checking back into the Hipbase this morning. Six weeks is a long time to go into total Hip lockdown. The only glimpse I caught in the last six weeks was the Juno performance -- i was watching something else; my wife walks in, takes the remove and flips to the Juno broadcast and says "I thought you might want to see this" -- they were about halfway through YNTO. So, guiltily, I watched the end of it.
Anyway, can anyone gimme a quick Top Five-style rundown of what's been going on in Hipland since the end of February? What'd I miss?
