Today around 3:45, I found myself having the following conversation:
Security: ... What do you have in your bag?
Me: Sorry, what?
Security: Is that a fork? Do you have a fork in your bag?
Me: Er, yes. Sorry.
Security: Do you have anything else in there?
Me: I, uh yeah, my cell phone, a Nintendo DS... a copy of Tristram Shandy...
Security: You're going to have to check that fork in.
And that is how I found myself in the basement of the Daley Center checking a fork in to an evidence locker while being laughed at by every security guard there.
Tied with this in surreality, I would also like to point out the risks of IMax cinema. You see, there's a certain scene in Batman, when Harvey Dent walks out of the court room and into a windowed hallway with a panoramic view of Gotham. It turns out, when I walked out of the elevators on the 28th floor of the Daley center, that's exactly where I was. And so I immediately expected to turn the corner and find Harvey Dent, because somehow my mind completely overwrote what I was seeing with the movie. Thank you, IMax, for matching proportions so well in that particular scene. And also, thank you Daley Center security, for protecting Harvey Dent (and possibly The Batman) from any fork-related crime I may have committed.
