What do these symbols mean?

Whether pondering the unexpected effects of her near-death experience with cinnamon, or the irony of being caught arguing over a parking space at the Museum of Tolerance, Paula Poundstone's razor-sharp wit and off-kilter world view never cease to entertain. She is so quick and funny that audience members often leave complaining that their cheeks hurt from laughter and debating whether the random people she talked to were "plants." Fans of Poundstone's many award-winning television appearances and specials know that she can improvise with a crowd like a great jazz musician, swinging effortlessly from one direction to another...always without a plan, without a net, but always amazing.
