I am afraid I have to semi-cancel brunch on Saturday the 10th, because of work constraints. Instead of having one at my place, I am going to organize one out somewhere. For those who want to meet up with Raquel (and who in their right mind would not), check here for more details in a few days.
Dawn: Any luck? Willow: If you define luck as the absence of success--plenty.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
It's July, the time is fast approaching and it's been awhile since I posted on of these, so here goes:

The Image Verification people at Cafepress have stopped being big poopyheads, and have un-blocked the Buffista logo images, on the condition that they will remove them again if anyone from Warner Brothers complains about us. Anyone who wishes to order F2F merchandise may therefore do so, as long as they promise not to wear it on the WB lot.

I was just made aware of a great site for sending books, etc. to soldiers in Iraq. It's booksforsoldiers.com. There are also some listings for Iraqi children's needs.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Lightbulbs is open to discuss the following proposal:
Proposal: To have a Book Club thread wherein a specific book (or books) would be discussed Buffista style on a specific time rotation (weekly, biweekly or monthly.) All the fine details, including method of book selection, number of books per rotation, length of rotation, and length of discussion period, would be hammered out exclusively in the proposed thread by the denizens thereof.
Purpose: The purpose of the thread is to accomodate an expressed desire by a number of Buffistas in Literary to have such a thread to allow focused and uninhibited discussion on a particular text as well as providing us with an opportunity and excuse to read and discuss books that may be outside our usual genre.
Discussion starts here: DXMachina "Voting Discussion: We're Screwing In Light Bulbs AIFG!" Jul 5, 2004 5:21:42 pm PDT

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights
Since Annabel turns three months old tomorrow, I've decided to declare my informal maternity leave from freelancing officially OVER.
So, if you're looking for a job and need help with resumes and cover letters or know someone in that situation, please visit my website or send me an email.

Final Press post about July 31st F2F aka Wild Rumpus.
I believe everyone who wanted an invite received one--if I missed you, please let me know so I can send one along.
Gentle reminder to please email me by July 10th to let me know if you are coming (and if you're bringing anyone). Also, I'm trying to compile an exact number of sleepovers for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night so I can find soft places for everyone to crash, so please send that info along too.
Obviously if you are flying or training in and need a pick up or drop off, that info would be appreciated ASAP as well.
Looks like it's going to be a great turn out of both Buffistas and other friends!
All future discussion of this event will be in F2F thread to avoid spamming this one any further.
Thanks!
