Important F2F Hotel Update Information here: KristinT "F2F 3: Who's Bringing the Guacamole?" Apr 11, 2005 1:03:52 pm PDT

On a personal note, I know that there are many reasons why it is difficult to make the trek down to NOLA, and I know a lot of people have decided finances aren't going to allow the trip. However, if there is a way you can come, I just want to say please do. The F2F is always such a great party, and we're going to have such a fantastic time. I can't wait to see everyone, and I hope that we continue the tradition of throwing a party that scares the locals (though perhaps a tall order in New Orleans, I have faith in us).

Join us! There will be corsets and kilts and glitter and too much candy! There will be great music and foamy Buffistas!

We're just six weeks away! Woot!

I just found a place, [link] , that sells bootlegs of hard-to-find 80s shows including Max Headroom and Wizards and Warriors.

MOVEABLE FEAST [link] is a Baltimore-based organization that provides hot meals and nutritional counseling to homebound HIV/AIDS patients.

My bandmate Joe is participating in the RIDE FOR THE FEAST, a 2-day, 140-mile bicycle ride benefiting MOVEABLE FEAST [link]

This Saturday night we will be rocking our asses off to help Joey ride his off in May! All money from this show will be going to Joe's collection fund for the ride. Here are the details

Hear Ye, Hear Ye.

A conversation on sock puppetry spilled from Bitches to B'cacy where a proposal was put forth, and it now lives on in mutated form in Lightbulbs.

Would any of you more language-geeky Buffistas (oh, who am I kidding, the Venn diagram of sets of "the language-geeky" and "the Buffistas" -- well, let's just say one wholly contains the other, okay?) be willing to write a paragraph of support for the Historical Dictionary of American Slang? If it's a book that you have used with pleasure, or drooled over in the library or bookstore, we'd love to hear about it as we are applying for a major NEH grant and would like to show that "reg'lar people" love it too.

Profile addy is good. It doesn't have to be long (although I would prefer it be longer than "HDAS r0x0r! W00t1!!!1omgONE!"). I need your Real Name attached in order for it to appear in the grant.

If you haven't seen the Historical Dictionary of American Slang, it's worth a side trip next time you go to the library. Seriously. I'm not just saying that. I mean, check out pages 443-448 of Vol. I, just for instance.

Canucks, Vision TV are rebroadcasting Wonderfalls. They apparently started at the beginning of the month, but I just saw an ad yesterday. Tonight's ep, at 9pm EDT, is Karma Chameleon.

Another Ebay spam is making the rounds. ANY mail from Ebay should be forwarded, intact, to spoof@ebay.com. They will let you know right away if it is real or not. Do not click on any of the links, or respond in any fashion.

I'm having a big yard sale this coming Saturday from 8 - 1ish. I'm getting rid of some large bookcases, a small recliner, a daybed, assorted books, maybe some CDs and DVDs, plus much of the usual crap that one gets rid of when one moves.

If anyone is interested in seeing what's available, contact me at my profile addy for directions, etc.

I have an extra ticket to see Hello Again Thursday night at 7:30. (This is not the show I've been complaining about in Natter). Let me know via profile addy if you are interested.
