If any Buffistas with illustration experience would like to make some extra cash with a potentially sizeable freelance blackline illustration assignment over the course of the next 7 weeks, please contact me at the following address:
matt@rainbowconcepts.com
It doesn't pay a great deal in comparison to the rates pro artists like Pete can command, so it's more a college student/recent grad sort of thing. But if my time estimate is correct the total assignment should work out to $2000 for approximately 20 to 25 hours/week between now and 9/22. We may be able to use someone who could only take on half the assignment (50 illustrations rather than 100) in conjunction with another artist.
The ability to work electronically in Mac-compatible drawing programs or to scan your work for submission would be a serious plus, but we can work with traditional pen & ink methods as well.
F2F Update:
City Pimpage will be available on or around (if changes are necessary) August 12th
The city vote will be held from the 18th to the 22nd of August.

Apparently this is a pretty well-hit blog. I've written several pieces for this week's show... getting all wibbly at the thought of god-knows-who from the interbunny seeing it.
Buffy the Vampire Slayer - Limited Edition Complete Series Box Set!
You'll get the previously released 7 seasons of Buffy (39 discs), plus a special bonus disc containing a brand new documentary featuring Joss Whedon. Each box will be individually numbered, and will contain a signed letter from Joss Whedon, and a comprehensive book filled with episode listings and memorable Buffy quotes. This will set you back a suggested price of $199.98.

Re: Browncoat Ball 2005 and 2006
In deference to the Big Damn Movie and all the shiny premier shindigs,
the Browncoat Ball will not be held in 2005. But it will be back in
2006 to celebrate all things Firefly and Serenity!
We will be putting out a call for groups to host Browncoat Ball 2006
soon. If your regional group would like to be considered for hosting
this event, please send an e-mail to info@browncoatball.com.

On the Baltimore theme:
Rachel from Atomic Books says this of the owner?manager? of the Golden West Cafe in Hampden. [link]
Thomas is a HUGE Buffy fan. He's going to have Buffy Night at the Golden West Bar. He's bartending and making Slayers: a delicious sounding concoction of berry infused vodka, pomegranate & lime juice and something.
He's showing 2 "choice" episodes every Sunday. Starting not this Sunday, but the next!
Just a note, if anyone's in Scotland at the moment (and why WOULDN'T they be?)
My best friend's one man show is playing at the Fringe right now:
Submissive Barbi.
If you are near it or know anyone who is near it, it must be seen.
