Men's costumes, too. Including THE browncoat: [link]

Can everyone who wants to be on the Eyes tree post so in When Come Back Bring Tape? There are three sets of unaired eps in the wild.

msbelle, JZ, libkitty -- let's do it this way.

msbelle takes the first person on the list, JZ the second, and libkitty the third.

Then msbelle's person takes the fourth, JZ's the fifth, and libkitty's the sixth, ad infinitum, or the end, whichever comes first.

LAST REMINDER!

X-posted with the Somervillains email list:

Yes, Deb Grabien is in town and she is staying at Chez B & FAQ-Wife. We would be happy to host a post dinner get-together at our house this Saturday night, Dec. 10. I thought we could go out to dinner somewhere nearby -- Elephant Walk maybe? -- and then proceed to our house for dessert and other goodies.

In other news, I will be performing Christmas Carols, along with some punk and new wave hits, with my trusty theremin the following day, Sunday, Dec. 11, at the Cyclorama in the South End as part of the Bazaar Bizarre, the hipster crafts fair. I'll be doing three short sets, tentatively scheduled for 2pm, 4pm, and 6:20pm. [link]

In other other news, I'll be donning my Santa cap once again as a tour guide for the Somerville Illuminations Holiday Lights tour. I will be on trolley B for the 6:15pm and 8:45pm tours. Tickets go on sale today and it does sell out fairly quickly. If you'd like to go, but can't easily get to Davis Square to buy tickets, let me know and I'll get them for you (you can pay me back the night of the tour). [link]

I hope you can make one or more of these events! RSVP is requested but not mandatory. Questions, etc. should go to the F2F thread or email.

Since some of you are already 1947 fans, I'll post Kim's email request here:

***********

Gentle reader,

As you may know, I maintain, with my demented little buddy Nathan, an historical true crime blog called 1947project. Each day we feature a forgotten Los Angeles crime from 1947, and quite often we visit the scene and share how it looks today.

Thanks in large part to the kind readers who nominated us last week, we are officially in the running for a Gridskipper Urb award as one of the Best Los Angeles Blogs. Yea! Only we are up against our pal Rodger at 8763 Wonderland. Boo!

In any case, we'd really appreciate it if you could click over and, if you like what we're doing at 1947project, cast a vote before December 26.

Our catagory, Best Los Angeles Blog, is near the bottom of the page, under Best New York Blog, here:

thanking you in advance for your vote, I am, yr pal, Kim Editrix
