Due to a change I had to make on the database end of things, everyone who had been set to be remembered, will unset. You can just switch yourself back. Please holler in admin if you need your password reset--I am very sorry--I couldn't work out a way around it.

I'm going to lock the tables and run a full database backup in five minutes. I have no idea how long it should last, but I will cancel it if it looks insane.

Recount - that HBO movie?
It's Danny Strong's! (Somehow that escaped me.)
TWOP interviews Danny Strong and David Bianculi reviews it.
Oops...wrong thread. Moved to Beep Me.
I know a lot of Buffistas are on LJ, and I know we like to vote. Right now, there's an election going on for the LJ Advisory Board.
Scroll down for a list of candidates and links to their platforms.

(At this point, I don't have any recommendations other than: please don't vote for jameth. He would not make a good Buffista.)
LAistas: I just got a notification from Thrillist that might interest you cupcake lovers:

To celebrate their latest opening, Crumbs is giving away free 'cakes to their first 1000 customers, from pistachio and carrot to childhood faves like Reese's Pieces and Oreo Cookie -- the perfect meta-dessert after a meal of hamburger-flavored ribs.

F2F fund update:
We've got a little over $1100 in the fund right now. That covers the 4 hour room rental for Prom. (Yay, Prom!) Right now, the room is scheduled for 8:30pm to 12:30pm. If we want to stay in the room longer, the rate is charged every half hour after ($137.50 per half hour).
We still need to cover the hospitality suite, somewhere between $275 and $300 (I'm not sure how taxes are going to beef up the actual cost, the room is $129 per night.) Also, if we want to stock the room with munchies and a limited selection of booze and soda, etc., we could use more of the extremely generous donations I've been receiving.
Donations may be made through Paypal to: dinky40 at charter dot net. If you want to mail a check, send me an e-mail and I'll reply with my snail mail address.
