'Serenity'
Having a party? Organizing a local F2F? Know something that we all really need to know? Announce it! Want to discuss anything posted here? Take it to Natter. Any natter here will be deleted.
In the interest of promoting things me-related, here's a short list of guilty pleasure movies I wrote about on The Screengrab, which is Nerve.com's movie blog.
Warning! Nerve is a smut purveyor elsewhere on the site (but rarely on The Screengrab, because that's how we roll: classy), so your work computer may come to believe you are trolling for porn instead of my bad writing. Either can result in job loss.
Looks like I'll be interviewing James Kyson Lee (Ando from Heroes) on my radio show tomorrow (Friday) morning at around 9:15am. 88.1FM in Cambridge, MA. Live stream at [link] Podcast will be uploaded later that day.
Remember the Secret Santa Exchange?
If not, then this is a reminder: Anyone interested in exchanging small presents with other Buffistas during the holiday season, email me at my profile address with your Buffista name and a snail-mail location to which people can send your loot.
Please try to email me by November 23. I'll match names and send out notices by November 24, to allow for lots of present buying/making and mailing time.
Your truly,
Tiny Jewish not-Santa
All the Buffista Secret Santa notices have now been sent out. If you didn't get one, or if there are any other problems, email me.
P.S. If you wanted to take part and forgot, don't despair! There will be a Slacker Secret Santa exchange, as well, just like in every year. I'll wait to announce it only after Thanksgiving, though, for a true slacker schedule.
NBC January Schedule, highlights:
Friday Night Lights premieres January 16th at 8 Central
Chuck, Heroes and Life won't be back until February.
No Merlin on the schedule.
Not NBC: The Obamas will be interviewed by Barbara Walters at 10/9 Central tonight: Wednesday November 26th.
(Also from the Futon Critic.)
If 10,000 people donate $1, this family can keep their home. She's got over $2000 since Tuesday night. This could work! If everyone does a little, it adds up to a lot.
an update on the above -- success. in 5 days.
I have a post up on the potential for Green Investment in solving global warming and stimulating the economy. Deals a bit with the nuts & bolts of where to spend public money, vs. where to rely on private investment. [link]
Slacker Secret Santa: All of you who want to exchange presents with other Buffistas but haven't mailed me about it yet, this is your chance!
Please send your info (board name and snail-mail address) to my profile address until the 10th of December. By then, I'll match you up to pairs of givers and recipients, and let you know which is who.
Your truly,
Tiny Jewish not-Santa
