Would you guys please help me by tweeting my LJ entry @GM? Or reposting the link in your Livejournals/Facebooks/anywhere?

I really, really...I'm begging for your help. Please.

Dinner tonight AND tomorrow night with Tom Scola so that he can see as many LAistas as possible! See F2F for details, and please let me know if you are coming ASAP so I can make reservations.

I have free Spotify accounts to give out. Email me at my profile addy if you want one. I'm really enjoying the service, though I still use Pandora to expose me to music that I wouldn't otherwise be aware of.

Ooops. Apocalypse, right?

If you are a Daily Science Fiction subscriber, a very short story from me will be in your inbox on Monday. If not, the story will appear on the Daily Science Fiction website on Sept. 12. (eeep!)

SFistas! I will be in your city from Sept 8 to 12! Then I will be taking a side-trip to Seattle for a couple days, then I will be returning to SF on the 15th before leaving on the 17th! I would like to meet-up with as many of you as possible. We can discuss our options in the F2F thread.

I also (of course) have pictures of my trip so far, starting here, and continuing here.

Hey Buffistas, a friend of a friend's daughter has gone missing in Germany -- last seen in Nordrhein-Westfalen area in Germany.

If you're on Facebook, you can see the details here: [link]

Will you share it on Facebook, please?

Also, for those of you on Twitter, I tweeted it here: [link]

I'm asking you to please retweet my message. There are a lot of us and we know people from all over, so I'm hoping we can boost the signal. Thanks!

edit...

I just came back to post that the kids have been found and saw Vortex beat me to the punch. Thanks V. Thanks, Buffistas.

I just checked out and this has been posted

Boys and girls, it's over! The police in Hamburg have them. They nabbed them in the Reeperbahn train station

Chicagoland Buffistas are strongly encouraged to check out Farmhouse, a new restaurant that I have a familial interest in. It's at 228 West Chicago, and I understand the drinks are great!
