I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Premiere magazine Buffy S4 Giveaway.
They're giving away three copies, the catch is that by entering you sign up for their online newsletter (and, I'm assuming, other spam that they don't mention). Still, free Buffy DVDs!

We called Best Buy, and it is a scam for card #'s. The site should be shut down by now, but just a heads up if you've recieved anything similar.
Edit: And in a strange bit of, I dunno -but something, the e-mail comes from Drusilla Fwpreg.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.
An update, or rather, further information, about the Best Buy scam: my husband got the same email (different merchandise, of course), someone hitting Best Buy with an order placed on our corporate account. This was yesterday.
My husband's business partner says he spoke with Best Buy and the scam seemed to be aimed straight at them.
This was yesterday, so the site may not be shut down yet.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
NYCistas - I will be returning to NYC with The Pee Wee Fist next Saturday, June 28. We're opening for Clem Snide and Lisa Germano at the Bowery Ballroom. We are not playing at the second show on Sunday. I can't promise that I'll be wearing pleather, but it should be fun nonetheless.
Somervillians (and surrounding 'burgs) - The same line-up will be at the Paradise in Boston next Friday, June 27.
Any questions - email me or take it to the music thread (I can never keep up with Natter).

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Attention Heartland-istas!
I will be travelling in and about your fair domain from (roughly) July 26-August 4 when I head out to Mt. Carmel Illinois for a family reunion. I'm flying in and out of Cincinnati and am looking to hit Chicago, Milwaukee, and wherever else the rare and lovely Buffista Midwesternus can be found.
Profile addy is good.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
Minor braggity-brag and pathetic plea for audiences:
One of the smaller local papers published a rather incoherent but incontestably positive review of the show I'm currently in here (two reviews on that page; "Impossible Marriage" is halfway down).
Any localistas who have even the remotest interest in coming would be hugely, vastly welcome, as we are starving for audiences and could in particular use a sizeable influx of persons with a hearty appreciation of the absurd who are not afraid to actually laugh out loud, both qualifications which I am fairly certain Buffistas do not lack.

Register for the MoveOn.org PAC Primary
In most presidential primary processes, pundits, pollsters and wealthy donors determine the outcome long before the actual primaries. By the time the rest of us cast our ballots, the nomination is typically a done deal. The MoveOn.org PAC primary will allow hundreds of thousands of voters to speak out now, adding their weight to the campaigns of their choice. Voting in the MoveOn.org PAC primary starts Tuesday, June 24 and will last 48 hours. Existing MoveOn members will be sent a unique email ballot, which is good for one vote only. People new to MoveOn should click here to register to vote in the primary.
Each of the nine declared presidential candidates has written a letter to the MoveOn membership and responded to seven interview questions. To read their letters and interviews and for more information about the MoveOn.org PAC candidate engagement process, please go here: [link]
A press release on the MoveOn PAC primary and a letter from Wes Boyd about the Gephardt flap are also available.
