Buffistas

I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

I hope this is the appropriate place to post this...

ATTENTION ALL NYC AND LA BUFFISTAS:

"The Singing Detective," directed by a really good friend of ours, opens today. PLEASE go see it and give it a little business. Keith is not only one of the nicest and best people I know, the film is smart and interesting. Robert Downey, Jr. is amazing and, for those of you who care about such things (like, uh, me) Jeremy Northam is naked a lot and having all kinds of dangerous sex (Oh, with Carla Gugino and Robin Wright Penn, for those of you who care about les girls). The film has gotten mixed reviews, but it's ambitious and dark and snarky and sexy and I think most Buffistas would dig it. Ths opening weekend makes all the difference.

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

Hey all.

As some of you may know, Maya and I are planning a big Angel party in Los Angeles on February 21st, 2004.

We do need some volunteers for the event for things like passing out name badges, working the auction tables, decorating, stocking the hospitality suite, and such and sundry.

If you're going to be in the LA area that weekend, and don't mind lending a hand for a couple of hours, please email me at Allyson at emahollywood dot com and let me know what you'd like to do.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

For all those attending the doings next Saturday in San Francisco, please check the Peopleforum F2F thread in Buffista Refuge (members folders). We're trying to coordinate the Saturday morning jaunt to Zazie, for pancakes.

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

In case you don't see it in Bitches, ChiKat, thank you for the Blankey! It's snugglesome and a gorgeous color and makes neat jingly noises and I must keep the covetous kitten away.
