that sucks. :(

If y'all are still looking for things to do, Quake on the Lake is at Pontiac Lake this weekend. Y'know - speedboat races. Sat & Sun both.

one of these years, I swear I'm going to do Charlie Brown's ghost costume

ingredients: 3 parts curiousity 5 parts patience 3 parts endurance love (season to taste) put into a hell-and-back oven several times, then chill.

It's playing now; I just checked the email they send me each week.

Summa - Neeme Jarvi conducting a work by Arvo Part

I think it's opening at the Main Art very soon

Stephen Chow! You must see Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle.

btw, thx for the Fiend Without a Face trailer! I love that movie (thx, sir graves ghastly!), but I could never remember the name.

thank you!

Oh - one more thing for those who couldn't make it to Saturday's show: VNV announced that they're coming back to the area (tho' not a Detroit show) in November. update: can we get some luv for the tall redheaded bartender? *swoons*

she does have a case.

Area 51?

Nienna. I think. having never actually met her, I'm not sure it's her said crush is on. note 2 Nienna: in case it is, don't trip; crushes are 4-6 week things for me and, since I won't be back at CC 'til September (at the earliest), it'll be long gone by the next time I'm there.

someone stole my clothes right out of the dryer at the laundromat!

Phantasm

given that VNV Nation announced from the stage that they were going to CC after their gig, I expected it to be way more crowded than it was. Then again, I didn't get to CC 'til 2:30 or so. it was really fun for the hour or so that I was there.

in regards to having more oil than the entire Middle East, so what? You completely missed the point: it WILL run out. Even if we developed cheap fusion power tomorrow, we'd only slow it down by half, because that's how much is used to manufacture plastics and other synthetic materials, as well as fertilizers. as for the rest, I'm sorry: seeing the words "Trans Texas Corridor" immediately leads me to disregard everything that follows. Oh well, it was fun while it lasted.

here:

what kind of tea? speaking of which, have you been working on your teatime skillz in preparation for the big move?

play piano...I'm still learning what triggered your last episode of deja vu?

I really don't know. they sold out St. Andrew's last time (on a Sunday night, no less), but there's still tix available for this one. How late is "late" in your case? the lineup, courtesy of the Oakland Press: VNV Nation War Tapes Ayria If the doors open at 8, then Ayria will go on at 9, War Tapes about 10:15 and VNV about 11:20. Assuning that lineup's in the right order,of course. the people mover station is indeed that building you see from the diner. as for parking around St. Andrew's, there's a number of lots and garages (which will charge $10-12), as well as free street parking. Street parking's pretty hard to come by when the Tigers are at Comerica Park, which they will be tomorrow evening. Ice Queen: I couldn't believe that 50% fee, either. What bullshit! The fees on my U2 ticket were $19 on a $52 ticket...but that show's in Toronto. I'm going to take my chances at the box office; hopefully, I can get there before 6 PM.

make something to eat.
