Wuzzles hurt my head.
I cannot figure out the Snake (!!!?), the James Murphy Copyright one and the big bottle of tequila.

Speaking of things that are hard to type, at first typing 'Sasquatch' was a real doozy. Fingers have to go all over the place, including all the way over to like North Korea to hit that Q.
It has gotten infinitely easier since I started posting here, however. Practice makes perfect.

Dude, we're talking about Star Wars, not Jorge Luis Borges or David Foster Wallace over here. Good, because if we were, I would have nothing to say...but then again, maybe you'd prefer it that way.

Straight horror and magical realism, respectively. Both heartily recommended. Especially Vonnegut. I have read some Vonnegut - Slaughterhouse-Five and Sirens of Titan, but have only read about Lovecraft. I first found out about lovecraft after going to see the Darkest of the Hillside Thickets when I first moved to Vancouver 5ish years ago. It was a fun performance that was so unique to me at the time. Have you seen them before Gramma?

Neither Lovecraft or Vonnegut were SF writers. This also proves how uninformed I am; perfect for my seat amongst the masses

Empire is a great film; Star Wars is a good film. The rest can go blow a butt trumpet. "Here's where the fun begins" Meh, for the masses, Return of the Jedi is a fantastic movie. Which is great for me. Hey, don't worry about it. at least you still have H.P. Lovecraft, Kurt Vonnegut, and probably thousands of other Science Fiction novelists I am not informed enough to have heard of.

It's a pretty big venue, and can seat 10K. As you say, it's on a Monday. Factor that in with the artists and I imagine it won't sell out, and if it does, there will be plenty of cheap enough tickets come June.
I'm gonna wait til a clear weather foreast comes around before I bite.

So, I'm guessing you stayed on/near Carson Street, then? In my opinion, its the best place to live in Pittsburgh with all of the restaurants and bars. Love it there. What a bummer about your shirt! You going to go to the festival? I could pick another one up for you if you're that serious about getting the photo back to the manager! Catherine, That's very generous of you to offer, but you don't need to worry about it, I'll be good and happy with my citranger.ca Sasquatch t-shirt I was actually fortunate enough to get put up by my employer at a downtown hotel. But when everything closed at about 9pm downtown, we were told to take a taxi towards Southside (I believe was what they called it). Unfortunately it was just as dead there, but looked like a great neighborhood with a lot of character. Interesting story - on the way back to the hotel from Carson Street, we quickly found out our cab driver moonlighted as a pimp. He turned of the meter off and made a couple of quick 'stops' en route to make sure his 'staff' was holding up okay. That's something you'd never see in Vancouver.

Yeah, I just saw this come up for Deer Lake Park in Buraby, B.C. It's on a fucking Monday though, so I don't know. I got a presale e-mail for this today. I'd really like to see both these bands and I've never been to Deer Lake Park before. Know anything about the venue? I'm seriously considering going. If anyone wants the presale info, PM me or some such. It's this Friday 10am-10pm. Wolfhat, It's worth checking out, especially if the weather is nice. Accoustics aren't fantastic (it echoes a bit if I recall correctly); but it has a lawn that's larger and nicer than Malkin Bowl, and you can actually purchase beer inside the venue.

I live 8 blocks from Fat Heads. Love that place, though even their salads exceed 2,000 calories! Their beer is sometimes hit or miss there. I haven't been there in a while because their list was lacking, but now that you mention it, I'll prob stop by there this week! But I still miss good pizza. I was at a conference in Pittsburgh a year and a bit ago, and stumbled upon this place while trying to find a cool place to hang out on a DEAD Tuesday night (even though the Penguins were playing?). I enjoyed the place, tried out lots of different beers and had great conversation with the staff. Before leaving I bought a T-shirt and told the manager I was going to take a picture wearing it at the top of Whistler, as they had zero pictures of Western Canada on their mural. Then United Airlines lost my baggage on my flight home. Never even got to wear the shirt

I am not sure if it has been mentioned yet in this thread... PIZZA If I had that everyday for the rest of my life, I still wouldn't get bored. - Mellow Mushroom LOVE Mellow Mushroom. I used to go there weekly. Unfortunately, I moved and the closest MM is about 3 hours away. Pitt doesn't have ANY good pizza places here. Seriously. They're pizza incompetent. If you ever get the chance to perfect a homemade pizza recipe, I recommend it. That's what Stamps and I have had to do since the pizza here sucks. He's got that recipe down! That's too bad... But you do have Fat Head's...which is like Utopia for beer fans. Does that make up for it?

Me 'N' Ed's is by far my favorite pizza. A lot of people hate the crisp thin crust but it is to die for IMO. If I am ever out that way I will definitely give it a try.

PIZZA
If I had that everyday for the rest of my life, I still wouldn't get bored. - Mellow Mushroom's Buffalo Chicken Pizza - Fida's Pizza in Ottawa, On - Garlic Ranch Dipping sauce from Pizza Pizza - Pizza Hut Lunch Buffet - I'd go back to Kingston, On, get drunk by myself at the Brass just so that I could eat after bar Bubba's Pizza again. - Panago Pizza, only cause it's one block away from my house, and satisfies me when I need a hit.
In my World:
Pizza > Sex > Chocolate >>>>>>>>>>Bright Eyes
What are your favorites in your local neighborhood?
