Miserable Metreon:
My friend Evan’s blog pointed me to an article that spells out what we all knew from the beginning: That the Sony Metreon here in San Francisco is a big, fucking joke.
Downed Servers:
Central Booking’s server was down today. Now it’s back up. Sorry everybody.
Hardly Working:
Had a conversation with Derek Powazek last night. Seems there’s no work out there even for someone as talented as him. Jeez lord, show some mercy. Please.
29 Films:
My friend Rory’s site is up. His 29 Films may be the next Dreamland Studios. Or View Askew.
I hope he remembers the little people.
(Barely) Waking Life…
Obligatory Waking Life review: A beautiful film to look at but overwritten to the point of insanity, like someone tried to film a staged reading of their undergraduate thesis. Brings up a good deal of interesting issues but they get lost in the self-involved, rudderless presentation. When it ended, I left quickly.
Wither Weekend?
There’s a weekend around here somewhere. I just know it.
Scary Ass Sh*t…
Some jerk decided to follow me home from the East Bay and threatened me with violence. I guess I cut him off. I guess. I don’t really know. Scared the shit out of me. Asshole.
Now I’m afraid to get on the road. This is why I take the train.
Central Booking Feed and Read:
The first ever Central Booking Feed and Read was a raging success. Thanks to Suzan, my friends Jo and Arkady, and Super Intern Chris for helping out. Kristin of Booboolina and Jay of Openwire stopped by to lend their support. As did several folk from the CB forums.
We’ll be discussing the whole wingding over here.
Taxi Theatrics:
On a cab ride over to the Haight, the driver talked my ear off about his theatre company and their upcoming fundraiser. I admired his moxie, loud as it may have been. So here it is.
The Morning After…
Plastic plates. Everywhere. I was not born an event planner.
