Moovie nite note: Friday, 1/26

The Oscar nominations came out and I have hardly seen any of the nominees. The heck with it.

Stranger than Fiction
, the Will Ferrell comedy, which I don't think has been nominated for anything, is playing at the Crest this Friday. Let's go the the 7:00 pm show, with coffee-an' afters at the LFP Third Place Books.

If you want to to dinner beforehand as well, let me know. Otherwise, see you there!

The Crest Cinema Center.

Stranger than Fiction: precis; website.

Lake Forest Park Third Place Books.

Oscars 2006

Speaking of Oscar: For three years running, I have hosted an Academy Awards bash, watching the show on big and/or multi-screens. Maybe it's because I don't have much connection to most of the nominees this year, but I'm wondering if we don't want to mix it up a bit. We could do an alternative gala, or even an anti-Oscar party. Just wanted to let you know that I'm open to suggestions - let 'em fly!

Two Poetry Readings

Hey folks ~

My brother Chris has two poetry readings coming up that look pretty strange and interesting. I'm thinking of going to the first one for sure -- dancing, poetry, and music. And unrehearsed!

Both readings should be quite entertaining.

If you want to get dinner beforehand or carpool, lemme know. Otherwise, see you there!


PS: We were going to do a Samuel L. Jackson Big Wall Spectration, but decided an event of that nature needed further deliberation. We'll do it soon, though.
