Saturday Night’s All Right

For hot pants, anyway


Migratory hot pants
A little late, but what the hell. Saturday night I went out to Burt’s to see The Gracchi, Unit 7 Drain and Ya Ya Boom. Great show. Took along some friends that would’ve never gone on their own, and they were in love with life outside the fishbowl.

    Get Me Out of Here


    Gmooh: For the totally gutless.
    Here's a bizarre little Web service I just came across: A company that will call you at any pre-arranged time you request. The idea is that it's a way to plan getting out of a potentially bad date, boring meeting or never-ending conversation with that friend of yours you have to visit but have a hard time escaping. It also seems to work as a message service (e.g. it will send birthday messages to your friends). It's free, and it looks like the only condition of service is that you allow the company to send you occasional e-mails. They claim they don't give your info to third parties.

    The age of technology continues.
