Hamlet on the Boston Common
The Commonwealth Shakespeare Company's production of Hamlet is not only free but it's outstanding! If you're in the Boston area then you really should go see it between now and August 7, 2005. I have a short attention span and don't sit still very well and I managed to make it through the ...
SoozMix Volume 5: Game Night at True Grounds
It probably only takes about five minutes on sooz.com to figure out I am a music fan. One of the best things about organizing my own events is being able to pick the music. I put together a playlist of tunes for Game Night @ True Grounds on July 20th. iTunes seems ...

Weblogger Vacation Fund
Sometimes we all need to get away from our weblogs for a little while. With that in mind I think we need some sort of weblogger vacation fund. Whoever gets the most nominations is awarded the funds that must be used towards a vacation. No online access while on this vacation -- ...

Learning How to Count
I just sent an email to my event newsletter list and mixed up the numbering on the "URL Takeaways" section. If you noticed this error ... oops. I can actually count to six. That's what I get for not having a second set of eyeballs look it over first. If you're not ...
