But I think it might be a tad too late as an Ancient Arctic ice shelf collapsed, an inhabited island disappears under rising sea levels for the first time in history. And the same day, George Bush, the guy who started driling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, announces he wants to save the Polar Bears.

Face Lift for Bridge of Death. Sounds really cool, but its just a paint-job for the Patullo, by NINJAS!!!!!

Critical Mass tonight, ending with VeloFusion at the Anza with C.R. Avery, Megan Rose, and DJ Moses.

Salaam Salon tonight at Memelab, 1814 pandora st. W/ Shannon Fitzgerald & 'Lawrence Thrasher', Jennifer Clarke, Wa Ha Ha, Travis Jones, Sgem, Marie Horstead, Michael Undem, Julie Gendron, Liam Wake, and Jesse Scott.

Toquefest tonight. Although they won't tell us where,. I'm guessing Roundhouse. 10 films, 3 bands and 1 DJ. With Cheerleader Camp, Treacherous Machete, Kenny Roux, and Tanya Pea.

Ha! Thanks for the link about the Pattullo. Actually, the paint is licked on by kittens. Mutant kittens, you know, cause of the asbestos.

"an inhabited island disappears under rising sea levels for the first time in history"? Apparently someone's never heard about a couple little places by the names of Lemuria and Atlantis.
