You have been warned. <<< =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= Yes, it's one of those far-too-frequent bare-bones newsletters. More next time. Sorry. For those of you who've sent me mail, please be patient. On tap this time: Quick news items Upcoming SotRT events =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= Subject: Quick news items Sound bites: No time. Must hurry! MERV GRIFFIN! Local news: KBTC's current pledge period is almost over. Give. Now. The annual Rusting TARDIS picnic was rather lightly attended (at least compared to last year's blow-out). Everyone should thank Ryan for insuring excellent weather (as always). Coming up at the Fremont Almost Free Outdoor Cinema: August 24 - "[A Hard?] Days Night". B.Y.O. seating starting at 7pm, located behind the Red Door Ale House, 670 N. 34th St. Program starts at dusk. $5 donation. There are prizes for best costumes and "most original seating". Miscellany: Seen "Trainspotting" yet? Well, go back and look for the in-jokes. The favorite one I heard so far (I haven't seen it yet, but I will) is that during a scene in a bar (that is meant to evoke the milk bar in "A Clockwork Orange") a song by "Heaven 17" can be heard in the background. I'll bet no more than two or three of you got that "Sound Bite" reference. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= -= Subject: Upcoming SotRT events Aug 28: Video night Round Table Pizza, 5111 25th Ave. NE, Seattle Sep 03: Social Round Table Pizza, 5111 25th Ave. NE, Seattle Sep 11: Video night Round Table Pizza, 5111 25th Ave. NE, Seattle Sep 17: Social Location to be announced.
