Attention Poor Bohemians!

Frice by David Choe

South First Fridays is tomorrow evening (Nov. 3). Come check out San Jose's art scene FREE and then enjoy liquidy libations at the SoFA Lounge - if you're lucky, I'll give you smoochies and steal your cigarettes. See you there!

The Bestest!

When you give up one addiction, you usually need another to be marginally successful at the task at hand. My addiction, Myspace. I hate it. I love it. I want to get off of it. Fortunately for me, I found The Best of Craigslist. I've been a cruiser, oh, that sounds naughty, of Craigslist for quite some time now. For the most part I would look at the apartment listings and missed connections, not to mention the scores of everyday nudies in the m4m/w4w/m4w/w4m/mm4w/mw4mwwhtmd - you get the idea.
However, what I discovered was that some of the greatest short stories, particularly slice of life (which many of you know are some of my favorite) exist in the "Best Of" arena. Take for example the woman who urinated on her lover. With a quick lesson in dialogue, this would be a fabulous read - it already is and should be filmed.
Another, is the mystery car stall pooper. Trust me, I smell your pain. Excuse me, poop break...

Much better.
Now that my stomach is empty, lets hear from the waitress - Something about a Tori Amos song comes to mind.
So I urge you, dear reader, the next time you are in need of a shoulder to cry on, a story to lift your spirits or something to make you laugh entirely too loud on the 8th floor of the San Jose State libary, take a peek-see at the Best-Of, Craigslist that is.

P.S.
Here's my favorite one to date - it's the bestest.
