Pan's Labyrinth

7:20pm, Thursday February 1
Fifth Aveune Cinemas

It's a movie. Let me know and I'll make sure there are enough seats.

And, people, tag your posts.

They've let me loose...

On the airwaves.


For the next few weeks, every Friday from 1pm to 2pm, I'm gonna be on the radio!

CJSF 90.1 FM. I'll doing what they call a Jambalaya spot. Essentially playing songs from the New Music playlist, giving my 2 cents and generally rocking the house. This should give me time until I come up with my own radio show idea.

Please listen and call in to wish me a happy birthday! Haha. You can listen online as well, so you have no excuse, other than that whole, "I'll be working" thing.

Anyways, Stay tuned for more info on upcoming shows.

The B&B Presents: Ladies Night

Tonight is the second night of previously screened (at this movie night) films by B-town. Tonight is all about the ladies getting their sweet sweet revengeance. Two beautifully filmed, yet violent pictures from Asia.

Chan Wook Park’s final episode in his lauded Vengeance Trilogy. Started in 2002 with Sympathy for Mister Vengeance and followed up by Old Boy these independently watchable films are known for their cinematic beauty intertwined with violence. Sympathy for Lady Vengeance is said to play like a heady opera of wrongful imprisonment and elaborate brutal revenge.

9:00 pm

This film from the Toho studios a favorite in this house for the Japanese Exploitation genre stars one of our favorite actresses of the 70s Meiko Kaji. Kaji - with her distinctively capturing looks of death - plays Lady Snoowblood who, through the brutal slaying of her parents, lives for only one reason, bloody revenge!

Reminder: Brenton and Lindsey B-day Saturday!

Just a reminder that there will be a birthday celebration for Brenton and Lindsey this Saturday at Kat, Lindsey, Jaime et al's house this Saturday night (I know, et al, haven't met the fourth roommate). If you know either of them, enjoy karaoke or just want to be social that evening, I highly recommend you get the address from Kat.

I've been asked to host Karaoke for them and will be updating the song list with the February discs (which include most top 10 spanning different genres up to the first week of January). Check with Kat on the start time, I imagine 7-7:30pm.

EFS February Heads Up

Hey kids,

Before I depart for Sin City and a four day booze bender, I though I would give you a heads up on next month's EFS:

Evil Film School Presents: New York Sleazy

When: Friday, February 23rd

Two lost gems from the golden age of exploitation.

9:15pm - Who Killed Teddy Bear [1965]: Post "Rebel" Sal Mineo is a creepy stalker with serious sexual hang-ups. First rate trash that's still creepy.

Friend of some Clubhousers on CBC

Bob mentioned this months bag on his website, but I thought I would let you guys know about it here now that it appears to have gone legit:

Heart of the World campaign.

More art is better.

Nerd Party!

It looks as though I am getting my two extra wiimotes today or tomorrow! I would've liked to have had 4 remotes, but Wii Play comes out next month and it comes with an extra wiimote.

I'd like to schedule a Wii Party for Saturday late afternoon prior to going to Body Worlds (that forces us to leave around 8:30 to get dinner and to Science World in a timely fashion).

I'm thinking of being ready for gaming around 3:30-4pm. Earlier birds will get guaranteed play time on the game(s) of their choice. Multiplayer games (number of people able to play at one time) as as follows:

Need for Speed Carbon (2)
Elebits (3 - limited to number of wiimotes)
Rayman Raving Rabbids (3 - limited to number of wiimotes)
Wii Sports (2, 3, or 4 - one wiimote is shared for bowling, boxing is 2-player only)

I do not have Zelda: Twilight Princess at this time as I have leant it out in exchange for Need for Speed.

House rules are as follows:

1. The wrist strap stays on all the time.
2. Mach 10 speeds are not required for the system to recognize your movements.
3. Share. I may have troubles adhering to this one, but I'll try.
4. The wrist strap stays on all the time.

Anyway, let me know if you're interested, feel free to bring snacks or drinks as dinner will be late.

Body Worlds

I am going to order tickets tomorrow for Body World 3 at Science World for Saturday,

If you are interested, Be prepared to attend at 4am on the morning of Saturday, but I'll aim for an evening spot. There are only 125 spots available for each time slot, so I am looking for solid responses by tomorrow 9am to ensure a respectable hour. If you are interested in going during any hour on the Saturday, post in the comments.

Rates are $20 for adults, $17 for students, with a $2/ticket surcharge for "convenience".

I'll post the time on here as soon as the tickets are ordered, for people who are waffling and would rather buy tickets on their own.

Rime

7pm Saturday for dinner. Let me know asap if you're planning on coming so I can make reservations (assuming I still can.)

Blogger Switch - A message for authors

Scott illuminated the fact that the Clubhouse has a scant 6 authors now because I switched over to the new Blogger (because it's more awesome and blog authors who are logged on don't have to type in the stupid key pass phrase to post comments).

To remedy this problem, follow my simple steps (no guarantee that it will work, as I have never HAD to do this, as I was the catalyst, not actually the flock):

Log into Old Blogger (you get the choice of Old or New now). If you're already logged on, log out and log back into Old Blogger. Click the SWITCH NOW button that features somewhere prominent on the front page. Sign in with a google account or a gmail account. You are now allowed to use New Blogger. But, wait! Make sure you log out of all Google products and Blogger before attempting to post again.

This, pressumably, will get you up and posting again. If not, be patient. Somehow that worked for another author of the blog and he ended up with two accounts to write for the Clubhouse (so I deleted one, if it was the wrong one, I am sorry).

If anyone else has sage advice to give to the old bloggees, post it in the dear old comments.
