Theater of Light is at the Soto Velez Cultural Center (that's the old school at Suffolk and Delancy).
Here's a review, and an interview with Rudi Stern.

maybe i got my virus from the tree. lets see. where is the flu raging?

Earthquake?
I think I actually felt this. I was getting ready for work this morning, at exactly the indicated time, and I registered (heard? felt? hard to say) a jolt. I thought it was something hitting the roof, having been thrown from the building next door. That does happen, but the timing was odd, and it felt different somehow. Now I know why.

can you profess to want to abolish private property and at the same time lay claim to a trademark of a name without it being paradoxical? even if you offer that name for use so long as it is not defamed in the process? i need answers people!!

Forgotten New York looks interesting in a Luc-Sante / Ken-Burns-New-York sort of way.

ABC is debuting the latest "reality" series tonight: The Mole. Personally, I'm waiting for the celebrity version.

Edgar Gibson Oliver (sometimes refered to as "The Vampire of the East Village") will be doing a one man play or somthing to that effect, one night only : Tuesday 1/9/01 at eight 'o' clock up on 27th (#?) st at a hotel theater and is only $5.00. I forgot the card this am. with the address but will post it here tomorrow am. It is being hosted by Niki Carson. Remember him ? He was was a punk artist who made a portrait of Andy Warhol by putting a paintbrush in his but and sketching his likeness in reverse. It was a live sitting. The painting was included in a PUNK-ART show at the Mud Club *BUT* was stolen when the show traveled to Washington DC.

'One audio clip produced from radio waves that NASA's Cassini spacecraft detected near Jupiter was described last week by the Los Angeles Times as sounding "like a troop of howler monkeys battling underwater." '
'The waves from which the new audio clip was developed were in the thin solar wind of charged particles that fills the space between the Sun and its planets. Cassini detected the waves Jan. 1 at a distance of 10 million kilometers (6.2 million miles) from Jupiter. ' from the jpl, nasa.

We're trying to get a little dinner together for tonight. Mark is in town. Originally we thought the soon to be departing El Teddys was our spot, but now we're thinking of chinese (GSI uptown branch.) Any thoughts? comments? How about 7:30?

When I was at my sister's house for Christmas, some of my familly was commenting that they liked my new page design because it was easier to read. When I saw one of their machines I realized why, they use a fairly low resolution (something in the 800 x 600 vicinity.) I know my mother uses this same resolution. Even on a 17 inch monitor this leaves little screen real estate to work with. Add in all the side and top menu bars that Windows brackets you with and the situation is even worse. Some of our pages are reduced to very narrow columns of text snaking down the right hand side of the browser window. Since most of us don't have lots of links on the left hand side (which I guess was the point of all that space - I mean beside the fact that I like a little blank space on a page) maybe we should have the main text take up most of the page. On a big monitor at a higher resolution this can make the text column too wide (of course you can just make the browser window smaller to fix this,) but for most people it is probably better. I've noticed some other bloggers moving toward this style. Like the queen of bloggers herself, megnut.

This sort of cosmetic change is very very simple. Let me know if anyone has any thoughts on this.

how's got cable?? Door Knock Dinners featuring Morimoto and Michiba: The New York Special, aired in June of 2000 on the Food Network, featured a half hour segment with Michiba and Morimoto participating in a Door Knock Dinner (they attempt to make a meal out of what's in a surprised person's fridge). The segment will be aired on Food Network on Friday, December 29 at 6 and 9pm (PT) and again on Saturday, December 30 at 4:30pm (PT).

Is it snowing yet?

yahoo to Saveur again / in the current issue The Saveur 100 / #96 SMARTEST "Thing to Leave Out of Wine" 'What was it we liked so much about the 1999 Brander Sauvignon au Natural from Santa Barbera county? The luscious fruit? The steely elegance? Sure-but what we really liked about it was NO OAK. Oak in wine is like garlic in cooking-a little bit adds flavor ; a lot ruins it. Winemakers of the world: tone down the oak or just forget it all together!'

Now I don't want to nag, but be sure to write a thank you note to Jim, for gifting us with this tree-place in cyberspace. It's now a bit more than a year old, and come a long way in that time. It's certainly meant a lot to me. Thanks Jim, for all your love and work here. (Just don't lose my posts again, OK?)
