Git Along Lil Doggies
Laboratory Theater’s newest work is a meditative, cowboy dance-drama about the spiritual imprint of the windswept landscape of the American west. In an impressionistic narrative drawn from a variety of sources, two outlaws on the trail of an old adversary take work as jewel thieves for a washed up brothel madam. In a chance encounter with a traveling magician, they locate their enemy and conjure the violent forces of nature through sex-magic to take revenge. Thursday, October 14. 8 p.m. $18. 575 Metropolitan Avenue, The Brick Theater.
Weekends are my busiest time, work-wise, benson, and I fail to see how going out would change my perception that the lunatic fringe is taking over the Republican party – the comments on this site already do a lot for that impression!
Wow, so they had to call over to Philadelphia to get someone to post an OT here? Maybe this is a union shop.
Re: 107 Gates – Clinton Hill Historic District, corner house, garage, central air, garden rental and owners’ triplex. Nice, nice, nice. Last legitimate sale $1.1 million in 2005, after a flip from $790K in 2004. Bathrooms can be redone. Think it will go for close to ask, unless mechanical problems are detected or the closing is delayed due to paperwork difficulites (although the purported $0 sale to a shell corp. was actually for $10 if you look at the deed, so it might be OK).
Otherwise, when did SBC leave Corcoran? I liked her picture better over there (but they have hair and makeup for all their shots, unlike most of the others).
Some of the comments about gay rights (or lack thereof) make me think it’s 1810, not 2010.
Just don’t let it happen again. 🙂
@dave….didn’t know BK was publishing anything today, otherwise it would have gone up earlier. Apologies!
And, seriously, unless you’re a chubby chaser, the answer to dibs’s question is obvious.

Unfortunately, dibs, it seems that there are no rational Republicans left – a Republican House and Senate = a gang of crazies whose ultimate goal is anarchy and repression of vast numbers of people, making many of our lives hell and causing the US to totally lose face with the rest of the world. It was bad enough being a laughingstock under Bush/Cheney – this would be even worse – at least one of those two would seem to have an IQ in the triple digits (although used for evil purposes). Tea Partiers not so much.”
Babs;
Not getting out much on the weekends, are you?
Shall we go over to the OT now?????
I feel that I shouldget a jar of vaseline here when I pay my yearly subscription fee.
Thanks Wasder. Hope I can get in today.
