I've memorized the entire Eddie Murphy Raw performance. Sam Kennison, Lenny Bruce, it's just classic.

Hey, Naptown: still up for hosting?


I could certainly accomodate an intimate gathering...weather pending I do have a sizable deck as well...I would also be pleased to investigate larger venues...

I personally like Phili, which I had realized at concert recently smoking is still allowed (dont know if it is going the other way yet)


Mayor Street has until TOMORROW to either sign off or VETO the ban (which would force the city council to start from "scratch")...feel free to forward him your last minute thoughts...

Dark and Jeep both have my email, and I trust them to not sabotage me and pass it along to any of you folks who would like it Smile


I'm about 4 hours from Philly and 5 from the DC area. Like Tnsmoker, my husband has a really weird work schedule, but I'm game to see if can be worked out!

Take this poll on CNN - it's old but it's still active

Found this on another site - the CEO of Smintair posted it.

I'm really having a hard time believing he signed off on it. It's almost as bad as Chicago: http://www.kyw1060.com/pages/83099.php?contentType=4&contentId=205343

As for Las Vegas, if you want to meet there, we probably better do it soon:

Part of what had the mayor on the fence was his disdain for the provision that exempts outdoor cafés.

In Nevada:
The state's rapid growth also dilutes the passion for live-and-let-live ideals, Rocha said. Voters will decide what's best when it comes to the anti-smoking measures, but the voters are an ever-changing entity, he said. The smoking laws won't be decided by longtime residents, but the newcomers, he said.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

THIS is what's wrong with the country. These bastards move in for cheaper taxes/property/etc.and bring their communistic thinking/voting patterns with them.
