Pre-weekend Weekend Lunch Invite 91. Like Flynn
Oh, let's see ... last weekend I went to a relatively cool party thrown
by Kali from (among others)
Yahoo!
clubs,
RochesterNYFriends.
It was on the roof of her apartment building and the view was good, the
weather held, and at eight or so people showed up.
In other news, I decided to revamp my
home page.
The colors are still the same but the order has changed to protect the
innocent. I'm trying to look tastier to search engines so I put the stuff
that gets updated more often toward the top. This is handy for people to
just look around because the most current stuff is most interesting, but
they still have the chance to go back in time.
I checked into the DVD sale at
Rowe Photographic
(1737 Mt. Hope Ave.)
and, well, it was two weeks ago. Apparently they sold out
the lot in about an hour at $10 each.

O'Bagelo's,
165 State Street,
noon.
Update!:

last minute, we changed plans to meet at
