			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hello party people,</p>
<p>I know it's been a while.  I was in a fiery plane crash over the antarctic.  But thanks to the wonders of cannibalism, I survived.</p>
<p>I really don't know where I'm going with this.... Oh yeah - Hang out with us this Sunday!  We're playing Obamafest at 4th and Girard in Philly. It's from noon to 7 and we'll probably play around 2pm.  See below for the press release and whatnot.</p>
<p>Later,<br />
JJ</p>
<p>_________________________</p>
<p>On Sunday April 20th a free OBAMAFEST CONCERT AND RALLY will be held<br />
at 4th and Girard Avenue in Northern Liberties.  Event co-sponsors<br />
Curbside Chef are donating their spacious lot to host the concert,<br />
which will feature some of Philly's brightest artists with music as<br />
diverse as the city itself.  Grammy award winning Cee Knowledge of the<br />
Digable Planets will share the stage with legendary drummer Calvin<br />
Weston, mellow hipsters The Buried Beds, alt rockers Surgeon, among<br />
many others.</p>
<p>The concert will bring Philly bands together in support of Senator<br />
Obama's candidacy for the Presidency as the battleground hits home<br />
this coming Tuesday April 22nd.  Event co-sponsor Fire Productions,<br />
who has taken an active part in democratic voter registration,<br />
continues to support the natural relationships between the arts and<br />
political activism.  The goal is to bring as many democratic voters<br />
together and to raise enthusiasm to participate in Tuesday's election.</p>
<p>In addition to the music, the event will host Obama volunteer<br />
registration tables, speakers on behalf of the Obama campaign,<br />
catering by Curbside Chef and Las Cazuelas, and vendors of arts and<br />
crafts.</p>

<p class="style1"><strong>FragSponsor</strong> <strong>takes video gaming to the next level with sponsorship programs </strong></p>
<p class="style1"><em>RICHMOND, Va.(Oct. 10, 2006) --</em> Serious about gaming? So are we. With a target operational date of February 2007, FragSponsor will open the doors for video game enthusiasts around the world to enhance the way they game through corporate sponsorships.</p>
<p class="style1">FragSponsor has developed a number of sponsorship programs available to all gamers, featuring a variety of packages for both individuals and groups. All members will receive full access to the FragSponsor site, where they can choose and negotiate industry sponsorships, meet other players, and get discounts. Membership also allows access to the FragStore, the siteâ€™s exclusive gaming store.</p>
<p class="style1">â€œGamers will get to pick who they want from our list,â€ said co-founder Brian Atkinson. â€œThere is no resume or proposal process.Â  Joining gives a member access to the sponsors of his or her choice.Â So yes, gamers are guaranteed sponsors just for joining.â€</p>
<p class="style1">FragSponsor maintains a comprehensive sponsor list, not just for game manufacturers, but for a memberâ€™s lifestyle. Members receive access to the exclusive sponsor list, where every sponsor deal is listed for their choice. Sponsorships last for one year, at which time gamers may renew current sponsors or choose new ones.</p>
<p>Right now FragSponsor is encouraging gamers to go to their site and join the mailing list so that they can be kept in the loop for exciting developments in the coming months.Â  â€œWe just want people to know what we are about and that we are getting ready for a launch sometime around theÂ first of the year,â€ Atkinson said.</p>
<p class="style1">FragSponsor co-founder and avid gamer Brandon Atkinson got the idea for a sponsorship business after seeing other industries develop similar packages.</p>
<p class="style1">A comprehensive package description of pricing and the different levels of sponsorship will be released in the near future.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I got my shirt from <a href="http://www.tshirthell.com/store/clicks.php?partner=thechurning">T-Shirt Hell</a>.  It fucking rocks:<br />
<img src="/images/eileenshirt.jpg" alt="I came on Eileen" /><br />
And since we're on the subject, check out this hate mail someone sent to T-Shirt Hell.  I have no idea which shirt she's referring to, but there are <a href="http://www.tshirthell.com/store/clicks.php?partner=thechurning&#038;page=http://www.tshirthell.com/store/product.php?productid=112">several</a> that <a href="http://www.tshirthell.com/store/clicks.php?partner=thechurning&#038;page=http://www.tshirthell.com/store/product.php?productid=494">fit the bill</a>.</p>
<blockquote><p>From: tandra d.<br />
Sent: Tuesday, November 01, 2005 9:25 AM<br />
Subject: disgusting</p>
<p>this t shirt is down right degrading and disgusting.............why would<br />
you be so ignorant as that to down grade our Lord And Savior Jesus<br />
Christ....SHAME ON YOU.</p>
<p>tandra d.</p>
<p>T-Shirt Hell's response:  Presently, we have about a half dozen shirts that are<br />
degrading, disgusting, and down grade your Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.<br />
So, while I applaud your charming use of alliteration, it is hard to know<br />
how to respond to this when you are so vague about which particular shirt<br />
offended you.  As Judas once said to Jesus, "I know you're going to be<br />
crucified, but lighten up."  Tandra, take that cross out of your ass and<br />
enjoy life and learn to laugh a bit.  Your devotion should be a source of<br />
joy, not anger.  I've found that a good set of rosary beads can double as<br />
ben wa balls.  That way it's good for you and for the Lord.  Shame on me?<br />
Jesus didn't believe in judging people so how dare you judge me.  Do you<br />
think you're better than Jesus?  Well you're wrong. Because me, and all<br />
of my friends who are better than Jesus discussed it, and agreed that<br />
you're not.</p>
