It's My Party, I'll Code If I Want To
1999-03-23 10:08:00
'Two thousand zero zero, party over, out of time! So tonight we're gonna party at Mozilla 99!' OK, that's pretty stupid. But the Mozilla party is a blast, and no matter how lame you are, you should come.
Mozilla-dot-party is a celebration of Mozilla, the open source version of Netscape Communicator. It's a FREE PARTY (you gotta pay for drinks), and it pulls in geeks from all over. Thrown by Jamie Zawienski (best known for BBDB), it's a real good time.
Last year's Mozilla-dot-party was the highlight of the geek social season. Pigdog Journal sent a strong representative crowd, and we were BY FAR not the geekiest people there. The crowd was a real cool mix of dressed-in-black Web design fuckheads and dressed-in-camo Open Source guerrillas, with a few dressed-in-Polo Silicon Valley hardware drones thrown in for good measure.
I heartily recommend that you come watch me get stupid drunk and cage dance naked with the giant styrofoam Mozilla statue. It was a crowd-pleaser last year, and I'm sure I'll get a few cheers again in 1999.

The Ancient and Correct Sake Ceremony
Many Americans have learned to appreciate the delicate, sophisticated flavors of Japanese food and drink, along with the beautifully refined rituals of Japanese dining. San Francisco, as a gateway between East and West, has especially benefited from the flowering of Eastern consciousness in America. It is hardly possible to walk down the street without stepping on somebody's sushi. (More...)

It's not like I have a heroin problem, see. I'm just a self-indulgent brat who likes to live beyond her means. When I zip down to my corner Money Mart for a little cash-till-payday loan, I'm really not planning to spend it on drugs. I'll spend it on sushi. Seventy bucks of interest for a two-week $400 loan is perfectly reasonable, if you really need that hamachi. (More...)

This was an old standby back in my poor college days. Back then the goal was to get butt fucking wasted for as little money as possible. The problem was we hated dirt cheap beer - and some weekends, even Henry's was far more lucre then we could scratch together. So we invented Red. (More...)
