I'm still celebrating Chinese New Year.

Last night Mayor Saffo called my cell phone. I wrote him a letter last week about how bad this city is for bicyclists and pedestrians. I wish I had a copy of the letter. It had some pretty great sketches of the city and the deadliest zones. I'm supposed to be invited to join the transportation council for the city to represent the "student"'s voice. I think I'll represent more of the "too poor to buy gas and annoyed that I am constantly close to death when traveling via bike around Wilmington"'s voice. Either way, I'm trying to raise money and awareness for a new bike path across town. Send me any suggestions or complaints to Joselyn@usa.com. I promise to bring them to light.
Plus, I got Mayor Saffo's cell phone number in my cell phone under DO NOT DRUNK DIAL. It's too tempting otherwise.
This is him calling me ----->

CHEESE SANDWICH FILM FESTIVAL UPDATE!
Keep these entries coming! The more the better-submit multiples and your odds of winning go up and up. Tonight in Kenan Hall at about 5:45 I will be stenciling shirts with the Cheese Sandwich Logo on it. It takes about 5 minutes so bring a shirt and get yours made! They are sawweeet. I don't know if my little cheese sandwich was found. I hope he was. The prize is excellent. Look on the website for the clue to his location. Crystal Marks is calling cheese farms from across the state to see if we can score some free cheese. HELLZ YEAH.


UPCOMING SHOWS!
Today at 11 tickets for Modest Mouse at Cat's Cradle in Raleigh went on sale! I didn't even know they were touring again. Mimicking Birds is opening for MM. They are pretty incredible. I listened to them this morning. It's Nate Lacy's side project if anyone if familiar with him. To listen to them go to www.myspace.com/natelacy. Tix are $32 in advance and $35 at the door, but I'd buy mine now cuz it will probably sell out. fa sho
