Shoggoth on the Roof

Last Friday I couldn't resist any more. I've wanted these since I first heard about them, and I downloaded and listened to mp3 samples while waiting for Christmas to strike last year, but after awahlbom brought a cd and the libretto to the vinyl movers' dinner we threw for the people who helped us move the lp records I wrote about earlier, I knew it had to be soon. And now I've ordered them. Mr. Branney at The HP Lovecraft Historical Society wrote back and asked me "May I ask how you heard about us? I’m always amazed by how many customers we have in Sweden."

What I am talking about? Why, A Very Scary Solstice and A Shoggoth on the Roof of course.

DMOZ European Editors' Meetup

As some of you know and some don't, I and jlms are volunteer editors in the Open Directory Project, a non-profit effort where thousands of people around the globe strive to build a comprehensive directory of links to useful websites. It's not just a great link directory, it's also a great web community. This coming Friday afternoon we're flying to Brussels to meet other European editors. RyanAir unfortunately, regular flying is too expensive for us to pop way for just a weekend otherwise.

Fries. Mayonnaise. Trappiste beer. I hope the weather will be fine.
