Saturday night I went to an accordian rave. Nuff said.
But to say more, it was at the The Accordion Apocalypse Repair Shop store in Bayview at 2626 Jennings St. Denise had invited me. I met up with Prados and Erik. Happily, while we were there we had the idea to call SFSlim who was at the pub in Gerlach. He put Jesse on the phone and we were all able to confirm that the playa had not in fact killed him. I told Jesse “We love you very much and if you ever do that again, you’re grounded for life”.
More about the music: There’d be like 5 performers, unamplified, with about 150 attendees jumping, moshing and carousing. It was raucous!
PS. Don’t watch to the end, it’s embarrassing. Alexis can (please!) verify for my avid viewers that on the very last poker game I played just before being on the show I won with 4 aces and a joker, 5 of a kind, so I initially gravitated to the aces, oop! And of course, I was a bit tipsy soooooo.. :-)
Mark Alexander took this super fly photo on Thursday or so at Burning Man with IR film of myself, Coreyfro, Rachel and Rebecca. Yes, that is a giant rubber ducky on a pole in the background, Mark is a part of Duck Pond Theme Camp!
I am very happy with this local & long distance phone company. I’ve had them for over 3 years without a single problem. Rates are 2.5 ¢/minute interstate and 3.9 ¢/minute within California.
A little while ago I bought an ink toner refill for my HP Laserjet color printer. Right after adding more black toner, every sheet had a gray haze. I googled around but found no solid solution, it might have been that the toner formulation was wrong for my printer but it wasn’t definite. I wrote to the folks who sold me the toner but they couldn’t help.
It turns out that, apparently, I had overfilled the cartridge. After printing maybe 100 pages, pages stopped coming out gray. :-)
So don’t overfill your laser printer cartridges like I did!
I hope that some wayward toner refilling soul finds this message and their suffering is eased.
I bought the toner from an eBay seller, “printdealsmontreal”. The 3 colors + black toner refill cost $70 or so while new cartridges would have cost more than $200. I’m now quite happy with their product.
