What’s going on at cvilleMUSE?

1.  They are giving away 2 free box seats and free parking for the Sons of Bill/Gary Allan/James Otto show on Thursday.

2.  Shaun broke the Modest Mouse show a full 10 days before it reached the other local publications.   They are playing on June 29th, in case anyone was wondering.

3.   They have a new cvilleMUSE category.. coming soon… LITERATURE.

4.  They are launching a calendar.. yummy.  It is going to rock the Charlottesville music, arts and entertainment world later this week (well, maybe not that cool).  Oh, and you know that really difficult to navigate format?  They’ve solved that.  Oh, and you know that really difficult to get updated events into your calendar? They’ve solved that too.

    Does this mean Muse can start the book club, as I so dropped the ball on that one.

    They could even have two books a month - one local and one of recent national acclaim.

    Again, I am so not volunteering here. Just suggesting.

    Where we can read about all the… book openings?

    All Grisham, all the time?

    Maybe a dash of that sneaky pie cat detective abomination? I could eat a bowl of alphabits and vomit better writing than that. (Hey! My first review!)

    cute batender at oxo is writing a book . . . but it’s not a bartending book . . . so much for synergy

    Is that a free verse poem?

    cute batender at oxo is writing a book
    but it’s not a bartending book
    it is an unfit diary, a coordinated ink stain
    it is unimagined
    so much for synergy

    wind flies through corregated cupboards
    and empty thoughts meander
    like distilled spirits
    not swallowed, but absorbed
    so much for lethargy

    driven hard into nights bosom weeping
    paper dolls cut from eggshells
    dance slowly until mourning
    cold until the break of day
    so much for sympathy

    and the discarded downy dreams
    don’t bury themselves in the illusion
    of fruition, of manifest utility
    they merely roll from mind to mind
    longing for the bitter flavor of better purchase
    so much for destiny

    when the frightful angel screams
    her lunatic passion into the gates
    of the future, the past nips her grapefruit heel
    trying to taste what is already gone
    so much for history

    sands accumulate with dust to form
    small clusters of the smallest stuff
    within the corners of our collective closets
    hidden for shame, but also from harm
    no one must know, so no one can touch
    so much for empathy

    cute bartender at oxo closes her book
    like a rusty garden gate
    and sets down her pen
    like a dull scalpel
    knowing full well
    the covers will hide
    the blank pages within
    so much for literature

    How come cville Muse did not highlight the auspicious event occurring at JPJ on Friday night… Sesame Street Live. I thought they were all about culture and stuff. Useless twats.

    I so want to see Modest Mouse…Shaun broke it so all cVillains and Muse readers (they have no type–Musers?) should get to go for free.

    PS Calendars=not yummy. Have you ever tried to eat one?

    One of the guys from modest mouse stole my car keys. I think it was an accident, but still.

    The only useless twat over there is me, Floozy. I never write anything and if I do it’s gone from the page in a matter of days. Can’t even say twat on CvilleMuse - it’s the clean sister site. I am working on an article about the battles between goth/punks and emos in Mexico, though.

    Squid…. how about staying with the Sesame Steet theme and make it Elmos in Mexico?
    /dare you to slip the word ’snatch’ into one of your posts.

    flooze, are you taking mini-me to sesame st live? I think I have to take my girl too….

    Hey C…. she is going with her 3 year old boyfriend. He is a good catch.. prepaid college and potty trained. We have high hopes.
    I will instead be getting shit-faced drunk on the deck watching the sunset through the bottom of a glass. Sorry Chick.

    too bad, I was going to share my flask with you.

    How are you going to smuggle it in? How about pour the grog into a Pampers and put it in a diaper disposal bag and then when you are inside, wring it out into a juice box. Cunning. Very cunning.

  17. 06 May 2008 at 10:22 pmcaroline said:

    you’ve seen me do it before, huh?! Plus the pampers give the liquor a nice powdery after taste. I’ll be thinkin’ of you

    Hey shut it! If more of you clicked the link, then I wouldn’t bug you.

    I really like the NewmaN posts over there. This week’s is really funny.

    I’m not too well versed in Spanish but I’m pretty sure an emo Elmo would still be a ‘darketo’, and thus in trouble. An emo Silmo however would be able to hold his own I am sure.

    Am I the only one who thinks this would be an awesome video game?

    OK, I gotta go jump in the squid tank to cool off on a hot day. I can’t believe all you bloggy geeks are sitting at your keyboards on such a beautiful afternoon. Don’t you know a sick day when you see one? Cheating your employers out of a full day of work is nothing new for you bloggers, so why not call in sick?

    Wait-a-sec… Does Charlottesville even HAVE a squid tank?
