"There is no such thing as innapropriate weather, just innappropriate clothing"

[foxtongue]

The Commercial Drivefest is today, a car-free festival that runs from 1st Ave to Venables, with live music, DJ's, street vendors, and performers taking over the streets, from approx noon to 6pm.

"Due to popular demand, the peculiar and magnificent Commercial Drive Festival is now evolving into Car-Free Commercial Drive Days -- TWO of them! This represents a huge shift in civic consciousness...it will not be long before the 'hood, the City, the entire planet recognizes the massive potential for global salvation and FREE FUN that Car-Free streets represent. Hallelujah.

Please help us reclaim the street, and start creating the urban paradise we know is possible."

Call me from someone's phone in 60-90 mins. I should be there by then.

I kept looking around for you. I forgot you worked on Sundays. It was strange without you.

And btw you won't hear me pulling up anymore...my truck is dead, rip. *sniff sniff*
