I've been helping some twitter friends with a new site, JustUsLeeg.com ... Go check it out! Till you do, here's what it's about: The JustUsLeeg started out with @bc42 and @thesnarkyone having a beer at breakers. They went to high school together and decided the next time they should invite some other friends to show up. Little by little people started showing up every two weeks to geek out and have beers together. We then decided to have a tweetup every other meeting (monthly) of the JL and … [Read more...]

Save the Arts!

May 18, 2009 By Robert Owen

This is one of the most troubling things I've run across in a long time.
