    and hello fellow weasel.
    i would totally attend your cardboard and tinfoil cabaret.
  • Jun 19 2009 10:01 PM

    so how many weasels exist in san francisco?
    what's life like in your corner of existence?
  • Jun 11 2009 10:24 PM

    WEASEL ALERT!

    i have it on rather strong authority that there will be an increased population of weasels in the santa cruz area this weekend. they will have weaselled their way up from los angeles, and weasel they will.

    you may see them roaming the streets on friday night in preparation for a clandestine gathering within the four walls of the paul sweet house in santa cruz on saturday night.

    perhaps you wish to weasel. should you wish to weasel, weasel you should.
    we can always be contacted for further information - you can always send a telegraph to the right people.
