FREE Web Service 500MB

This is insane but you don't have to take my word for it. And no its not a reading rainbow book review. If you are interested in free web service with a 500MB limit, mysql, php, cgi bin, etc go to 1and1.com It is amazing what they are offering for free for three years with no contract. Shawnr knows a little bit more about this if you want to ask him.

But I signed up and bought elmwoodstrip.org as the address. I also added buffalo.kicks-ass.org as the URL for the supercomp.

Matthew also got an account and is going to start matthewsliwinski.com unless its already taken!!

upcoming squeaky shows

"The Unprofessionals" (http://www.angelfire.com/film/fruitcake0/index.html)

Friday, Dec 5 at 8pm
@ Squeaky Wheel (175 Elmwood Avenue)

Experimental films and videos exploring aspects of being; vulnerable, inarticulate, strange, funny, messy, and out of place.

"The Unprofessionals" consists of videos, drawings, and performances by 20+ artists whose work seems to have been influenced by the movie generation of; Clerks, Clockwatchers, Office Space, and Slackers. This interactive video screening relates to the trials and tribulations of worker weirdos and whiners. The works present a look at all those kids who had to grow up, act normal, go to work, and hide their supposed flaws, and the grown ups who still find ways to be a little uninhibited. The viewer walks in on a "shout out", like by the DJ at your best friend's 15th birthday party, or at those dances in junior high, to all those kids and adults, those amateurs and unprofessionals who are in need of encouragement.

This show is a place where the audiences' vulnerabilities are on their best behavior.

Dysfunctional Holiday Open Screening

CALL FOR WORK - 5 min or less films and videos due by Tues 5pm, Dec 9th

Wednesday, December 10, 8pm @ SQUEAKY WHEEL

Annual Dysfunctional Holiday Open Screening & Members Holiday Party & Chinese Auction

It's THE end of year gathering. Great people, great food, great drinks. Don't miss it! Maybe you'll be forced to eat too many holiday sweets. Maybe you'll be forced to watch films and videos our members made just for the takeover. Whatever dysfunctional holiday conjures-whether it's 'All in the Family' reruns multiplied by watered down eggnog, or viscous parking lot shopping rituals, or snow season horror, send it in, and come to our holiday party! Don't forget to bring extra cash for the amazingly cool stuff available at our 2nd annual Chinese Auction.
