Okay, a single thread to wrap up all the one off posts that dominate this forum.
Starting with: http://www.nevermore2009.com/
From November through 2009, Baltimore is having a year-long Edgar Allan Poe celebration.
I'm especially interested in this one:
--- Quote ---March 27
Time TBA
Westminster Hall and Catacombs
CASK OF AMONTILLADO WINE TASTING AMONG THE BONES
Sample the wines mentioned in Poe's stories while enjoying the ambience of the Westminster catacombs. Witness Montressor luring Fortunado to a gruesome death in a theatrical performance of The Cask of Amontillado. Enjoy characters from Poe's stories as they mingle among the living.
Additional details to be announced.

wait...isn't November NaNoWriMo?
who wants to sign up with me and do it? i know nacho's doing his "write one page then have a hard wank" a day. i'm thinking now might be a better time than ever to write a novel in a month. maybe i'll even just post it on GS as i go. man, this could be kick ass. it's not going to be coherent or streamlined, but i bet one of my notebook-ed ideas could provide me enough to hack out a 30,000 word novel in november. i'll put a think on it.
nacho:
Please do post it on GS.
But I'm not going to join you. I'm wanking to a page a day.
Cassander:
odd how it sticks in my head now every year.
"november? It's NaNoWriMo. ha ha, those twits!"
*clicks on thanksgiving recipes*
"man, i should really write something. it's been about 50 years since i abandoned my last novel 5/6ths of the way in."
*buys beer*
"I wonder if andrew secretly hates me*
*passes out*
nacho:
Secret hatred is hidden love.
