NIGHTIME: Queerespondence at Bar4 is going SO granola! We are having a dance party intended for the radical hippies of the Park Slope Food Coop.

The party is a space for the queer members of coop and outsiders to comiserate, drink, and dance.  Resident Queerespondent DJ Dan T will spin all the hits while Mister Michael Popp mans an all natural produce themed photo booth pimped out with cantalopes and bananas. Famed drag talent and friend to Queerespondence Thorgy will roll up at midnight to strut, judge, and entertain. As always special guests, giveaways, and free beer from 10:30-11pm!

Sunday|8.9

I've been watching ton of West Wing with my roommate and have discovered an unmatched love for Allison Janney. It might be her flirting with Ellen on daytime TV, it might be her dry and candid humor, but its most likely rooted in my love for a saucy smart lady. I love her. I'll be hitting up BAM for Todd Solondz's Life During Wartime to check her work out. The film looks pretty dark and what's not to like about a domestic tale of forgiveness and loss.The cast looks great, I love his previous work (Welcome to the Dollhouse, Palindromes) but lets face it, I'd watch Miss Janey simply washing her feet or doing her laundry.

Famous Figure: Alien Robot and great dancer Drew Lachey
Drink of Choice: Maker's Mark
