If you know who the Be Sharps are,

you could get a cup of coffee. Today, at least.
Get psyched for the new season of The Simpsons with Simpsons trivia all week.

More Historical Reenactments through Food Prep

The Sinking of the Titanic, brought to you by Philly cream cheese.

Music

Two, two, two shows at Twin Paradox this week. Thursday night, 7 pm Paul Lee Kupfer and Danny Freund. Saturday, 8 pm, Erica Russo from Boston (the city, not the band.)

Coffee

Cheaper than a therapist.

FYI

Most of the time, artists are responsible for promoting their own shows, not the venue. This is especially the case when the venue in question is a small, neighborhood coffeehouse. So if you are the person who ripped down fliers posted by the artist, threw them on our floor and got mad at the employee working, shame on you. He had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Alisa Christensen through August

Come check out Alisa's mixed media/collage. All sales to benefit Portland Burn Survivors.

Reading is good.

If you're anything like me, you collect books. Lots of books. Sometimes you end up with multiple copies of the same book. Or books you don't want taking up space on your shelf and collecting dust. Or books someone gave you and you didn't like or want.
Well, have I got a solution for you! Portland Roasting is collecting books too, for a women's reading program in Papua New Guinea. You can drop off your excess books here. You're welcome.
