I'm seeing a friend in
Camus's Les Justes (The Just Ones) on Saturday night. Anyone want to join me? He writes,
It's Albert Camus being challenging as hell. Unreasonably passionate characters slamming up against terrorism, morality, violence begetting violence, death... also I'm rocking a pretty ridiculous beard. ... There's a Metro station, or you just do 395 to 110 to Wilson. Tickets.

Have you ever thought, "I wish Sumana Harihareswara would do some standup comedy about project management, Linux, relationships, Agile, public transit, science fiction, and These Kids Today"? I'm performing half an hour of geeky standup in the basement of a church in Greenpoint. 8-8:30pm.

Joel on Coal Software blogger Joel Spolsky has
a new blog, where he discusses coal mining and its astounding parallels to software development and management.
"The other crucial thing about having a schedule is that it forces you to decide what seams you are going to choose, and then it forces you to pick the least safe corridors and cut them rather than slipping into pillar-robbing (a.k.a. slope creep)."

Your experience with
Collabtive: I want to know. Should I put up with it for a month and a half, or go with the Bugzilla I already have?

I want to get the full text of several articles I wrote that were published in Bay Area newspapers between 2005 and 2007. What periodicals database should I be hitting? Preferred sources: free or accessible via New York Public Library.

I'm a US resident visiting Mysore for a while, and would like to meet local MeFites. Any date between 23 and 30 November works for me; want to grab some chaat? My Kannada is terrible so I'll be speaking English and nodding.

A pal of mine is in
the Silver Spring Stage production of Noel Coward's Private Lives and nearly guarantees a good time to any attendee. Cutting British wit, that sort of thing. It's at 8. Wanna grab beverages/food before &/or after?
Update: My pal says, "For pregaming, there's a Mexican place also across the street that is ideal - Fajita Coast." So I hereby propose that we meet there at 7pm. I shall be there with a book in any case.
