On the serious: this weekend Stand Up Comedy (in the 811 E Burnside complex) is having a SALE: 15% off all weekend long. Definitely check it out.

On the goofy: the sale is to “make room for the beats” of rapper Ice Rod, performing at the store on Sunday, 8 pm. He’s also playing at the Small A Gallery tonight, and at the Twilight tomorrow, in case you need a triple dose of songs like “Smear Your Crotch on the Xerox.” In the meantime, here’s a live video clip to tide you over: This song is called “Menstrual House”, and it reminds me very much of a house I used to live in. Maybe you lived in one too.
