-- At Long Last Love (1975): At last -- the fecal matter-fest that is Peter Bogdanovich's career-killing, Cole Porter-infused musical.

(Psst: Best Little Whorehouse In Texas screens at 9:45 p..m.; Smokey & the Bandit at midnight -- it's a Burt Reynolds extravaganza!)

Found Magazine's inexhaustible founders, Davy and Peter Rothbart, will be at Berkeley's Pegasus Books tonight and at SF's The Dark Room on Thursday night for Found's "There Goes the Neighborhood Tour 2007." We're excited to see what's in Davy's trunk of "sparkling, brand-new finds" and be privy to Peter's songs based on notes from Found #5, aka "The Crime Issue." The Bay Area marks the halfway point in the bros.' "65-city, 36-state, 3-month rampage!" Found...

Get a head start on the pre-Thanksgiving crowds at the California College of the Arts' PlaySpace art bazaar!

Free food and drink; sale goes from 6-10 on the 2nd floor of CCA, at 1111 8th Street (at 16th Street and Wisconsin. Isn't it weird that 8th Street and 16th Street cross?)

Blog nerds better go buy the kids at Technorati a drink or two tonight, as they're celebrating the rollout of their new look and features at the House of Shields (which has wifi!). Tomorrow night is the SFlickr Drinkup at the BigFoot Lodge for those of you who just can't wait another two weeks until the next 'official' meetup.

Okay, five words: "Princess Bride, The Play." Sure, that's only four words, but we think the fifth word, OMFG, is implied. (So, nine words total. Whatever.) At The Dark Room Theatre, Impossible Productions (the group that brought us stage versions of Reservoir Dogs, Dr. Strangelove, and Clue) seems to be attempting to live up to its name: you can't deny that you're curious about how they'll pull it off. The Fire Swamp...Andre The Giant...The Cliffs of Insanity...all that jousting - can they do that on stage? Without them, what are you left with? Well, a really awesome plot, actually, so whether or not they've got killer rodents, the idea's got a lot of potential. Will it work? There's only one way to find out: tickets are $12.50 online, or $15 at the door. Curtain goes up December 3, 4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 17, 18 and 19. For their next adaptation, we humbly request that Impossible Productions team up with The Odeon Muppetational and The Dead Hensons to recreate The Muppet Movie.
