*CLUB: Check out Rock Out Karaoke over at Amnesia. What is Rock Out Karaoke? Well, it mean that you will hear neither a Righteous Brothers cover nor a note from everyone's least favorite musical, Grease. And isn't that what you really want in a karaoke night? Of course it is. (Glenny Kravitz hosts.) READING: Sorry to throw another Valencia Street happening your way, but: author and artist Ian Philips, of Suspect Thoughts Press, reads......

Here's todays wrap up of news stories...

Two Marin county activists have announced that December 22nd will be the ""First Annual Solstice Synchronized Global Orgasm for Peace" day. In short, it's Orgasm for Peace Day. The gist-- if everyone has an orgasm that day, war will be over. It's just that easy. Talk about thinking locally to act globally. Or, as the site says, to: "effect change in the energy field of the Earth through input of the largest possible surge of human energy." To be more specific, to somehow have just enough sex to make all those battleships lining up outside Iran to turn around immediately upon the wave of human sexual energy hitting upon it like that wave hitting the S.S. Poseidon (the original, not the sequel). Although, according to the Chron in a nice, dryly written article, the Navy has actually never seen anything like that happen. ...

Ooooh-weeeee-ooooooh! The Air Force is dismissing panicky claims from residents in the area that they saw some weird spooky lights over the cross on Mount Davidson last night. People across the state and folks in Nevada all reported seeing something ......weird. One SF resident described the flashes in the sky as "a series of solid lights that appeared to be hovering.

Hey, let us know if you see people suddenly disappearing today, okay? Clearly the folks we hang out with aren't going to be going anywhere if it's the Rapture, so we can't use them as a gauge for anything. ...

To follow up on our previous story regarding RFID tags being the Mark of the Beast, it looks like evangelicals will have to wait just a little longer for the Rapture, since their good friends at the ACLU of Northern California, the Electronic Frontier Foundation and the Electronic Privacy Information Center have successfully helped concerned parents keep their children from being tagged and tracked via RFID technology. It seems that under pressure from parent......
