We headed back to the Roxie this week for a little sci-fi at the Indiefest Another Hole in the Head festival, courtesy of director Richard Schenkman and writer Jerome Bixby, who’s known also for the Twilight Zone and Star Trek.

No winner last week, so we're going in random order. First up: the SJ Metro. Gary Singh had a crazy South Bay weekend. Is Palo Alto really as crime-ridden as they say? Cover article: The South Bay Best Of. Wow, this font is hard to read. It's broken down by city, with a readers' choice section. We didn't win their Best Blog award, which is only fair since we almost never talk about the South Bay. Also, scantily clad women throughout the pages. Barbecue in Santa Clara. More Twilight Zone love. Hey, we heard Metro music writer Todd Inoue is leaving -- we'll miss you, Todd! Where will we find out about quirky South Bay rappers now? Also, Cirque du Soleil is playing the HP Pavilion.

Last week's winner: The East Bay Express. What? No letters about Cody's? Fret not -- there's an article. (We had no idea the reason why there's no books on the shelves there now is because they were behind on their bills!) Also -- neighbors rat out neighbors for loud parties and for opening day-care centers. Cover: Fat acceptance movement (medical, civil rights, artistic, online). Good article, which makes the no fatties cartoon running later in the issue seem a little weird. Peruvian food in Richmond. The Ivy Room closes down this week, and their rants column "Haters Stand Up," about annoying fans of "conscious rap." And Savage Love says it's wrong to take advantage of polyamorists.

, the director said that he didn't want to make "just another slasher movie." This was unfortunate, as the bones were there for quite a good one in his feature. After nearly an hour of character introduction and expositional scenes, this multiple murder at a reunion of friends got going.

It sure is hard to review a San Francisco-based coffee joint when you're not in San Francisco.

Sitcoms -- live and in person!

A weekly attempt at keeping the homeland safe. Because if we don't spend every weekend getting drunk to the point of passing out in a corner booth, then the terrorists win. By your humble barrespondent, Drew.
