Happy Pixel-stained Technopeasant Day!

In honour of the day I am reading a paper copy of "Missle Gap" by Charles Stross.

Although my purchasing of it had nothing to do with his posting an E version on the net, its the spirit of the thing.

Free E versions lead to the purchasing of dead tree versions or at least free trips to America for authors.

So far Brendan is winning most interesting.

June 2nd is the Stilyagi annual picnic in Ann Arbor.
Just back from Penguicon and want to plan to see fannish friends again?

What Stilyagi Summer Picnic at Vet's Park
When Sat Jun 2 12pm - Sat Jun 2 6pm

Where Veterans Memorial Park, 2150 Jackson Rd, Ann Arbor, MI 48103

Join us for the Annual Stilyagi Summer Picnic! There will be grilling and other fun - AASFA provides burgers and hot dogs but feel free to bring your own food for the grill and to share.
There is a picnic shelter and a playground for kids.

We have an alcohol permit, so beer and wine are welcome.

We have the park until 10 pm but usually the picnic ends around 6.
