Meeting July 9th

Hey Monkeys!

Next meeting is set for July 9th.

Not super BARTable, but we can do a BART run if we coordinate accordingly. Carpooling is suggested. We do have a short hair cat (allergy alert) and a hot tub (naked alert) for any linger discussion or if anyone wants to hear Lethem sing "Monster Eyes". I suggest for field research we all try and have phone sex with a stranger before the meeting.

In all seriousness, I'd like to throw a little something out there for possible consideration. A recent New Yorker article focused on Paulo Coelho (link below), an author read and adorded by many who's topics are usually spiritual and full of self discovery. I was interested in reading "The Alchemist" and thought maybe it might be good for the book club. It could be too spiritual (Clinton was photographed with a copy after the whole Monica thing), but spiritual isn't always bad, and this guys sounds like a full fledged freak (he studied the black arts, did a lot of drugs, etc).

Here's an abstract of the article, I couldn't find the whole thing on line.

Just something to consider.
