The Slinger at Foam October 1

Time	Friday, October 1 · 7:00pm - 8:30pm
Location	Foam Coffee and Beer 3359 S Jefferson Ave (at Cherokee) Saint Louis, MO
More Info	A group of Saint Louis' craftiest weirdos have pooled their talents into an hour and a half rampage of talent, comedy, and music! Just like the local delicacy of the same name; The Slinger is a random pile of deliciousness piled high. The acts feature all local talent, homegrown and packed with energy. This is part of a once-a-month series, new acts each month. The following is a list of this month's acts: Angelo's Horrible Life Stories: Angelo Olegna tells hilarious tales from his wretched past. Bad boyfriends; growing up gay, fat, and weird; and random insanity no one should ever have to deal with. You'll laugh, you'll cry, you'll (especially) feel sorry for him! We're Wolf (Band): Anne Romer and Maya Bailey-Clark belt out sweet, folksy, haunting a cappella and ukelele beats. Sometimes harmonious, sometimes discordant; it's a mixture that is pleasant in its strangeness. Advertising Board Meeting: The Slinger team adopts a real, unfortunately named product or company and attempts to market them. Official spokespersons will be selected from the audience to read out promotional slogans. This month's sponsored product is a suggestively named off-brand snack found in most Save-A-Lot stores. It's real, it's unfortunate, and it's a surprise. Oh Woetry: The cultured member of the group, Nathan William Ford, will read a selection of woeful poetry. Rarely heard verse will prick and possibly melt the ears of our lucky audience. Expect nothing but the best in terrible writing. We'd offer nothing better. Ye Olde Action News: Modern, violence-focused, intense newscasts are merged with the news of the past. We've got the YOAN traffic dirigible, a surly gentlemen weather forecaster, and even a woman newscaster! Egads! Our cobblestone streets will never be the same again. Slinger Team: Tom Cunningham, Nathan William Ford, Joanna Firestone, Angelo Olegna Suggested Donation: 5 Dollah

Post-it note inside of a Death Cab for Cutie album - m4w (a secondhand

Reply To This Post
This CD was actually purchased as-used quite some time ago, but upon
finding the CD case (I lost the post-it), my curiosity has been once again
sparked.
There was a cell phone number written on the post- it under the words
"Risk it. You know you want to." and a picture of a hand holding up a
peace sign. I must've been feeling particularly ballsy that day, because I called it, only to be greeted with complete confusion and me apologizing to the girl on the other end for such a bizarre phone call. I can only assume that one of three things happened- someone beat me to the punch and harassed the shit out of you, it was a prank on a friend/enemy, or you got a new phone. Either way, my curiosity stands. I don't know if I would want to meet you (probably not- I bet you are horribly disfigured in ways that only my darkest nightmares could possibly materialize), but I would definitely like to know what prompted such a feat.
Tell me what you drew between the index and middle fingers on the peace sign, the title of the album, and where you may have sold this album to so I know it's you. Thanks!
