Klaatu Barada Nikto! (Trans: Geeks' Night Out)

Tomorrow evening, Movies with a View is showing The Day the Earth Stood Still at Brooklyn Brige Park. The event is free. Music starts at 6pm, and the movie starts at sunset, which is 7:27 PM tomorrow. They describe the film as "A cult classic! Quintessential fifties sci-fi ..." Nay, archetypal.

I wonder if they'll shut down Manhattan on queue?

But wait! There's more:
Short: Piece By Piece by Sachi Schuricht, Emma Thatcher, Isaiah Allekotte and Grace Rathbone-Webber
A short documentary about the resurgence of the Rubik’s Cube and the practice of Speedcubing. Meet one of the original creators of a well-known Speedcubing algorithm and the 1982 Swedish Speedcubing champion.

DJ: Tim “Love” Lee, founder of Tummy Touch Records, teams up with DJ Robyn to bring you spacey, sci-fi sounds.
Geek flicks, geek music, geek lore, and live geeks!

Geek heaven ... bring your theremin.

Yo, Brooklyn! (And “tag”, you’re it!)

I've been really enjoying your blog! I left East Flatbush at the tender age of 8, but been back a few times as an adult, so I enjoy reading your blog and your perspective on gardening in the urban mix.

Not sure if you're ever up for a blogsphere "meme," but they can be kinda fun. It’s kind of like a chain letter filled with fun personal facts. I tagged you for "8 Fun Facts" if you choose to play...click over to… http://gardenwiseguy.blogspot.com/2007/07/little-diversion.html, read the rules and jump in.

Enjoy!
