How regularly do these emails go out?  I used to get them, then stopped, and I sure didn't unsubscribe.

weekly now... i'm beginning to wonder if the weekly emails aren't getting caught by spam filters for some people.  luckily, the cloudmark users haven't labelled them as spam yet, so mine always land in my inbox weds evening.

I checked my personal email, thinking that might be the case, but didn't see any.  I just resubscribed with my work address.  Thankfully, our spam filters allow me to get my daily fix of penis enlargements, girls who blow for cash, lingerie ads, and other necessities, while kindly blocking client emails.

the original post was misleading, the tickets are $30 each so that's $11 surcharge for $60. i still wouldn't pay that much for surcharge though, if there are other options.

i picked up my $100 gift card this past sunday.   it took a few minutes, so i was the a-hole holding up the line for those of you waiting for the mxpx/simple plan show.

There are always options bags....the 930 and all the other venues that use these scam merchants can't be bothered to do anything about it though.

What are the options, outside of setting up a service run by the club, which I would never do as a club owner.  9:30 tried, by going with tickets.com early on.

Dumb-ass, they don't do "oil-changes" like on your Lexus/Benz/BMW or whatever it is.
