Musician/producer BRIAN ENO will be giving a rare free public lecture next week at Fort Mason in San Francisco on Friday, Nov. 14, in the Herbst Pavillion. Coffee bar opens at 7pm, lecture at 8pm. Directions to Herbst Pavillion are here. [Boing Boing] [iceplant radio] I am probably not going, but I hope you will write plenty about the experience!!! Please! 3:59:17 PM    comment []; Oh, the Irony The Italian Foreign Minister, Franco Frattini, is at the centre of a political row after reportedly buying a fake luxury watch in Beijing. He is said to have made the purchase shortly before he met Chinese officials to ask them to take action against pirated goods. ...and here comes the spin......

Starbucks does not offer free Wi-Fi - only burnt coffee - see the Jackie Mason rant I mentioned on Sunday... 1:10:18 PM    comment [];
