Very Mary Kate

Just found out that the bog I posted last night didn’t actually make it up online. To summarize what never saw the light of day, there are a couple big things happening this weekend. Queer Bash is back with a vengence this Saturday at the Cobalt on Main and for those of you less inclined to Eastside Shenanigans, there are still tickets for many events at the Vancouver Playhouse International Wine Festival this weekend as well.

In other news, I’ve decided this is the best website in the world right now. Parody the Olsen twins in hilariously hilarious manner? Obviously.
