Fluff fest
Pretend I posted this several days ago. Third year, finally went. Cute event even for those of us who will never eat the stuff plain. (As a substitute for Italian meringue in fancy baked goods, sure.) The lucky Google result for “fluff fest” is not this past Sunday’s sticky Somerville patio party:
13.07.2008
thursday 24.7.:
21:00 welcome movie, open air cinema
friday 25.7.:
14:05 5 SYMBOLS [cz]
14:45 STOLEN LIVES [cz]
15:30 WAR FROM A HARLOTS MOUTH [ger]
[etc.]
Coincidentally, the final band of the Fluff Music festival:
21:00 BANE [us]
used to include a friend of mine who’s built and/or performed at a number of the businesses that put together the SV Fluff Whatever fest. Including the place run by this guy, posing with a Fluffaccino in a Union Sq. Main Streets promo photo. (Though I regularly bring him cookies, he would not be my first free-associative choice to promote a sugary drink.)
At the event: my bad cellphone photo of a very sweet friend looking vicious:
Best part, though, was the Fluff Boy comic book(s), which practically none of the artists involved has plugged online (grumble). Still up at the cable access TV building. I want to go visit the page that shows the poor marshmallow caught in a mousetrap.

p.s. Once again, proof that the key (a key) to being a good writer/journalist is never being too defensive or smug to ask the stupid question.
p.p.s. If Stephen King wanted to break into the hypercompetitive world of baseball writing. The Globe Sox reporter is younger than me, by the way. How depressing.
