Are you a conservative or liberal…

…drinker that is. For those who drink liberally read on. Pardon the mere reposts. In a creative and mental slump so still kind of taking a break but trying to post the good stuff coming up.

Please mark your calendar for this month’s edition of Dallas Drinking Liberally.

Join us at The Stoneleigh P, 2926 Maple Avenue at Wolf across from the historic Stoneleigh Hotel, on FRIDAY, August 10, 2007 at 6:30 pm or thereabouts. You can swing by after work to meet your liberal friends, order drinks and maybe even have dinner.

Here’s the map.

I look forward to seeing y’all there!

Cheers,
Melissa

P.S. A liberal welcome to those who have recently joined our mailing list through DFA Link, Texas Democrats, Dallas Video Festival, MySpace or the Dallas Air America Yahoo group. We always meet the second Friday of each month at The Stoneleigh P, and sometimes meet at other venues to Screen Liberally or Eat Liberally. There’s something for everyone under the Living Liberally umbrella.

P.P.S. If anyone was lucky enough to attend YearlyKos 2007 in Chicago last weekend, I hope you’ll come Friday night and tell us about it firsthand!

SPCA is at it again


SPCA of Texas to host upcoming Microchip Clinic

WHAT: You and your beloved pets are invited to join the SPCA of Texas on Saturday, August 18, 2007 as we microchip furry family members for the discounted price of $20 at the Dallas, McKinney and Village Fair clinics.

Dogs and cats should be microchipped and tagged to make sure they can be reunited with their human companions should they become lost. Microchipping is a quick, non-surgical process which involves injecting a sterile microchip—about the size of a rice grain-between a pet’s shoulder blades. Each chip has an unalterable ID code that enables animal shelters to locate owners should pets become lost.

WHY: Each year, more than 10 million pets are lost and more than half are not wearing collars or ID tags by the time they reach a shelter. The cost of handling these lost pets is nearly $1 billion a year.

WHEN/WHERE: Saturday, August 18, 2007
