Check the above exquisite corpse drawn at last month’s rent party at the West Bank Social Center. We had the projector running all night, and the people just kept on drawin’. This Friday we’re throwing our September rent party, and trading the overhead projector for team of typists. You can come, dance, dictate a letter to your mom, and then top it off with a delicious grilled cheese sandwich. One catch though: if you plan on coming this month, you’re gonna have to RSVP. I know, it’s sort of annoying, but it will hopefully reduce headaches and make it more fun for everyone. RSVP for this Friday’s rent party! (photo via West Bank Social Center/Flickr)

wbsc: Check out Heavy Table’s excellent coverage of Thursday night’s 100-Course Meal! Includes some great photos and a complete list of each course, with ratings. Sitting through 101 courses, however small, has a curious effect on the diner. Each individual component — even if it’s as ordinary as a dollop of yogurt or a piece of spinach — is tasted on its own merits, discussed, evaluated, considered. The 101-Course Meal was, as the organizers explained, really a deconstruction of a 7-course meal; assemble the various components, and you might see something resembling a traditional (if lavish) dinner..
