I wanna go to this. Let's set up some carpooling from Keene.
Check your calendars, maybe there's a previous engagement.
KEENE, NEW HAMPSHIRE – A young, 18 year old man will purposefully possess marijuana to incite his own arrest. At 1:00 PM on January 10, at 82 Main Street in Keene, New Hampshire, J. Andrew Carroll will illegally be in possession of marijuana as a protest against the drug laws of the country.

Doh! Well I'm not missing the protest. Was this timing purposeful?
probably not, I can't imagine that some people attending Manchester would be all too thrilled about the CD going on in Keene. Which will result in more knowledge? I'll probably put my money on Keene.

No idea. Was just disseminating the press release I received.
Bummer, I'd like to attend that screening. But the CD here in Keene can not be rented later.
That is an unusual statement.
