THE CRITICAL MASS WEEKEND OMNIBUS: It's a Scorcha Weekend

Mark Stehle Best part of this picture? Newton Buchanan, aka "The Dancin' Creeper," behind Curio's Gong Show host/Chuck Barris for the evening Paul Kuhn. Friday: Holy Omnibus, kiddies is it hot today! Well, you better strip down to ya skivvies 'cause Mama Omnibus is about to turn up the heat when you go to Porn You Can Salute: Alternative to Mainstream Porn from the very knowledgeable ladies of Screw Smartly. They'll teach you all about porn that isn't huge titties and Oh-I-didn't-order-a-pizzas. But then you're gonna need a cool down so how about a flick, like Casino Jack and United States of Money (then read Cindy Fuchs' interview with director Alex Gibney) or MacGruber (then read my interview with Ryan Phillippe ... swwwooooooon ... maybe a movie isn't the best way lower your body heat...). Saturday: You'll be criss-crossing this glorious berg today, so start it off right by heading to Kenzo for the Kinetic Sculpture Derby and the Trenton Avenue Arts Fest. Then grab some grub at Watson Adventures' Munch Around the Market Scavenger Hunt, if you can find the food that is. Then it's West Philly with ya for Curio Theatre Co.'s first ever Gong Show! But Curio's event is a youngster compared to the 10 — count 'em 10 — years that Making Time has been going strong, so stop in and say hi to Dave P., won't ya? Sunday: Is the view from your house less skyline and more brick wall? Then let Walter Runge guide you through Window Painting: The Sequel. Just think, you won't ever have to lay eyes on that guy who always walks around in what you found out was not actually a sweater. Shake off the paint fumes and rock out with former Fastback-er Kim Warnick's Visqueen, who are back on the scene after Warnick decided retirement was for old people who don't play a mean bass guitar.

Great to see you supporting Visqueen, but Kim Warnick is still very much retired. And it's very much Rachel Flotard's band. Which 10 seconds of research would have uncovered. Come out to the show on Sunday night and let them school you.
