This is a Film Festival that - as the name states - showcases short films from around the world.<br /><br />thePrisoner sometimes forgets we have a couple of readers that don't know us (see contributor list to the right) in the real world. Sometimes he posts stuff without much explanation because maybe he assumes people will take the time to google things like "CIRSF 2008"? I'm not really sure why, but I just appreciate that he's posting something. <br /><br />I figure I'll pipe in here and there with an explanation or spell checking/typo correction to help YOU, the reader, make sense of it all.<br /><br />Please enjoy his many adventures in the Chicago film fest world.<br /><br />-Mr. DNA (never gets to go to Chicago)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-9507168590142004"; google_ad_width = 180; google_ad_height = 150; google_ad_format = "180x150_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>Mr. DNAhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07142631346143653485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6569953.post-4246001526926052852008-09-15T13:02:00.000-07:002008-09-15T13:03:14.747-07:00The Last Show of the Show<div>We finished our shows at Columbia College. &nbsp;Sunday was not as dreadful as it seemed to start out. &nbsp;The weather was not great but we pulled in some decent audiences for the shows. &nbsp;After the 6 o'clock show at Columbia we had to pack up fast to haul across the city to Mahoney's for our "Best of the Fest" show which is a more informal screening. &nbsp;Mahoney's is owned by the same people the own Mother's and they have a similar setup for playing video. &nbsp;We assemble a show that's more just for us to thank the filmmaker's for showing up and give them an opportunity to buy us a beer for our efforts.</div><div><br></div><div>Good job we ran a tab, just in case.</div><div><br></div><div>So now the fest is over for another year.</div><div>I'll try to post a wrap-up and some more photos in the nex day or so, but right now I'm a little tired.</div><div><img height="240" width="323" src="cid:EE9A12B9-5245-4B98-8834-E5B8763ACBFD@lan"><img height="240" width="324" apple-width="yes" apple-height="yes" src="cid:B16FFD4C-4C2E-4B1E-9232-2014D93F9D4E@lan"><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; "><br></div><p style="margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; min-height: 14.0px"><font face="Helvetica" size="3" style="font: 12.0px Helvetica"><span class="Apple-converted-space">&nbsp;</span></font><br class="webkit-block-placeholder"></p><div style="margin-top: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; font: normal normal normal 12px/normal Helvetica; min-height: 14px; "><br></div> </div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><script type="text/javascript"><!-- google_ad_client = "pub-9507168590142004"; google_ad_width = 180; google_ad_height = 150; google_ad_format = "180x150_as"; google_ad_type = "text_image"; google_ad_channel =""; //--></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"> </script></div>thePrisonernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6569953.post-65211605739243063952008-09-14T10:59:00.000-07:002008-09-14T11:00:35.853-07:00Sunday: 100% Chance of Apocalypse. <p class="mobile-photo"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dgU_0wmPcP0/SM1RQz5vy4I/AAAAAAAAAS0/aPBjnUrIals/s1600-h/photo-735856.jpg"><img src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_dgU_0wmPcP0/SM1RQz5vy4I/AAAAAAAAAS0/aPBjnUrIals/s320/photo-735856.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5245938490208668546" /></a></p>Rain...
