Yes, it’s that time again, Super Tuesday time. And we’re going south! All the way to Redwood City!
Janet, thanks for all the great desserts over the years!
After all these years, Janet, Queen of Dessert, is going to host Super Tuesday at Casa Chocolate. There will be a grill. There will be desserts. It will be balmy and warm, being in the South Bay rather than the East Bay. And it will be daylight… late.
Super Tuesday gets an occasional “Hey! Fair play!” from the ladies… “Why don’t ever have any hottie guys for us ladies?”
The short answer is because 1. Super Tuesday doesn’t swing that way, and 2. Super Tuesday writes the newsletter.
However, in honor of Janet’s excellent desserts, dedication to driving farther through rush hour traffic than most would even consider, and general good cheer, Super Tuesday took some time and searched for something nice, for Janet.
Actually, that’s all BS…
Do a search on Google Image for “sexy chocolate girls,” this dude comes up on front page. But here’s what is true: when I saw Mr. Chocolate Fingers here, I instantly knew he had to be the hot chick for Janet. And so he is.
Here’s the address:
1482 Ebener St
Redwood City, CA 94061
Around 7:30 as usual.
Remember: Super Tuesday is RSVP and pot luck. Everyone’s welcome, we just need to know how many to plan for. Contact details given at the bottom of the email each month.
New: Super Friends, and more
An old friend Berkeley engineering, Ben Bachelder, after 10 years roaming the world, is finally settling down in Berkeley with his partner Neoma. Ben was Super Tuesday “Guest of Honor” in absentia 2-3 years. Check out Ben’s page on Couch Surfing. It was great to see him again at his first Super Tuesday. Pat Lake, with guest Karen, made it over for their first Super Tuesday. Pat’s been following along for a year or so, and is a business colleague of Super Tuesday. Check out Pat’s freelance animation work at Pat’s Animation.
Super Friends will be a new and continuing feature, with blurbs about new Super Tuesday folks: who they are, how we know them, etc.
Super Tuesday would be delighted to add a website link on the the Super Tuesday website for anyone who has attended. Send an email with your link, we’ll get it posted.
BBQ means boilermakers
Since Mixalot is crushed with a trip to Hawaii (!?), we’re going to lower our brows and make it easy: boilermakers! Boilermakers are easy: open a long neck beer, fill it with bourbon. Repeat until you roll your 4×4.
Boilermakers go really well with just about anything coming off a hot grill. We’ll have lemonade or iced tea for those not wishing to indulge.
Backyards, BBQ and Boilermakers…
That’s 3 of the 4 B’s… what’s missing here?
Bubba!
Bubba’s missin’!
Super Tuesday had to investigate the matter of the missing Bubba. Here’s what we found:
(Note: Some of my best friends are bubbas, and this looks like a helluva great way to spend a Saturday morning. If you think I’m joking, I’m not. Ask Mixalot. 
Not chocolate, still Hot
Ok, so we could waaaayyy too far the road we’re headed here… which deads ends somewhere around Hank III. Lucky for everyone else, Super Tuesday doesn’t actually have any Hank III. Yet. So, let’s not, and back up a bit. Keep it fun and all that.
It’s summer time, time for bright fun upbeat music. Hot Chip is one of those English pop bands that everyone loves to hate, and listens to anyway.
According to the critics, this album is the usual Hot Chip affair: brilliant tunes with a couple of “What were they smoking?” cuts mixed in. Here’s the Wikipedia take on “Made In The Dark“:
Made in the Dark is the third studio album from British electronic indie pop band Hot Chip. The album, of 13 songs, was released on 4 February 2008 on the EMI label. It peaked at number four on the UK Album Chart, number 25 on the Australian album charts, and entered at number 109 on the U.S. Billboard 200. Several singles have been released from the album, including “Shake a Fist”, “Ready for the Floor”, which reached number six on the UK Singles Chart, and “One Pure Thought”.
Check it out, it’s good.

Did you read this far?
One smart, good looking person read all the way through the May Super Tuesday newsletter, and won The Prize, which was a Lila Down’s Una Sangre CD as featured for May music. There may or may not be a prize every month, but there might be. It won’t always be a CD. Might be something else. Come and find out.
First person to ask “Who got The Prize at the May Super Tuesday?” gets the prize for June. No, I don’t know what it is yet. Ask and find out.
