Let Us Plan Your Next
Personal/Corporate Event!

Welcome to The Spot, a weekly NYC e-zine published by Funk This Entertainment, Manhattan's premier event planning company.

We are only a month away from November's election and thought it would be appropriate to start this week's edition of The Spot by pointing you to a few political websites that have recently caught our attention.

Votergasm This is by far the most original concept of this election year. According to Votergasm, it "seeks to send 100,000 first-time 18-to-25-year-old voters to polls for the 2004 elections, and to catalyze 250,000 orgasms by the morning of November 3." You can pledge to be a Citizen, Patriot or American Hero. Also note Disclaimer #4...

The Good Stuff

Local News: Six Flags Great Adventure will introduce its new creation, the world's tallest and fastest rollercoaster Kingda Ka, this spring. The ride accelerates to 128 mph in 3.5 seconds and rises 456 feet off the ground.

Money: The new Forbes 400 List of Richest Americans was released late last week. There are 45 new members of the club this year, and I'm not one of them. Google's co-founder Sergey Brin, a fellow former citizen of the USSR, is new to the F400; he is also one sexy bitch. Enjoy!

Bored at Home or Work: How about an online petting zoo to spice up your day? The animals are friendly and while this doesn't exactly beat the now legendary Penguin Game, it sure is a great way to kill time. And just as a precaution, make sure the boss isn't around.

Happenings: Get a taste of Chinatown this Saturday for only $1/plate. After pigging out, head over to Central Park for Self Magazine's Workout In The Park 2004. Celebrate Oktoberfest at Loreley's 1-Year Anniversary Party.

TV: We were happy to learn that NBC will retire Jay Leno's number in 2009. His highly-coveted slot will be taken by Mr. Comedy himself, Conan O'Brien. Staying up late for Conan? No more! And bring back Andy Richter...

Dating: "You sound sexy," But what should we really expect?

Music: If you haven't heard of Swedish DJ/producer Eric Prydz, you will soon enough. His new track "Call On Me" is built around a live sample (Steve re-recorded it just for Eric) of Steve Winwood's "Valerie," and is currently rocking dancefloors around the world.

Idiot(s) Of The Week: Father and Son, frequent arguments are almost given. They fight over sports, Son's future, Mother...and preparing chicken, except all of a sudden guns are involved, and Son ends up with a bullet in his ear. Just a reminder that all is well in Bluewell, West Virginia.

Tech: Have you seen the highly addictive Audi commercial for the new A3 Sportback? This one is truly a breakthrough in customer interaction. Find out for yourself: turn on the sound and pay close attention.
