Well, that was actually the James Lipton of Paxahau's choice.  But since
Paxahau did print up limited edition T-shirts and got the entire bar staff @
Motor to wear them for that night then I guess "Freddie Got Fingered"  or at
least that night @ Motor qualifies for a techno movie.

For those who don't know about this you'll have to check the photo archives
@ http://www.paxahau.com

I forget how long ago that was.  Actually, let me go in my closet and look @
the T-shirt.  There is a date on that.  OK, it was in February 2002.

telepathic regards,

(who actually got badly fingered by Richie Hawtin @ his birthday party in
Brooklyn a couple of years ago.  Special gratitude to Clark Warner for
keeping me company in the Emergency Room that night.)
