Greetings Noisebridge!

We are pleased to announce the monthly "Five Minutes of Fame", scheduled for
this Thursday, February 18th, at 8pm at Noisebridge. Bring yourself, your
friends, your pet alien, and ping pong balls to throw at the speakers.

This is the one year anniversary of Five Minutes of Fame, and we're handling
it the only way we know how: by throwing a party. So come for the awesome
talks and talented speakers, and stay for the fun and celebratory lulz!

I want to extend thanks to all the speakers, but especially all the people

it would not be able to happen.
