Lost in FOUND

The guys from FOUND magazine will make a stop at the Hotel Congress (311 E. Congress St.) at 8 p.m., Friday, June 26.

Haven't heard of FOUND? Well you may want to check it out at their Web site to make sure that love note you penned, delivered and never saw again hasn't become your first published work.

My personal favorite is the handwritten note posted on the FOUND Web site that goes something like this: "Mano, I fucking hate you ... you said you had to work then whys your car HERE at HER place?? You're a fucking LIAR. I hate you. I fucking hate you." It's signed by an apparently severely pissed off person named Amber who ended the note with: "P.S. Page me later."

Davy and Peter Rothbart - the magazine's creators - will be in Tucson to promote their new book Requiem for a Paper Bag, but the two will also share stories about the business of publishing a magazine about the things we leave behind.

The cover charge is $6. Call 622-8848 for more info.
