It was almost exactly like this for us, performance-wise, but thanks to the seemingly overwhelmed staff of Bumsted's and the Geeks Who Drink people for a fun night. Our happy...it tastes just like sad.

Clearly, Arrested Development is the greatest TV comedy of all time, so it's about time that there was a trivia contest to celebrate the three seasons of the landmark show. Tonight at Bumsted's, you can compete against Tucson Weekly editor Jimmy Boegle and web producer, yours truly, to see if you have the same deep, mildly frightening knowledge of a canceled show barely anyone watched. Say hello if you stop by. We'll be drinking vodka tonics with a side of toast.

My co-worker Andrew Ling asked for two things for his birthday via text (his messages are in green, mine in white), so I tried to be accommodating.

As you might remember (if the regression therapy hasn't kicked in yet), back in October of 2010, Rodney Glassman thought it would be a super idea to release a YouTube video of himself singing a re-written take on the Lynyrd Skynyrd classic "Sweet Home Alabama":

Somewhat predictably, the video ended up being more of an excuse to mock Glassman than a needed boost in his electability, and there was a little blowback towards Glassman's backing band the Robert Moreno Band and Jadi Norris. Apparently, Norris dug deep into Google results for his name last night because he chose to fire back on a long dead comment thread. His cranky, mildly racist, and Tucson bashing post, presented in its entirety, below the cut.

It's been an interesting day here at the Weekly today. After a stretch of exhausting and emotional days since Saturday morning, the shooting-related news has slowed, the heart wrenching funerals have begun, and President Obama visited, spoke, and left town. For a weekly newspaper and daily blog, the question we had to ask ourselves is when we go back to covering the rest of what's going on in Tucson and the rest of the world?

At what point are we doing our readers a disservice by skipping over what deserves to be spotlighted in town, whether that's Adam Borowitz on food, Jim Nintzel on politics, Mari Herreras on a little of everything, the amusing YouTube videos and whatever else it is that I do here, and all the other contributors?

So, tomorrow, regular programming will return to The Range. We're still going to cover developments as far as trying to make a little more sense of what happened and the recovery of those involved, but we'll also bring back the pre-Saturday features as well.

If you're new to the Tucson Weekly or The Range, we hope we'll give you reason to stay and contribute through the comments. If you've been a reader for some time, we hope we'll keep improving, informing, and entertaining.

Thanks for reading.

Our crack technical staff informs me that TucsonWeekly.com will be down tonight (technically, tomorrow morning, but still ...) for a brief amount of time.

The outage will occur sometime shortly after midnight, and will last until sometime before 2 a.m., unless things go horribly wrong.

The outage has to do with an upgrade or a server or something. Heck if I know.

Due to an e-mail glitch, several emails were deleted from our listings account and cannot be retrieved.

If you submitted an event to run in the Oct. 21 issue, please resubmit.

Either email [email protected] no later than noon on Monday, Oct. 11, or submit an event listing on our website. (Click the City Week tab and scroll down.)

Please contact Adam Borowitz at 295-4224 with any questions.

We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
