Last night 13 of the girls from Discount Electronics partook of Austin’s wildest party of the year, Carnival Brasileiro. I think we will make it an annual affair. Thanks to Longhorn Limos for the use of the longest Hummer I have ever seen.

At the suggestion of Michael Rains, Mighty Mouse will be returning to the great outdoors. Five years ago our beloved mascot was severely damaged in a hail storm. Since his restoration he has been held captive inside the Anderson Lane store suspended from the ceiling. But thanks to Michael, Mighty Mouse will be atop our new pole sign within weeks.

After years of working in just about every position imaginable at Discount Electronics Alissa (aka Raggedy Ann) is off to San Fransisco to chase her dreams. I have no doubt she will be successful at whatever she does.

We sent her off from Fado Thursday and closed the place down. Stay tunned for photos of that.

Good luck Alissa.
