Who is this Dave Awl character, anyway?

No Exit serves a full veggie-friendly café menu: There's usually one entrée (like veggie lasagna or pasta) plus sandwiches, soups & pastries, and all your favorite coffee drinks and other beverages (including my favorite, Green River sodas). The food is good and CHEAP.

THE NO EXIT?
No Exit Café is a cozy, intimate space right near the beloved Heartland Café in Rogers Park. It's just off the Morse stop on the Red Line and there's free parking at Glenwood & Estes (two blocks north at the Trilogy parking lot).

Wednesday, July 9, 2003:

What is patriotism? Who gets to decide what is and isn't patriotic behavior? And is it unpatriotic to criticize one's country — or is it maybe just possible that true patriotism includes the duty to criticize one's country and its leadership when they go astray?

THE PARTLY DAVE SHOW:
Patriotically Incorrect

Because Patriotism Does Not Equal Silence.

"There can be no deep disappointment where there is not deep love."
— Martin Luther King, Jr.

An evening of dissent, in celebration of
the free expression our country is supposed to stand for.

Hosted by Dave Awl

Featuring performances by the mighty Schadenfreude,
poet Ken Hunt, schoolteacher lynne Shotola,
playwright Christopher Piatt,
and Karen Christopher (of Goat Island)

With live music by folksinger/comedian Kitko
and musician Chris Schoen (of Theater Oobleck)

(Plus a representative from the Illinois ACLU on hand
to register new card-carrying members!)

Wed. July 9 at 8pm
