KallistiCon 2008 has been officially approved as an Erisian con by the Illuminaughty, and thus is acceptable for Discordian attendance. But go anyway.

KallistiCon 2008
Hang with other Erisians, play Discordian games, create your own Discordian traditions, have fun, and discover what the code name "Redwood City" really means.
Visit San Francisco, the city of Saint Emperor Norton I and Saint Minnie Rae

Discordians, Dysnomians, Erisians, and others of much ilk...
Get up! (Get on up!)
KallistiCon 2008 is coming - June 20-22!
Every year this millennium, we've gotten together in the Bay Area in
California. We're not just rehashing gags from the Principia - we're
moving forward, practicing chaos in the world.
For the last seven years, we've eaten and drank together, we've made
friends with strangers in traffic, we've had rituals and blessings, we've
been weird in public, and we've been human with each other. We’ve
found the freaks who thought they were the only ones, and taught them -
and ourselves - what tribe is supposed to mean.
Some of you will say: "But Discordians are supposed to be
disorganized."
Didn't you know that's just a put-on?
Some of you will say we’re doing it wrong, and only you know the
right way to follow Eris.
That's OK. Just quit talking about it and start doing it.
Some will no doubt repeat the tired cliche: "We Discordians tend to
stick apart."
Of course we do, but sticking apart is more fun when we do it together.
Throw out your old memes. Greg and Kerry are gone, Bob Wilson is gone,
Camden Benares and the other old-timers are gone. Let's honor and
respect them. Let's learn from their lives and their teachings. But let's
stop trying to be them.
The Principia is your grandma's Discordia. Being an inside joke on the
net is your daddy's. What's yours? And who are you doing it with?

Facts about St. Mae, Editor in
Chief of discordian.com, that were
so esoteric St. Mae didn't even
know them:
5) When viewed under a
microscope at 50,000x power, it
can be seen that St. Mae's left
earlobe has a tiny image of Mae
West's right earlobe.
4) St. Mae is completely
possessed by Goddess Eris on the
Summer Solstice when it occurs
within five days after a full moon in
a year who's digits add up to an
even multiple of 5.
3) If you say "Saint Mae" 537 times
backwards in five seconds, you'll
see a vision of Goddess
Eris-Discordia, Goddess
Aneris-Harmonia, and God
Spirituality together in the bathtub
in the back of Club Harlot on Minna
Street, San Francisco, circa 1871.
2) An image of St. Mae wearing
rabbit ears, jumping on one foot
and stamping out rice can be seen
during the full moon.
1) St. Mae is the reincarnated San
Francisco soiled dove Saint Minnie
Rae.
'If at least 10 people attend KallistiCon
2008, on that weekend I will not destroy the
world. I promise.'
-- E. D.
Why does KallistiCon 2008 take place on the Summer Solstice?
