Weekend recommendations

If you're going out in Austin tonight, there's some fun stuff to do:
Beerland's having a DJ and a go-go dance off tonight. Beerland is like the coolest place downtown, bar none. And cheap, too.

Trophy's down South is having Honky and Grady play tonight. Both are pretty great bands, and I have heard it on the grapevine that there will be an absolute ton of custom hot rods out there tonight.

Book recommendations:
Moral Politics: What Conservatives Know That Liberals Don't This guy's thesis is that conservatives and liberals aren't even speaking the same language, metaphorically speaking. Even if you don't know much about language, etc., it's still a good read, because it puts alot of political dialogue into perspective.
The Blind Assassin. I don't think I've read much by Margaret Atwood I didn't like, but this book is particularly hard to put down.

I'd put album recommendations, but there's so many I'm listening to right now I can't really narrow it down.
