This will be my first year NOT playing, but I’m confident the brunettes can still dominate! This event is AWESOME to watch and be a part of, so DO IT! (it’s in just 2 weeks, get your tix now!!)
Austin: Two More Brunch Options: Zed’s & TRACE
Zed’s, the new North Austin dining destination serving modern, casual Austin-American fare, recently introduced an expansive Sunday brunch buffet (which, as you know, is what I think ALL brunches should be). Zed’s brunch is served from 11am to 3pm every Sunday. The kid-friendly menu includes made-to-order omelets, a meat-carving station, waffles with assorted fruit toppings, and…
Remember when they said Real World Austin was too drunk?
Yeah, remember that they cut the Real World Austin season short because all the housemates did was get drunk on 6th street, hook up, and start fights? Does that bear any resemblance to any show you can think of on MTV right now? Perhaps one that’s spawned pop “legends,” who do such noble things as…

Some say the antioxidants are much better, others aren’t so sure.…

Austin: Choose Your Documentary: Taxes or Music?
As I just paid an inconveniently large sum of money to the government in the form of taxes, I particularly advise you to drop by The Blanton tomorrow night for a showing of the documentary “An Inconvenient Tax.” The documentary sheds light on one of America’s messiest problems — a fundamentally broken tax code that…
