After Work Today (So Many Choices)...

In an effort to further the cause of making Thursday the new Friday, Blackened Out has partnered with local businesses and organizations to offer more opportunities for you to make bad decisions which will lead to you showing up hungover to work tomorrow.

Harvest the Music (weather permitting)
This free fall concert series at Lafayette Square has been a welcome addition to the weekly social scene. In order to support their fight against hunger, the Second Harvest Food Bank has initiated a three-prong attack: music, food, and booze. If that's not a recipe for success, then we might as well give up now. So check out of the office at 5:00 and walk on over to the Square. Listen to The Radiators, have a few Abitas, and hopefully the rain will hold off long enough for you to enjoy a cool fall evening.

Thursdays Uncorked at Cork & Bottle
Thankfully, this event is held every Thursday, rain or shine, in conjunction with the Mid-City Green Market. This weeks FREE tasting (as they all are) features "Outstanding Wines from Argentina." I wonder if Justin Pitts will have any hanger or skirt steaks available at the market? Either one would probably pair well with the 2007 La Posta Cocina Blend which is on sale at C&B for $10.99.

Whatever There is To Do in Kenner
Because that is where the swearing-in ceremony for the newest bar candidates will be held. Three years of studying, and you end up celebrating at the Treasure Chest buffet. God sure does have a sense of humor.
