Attn, DC Reasonoids: Happy Hour, Wed, 9/13; New Guest Star

Come out and celebrate the publication of Reason's October issue on Wednesday, September 13, at 6:30PM at the upstairs bar at Dragonfly (1215 Connecticut Avenue NW, a couple of blocks from the south exit of the Dupont Circle Metro stop).

Reason staffers NICK GILLESPIE, JESSE WALKER, RON BAILEY, KERRY HOWLEY, and DAVE WEIGEL will be on hand to tell tales of Reason's recent Amsterdam conference with South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone ("the libertarian version of Davos," according to John Tierney in The New York Times), the gray market in human egg donation, what it's like to guest blog at Wonkette and Andrew Sullivan's Time blog, and more.

SPECIAL GUEST STAR: Radley Balko, host of The Agitator blog and author of the new Cato Institute study Overkill: The Rise of Paramilitary Police Raids in America and "The Case of Cory Maye," a haunting investigative piece about race, the drug war, and the death penalty, in our latest issue.

NEW SPECIAL GUEST STAR: Jim Henley, harsh master of the excellent Unqualified Offerings blog, will be in attendance, as well.

BONUS: Free issues, stickers, randomly sized T-shirts, and secret guest stars to be named at a later date.
