Attn, DC Reasonoids: Happy Hour at The Fab Lounge, Wednesday, March 26, 6.30PM
On Wednesday, March 26, please join reason's Radley Balko, Nick Gillespie, Dan Hayes, Katherine Mangu-Ward, Michael C. Moynihan, Jesse Walker, David Weigel and Matt Welch and more for a happy hour at The Fab Lounge, beginning at 6.30PM. Things we'll be celebrating:
* The publication of our April issue, featuring Contributing Editor Peter Bagge's "Scenes From the Never-Ending Campaign Trail," Science Correspondent Ronald Bailey's eulogy for the "Fourth Great Awakening" in U.S. politics, Senior Editor Jacob Sullum's analysis of how drugs become demonized, Senior Editor Kerry Howley's appreciation for the emancipatory powers of the American hotel, and much, much more.
* The appearance of special guest star William Beaman, editor of Politics magazine (formerly Campaigns & Elections), which recently received a nice and well-deserved write-up in the Washington Post, and whose cover story this month is a Nick Gillespie/Matt Welch joint about "Long Tail politics" and how the political parties and candidates that succeed in the 21st century will be the ones that speak to the burgeoning libertarian vote.
* The advent of spring, with its attendant flowers and sunshiney days.
So come on out on Wednesday -- note that The Fab Lounge is upstairs, and not the venue at street level -- and see if The Washington Post's recent description of reason's happy hours as "every Libertarian-as-Bacchus fantasy you've entertained" is as truthful as a Malcolm Gladwell speech.

YEAAAA!!! Partayyyyy time!
Count me in!
Damn, I'd love to come, but like John Kerry said "I'm Stuck in Iraq!". Maybe I should have studied harder in college.
LTN,
Maybe if you would have studied 'collage' instead I would have heard you bellowing into a bullhorn at the METRO entrence to the Pentagon this morning 🙂
I see that cover and wonder if Reason and Mad Magazine have merged.
And once again, it's a "fuck you" to all us non-DC reasonoids...

Is it wrong that I love that cover?
I like the cartoon covers! I think one of the Reasonites explain that having Bagge and the other guy do the covers helps move the magazine off the shelves.
If you want an ugly cover of Reason, just look to your right.
Gonna have some "cosmopolitans" over at the Fab Lounge? Sounds like a real Beltway-Hipster bucket o' fun. Maybe Jamie Kirchick will even pop in to enthrall the masses with his wisdom.
I hate to ask this, but what's with the British-style "6.30"?
Well, if one analyses the different manners of presenting the time, one finds that the period is most effective. I'll memorise the style, but I suppose its efficacy is argueable.
I won't be there. If I was, I'd prob. get kicked out for getting drunk and calling Kirchick names.
Sorry I missed it. Had 'hybrid' Jeep troubles on I-95 on the way back from a MilitaryIndustrialComplex world domination workshop.
Is Mr. Weigel going to be posting the photographic record? How much ridin' dirty did I miss?
liked your post ..keep up the good work .
