We are getting geared up for the 6th St Smokeout, and it's now less than 2 weeks away!
We'll have plenty of pizza, from the Mellow Mushroom, to take care of your munchies, and we'll also have a psychedellic multimedia light show for your viewing pleasure!!
Also, if you have just a couple minutes to spare, go by Do512 and vote "I Like" on the event page there; it'll keep the Smokeout near the top of the list of events for that day, and the "Higher" we are on the list the better!!!!

ACL rocked, but there is NO time to rest... Art Outside starts Friday!
Featuring musicians like Wine and Revolution, Suzanna Choffel, Freq Nasty and 62 other acts across three stages, over 100 visual artists ranging from photographers to jewelry-designers, film shorts by Austin Underground Film Society, on-site yoga and acrobatic training, DIY craft demos, fashion show by Rene Geneva, fire dancing performances and much more, Art Outside is an unforgettable, full-sensory art adventure. Art Outside also makes a special effort to reach out to families, and will offer interactive earth-friendly projects, storytelling, and a variety of arts and crafts workshops for children at this year's event.
Since its inception in 2004, Art Outside presented this year by Art Seen Alliance has played a significant role in shaping Texas' vibrant art and music community. By moving creative works from inside gallery walls to an outdoor setting with open sky and wild environs, Art Outside challenges guests to rethink the way they view art, fostering an environment where no genre is off-limits, no medium left unexplored.

The Rag Blog and South Austin Pictures present a screening of "God Thinks You're a Loser," a perverse comedy from Austin director Gary Chason, at The Independent in the 501 Studio Complex, 8 p.m., Thursday, August 27, 2009, 501 E. 5th at I-35 in Austin, Texas (entrance on Brushy Street, one block east of I-35).
A donation of $10 is suggested, with proceeds benefiting The Rag Blog, a progressive internet news magazine based in Austin. There will be a cash bar.
According to Chason, "God Thinks You're a Loser" is "a zany comedy about strippers and oil men" with "plenty of kinky sex, drugs, and the reckless pursuit of sensual pleasure." But in the end, those who hurt others must answer for their actions.
Much of the film takes place in Hell.
A live discussion with director Gary Chason and star Sue Rock will follow the screening.
