| On a normal day, I'd judge this cover. |
Don't know what to do tonight? Don't worry, we've got you covered.
' What makes Mad Men, a sometimes grating show, good? What do Germans think of our war in Afghanistan? How did Ted Kennedy manage to move past his family name's glamour and be one of the people? These are just a few of the topics George Packer has tackled lately on his Interesting Times blog, a place full of pithy essays on how weird and cool and awful it is to live today. Similarly, his book of the same name addresses the past 10 years and all their funkiness. He'll be reading from it tonight at the Free Library, Central Branch (1901 Vine St.215-686-5322) at 7:30 p.m. for free.
' I'm in an odd mood: I'm listening to Jacqui Naylor, a gal who wears cowboy boots and digs soft lighting on her album covers, sing the blues, the kinda cheesy blues, and likin' it. She's at the World Caf' Live (3025 Walnut St.215-222-1400) at 9 p.m. for $20.
' South Moon Under's Shopping Spree is like a mini-Black Friday for all you BF freaks. There's 20 percent off all merchandise, complimentary gift wrapping, and free drinks. Free drinks. Now that's what the Friday after Thanksgiving needs. It goes down from 6:30 to 9 p.m. at South Moon (1731 Chestnut St., 215-568-2170).
