Live Discussion: Got Plans?
Going Out With the Gurus -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB9892949E17F3F7C4D9D0
We had a busy afternoon on Thursday, as the Entertainment Guide staff shared opinions
on social
groups for the under-35 crowd, tips for a weekend girls' night out, dinner-and-a-movie
combos,
birthday parties for grown-ups, $1 movies at a new theater and clubs where two can
tango.
Live Discussion: Got Plans? With Kids
Children First, Oct. 13 -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB0882949E17F3F7C4D9D0
A leftover idea from the Kids' Table:
Just wanted everyone to know that Fair Oaks Church on West Ox, in Fairfax, is having
its annual
Trunk or Treat: 100 decorated cars; everyone giving out candy in the back parking lot;
a moon
bounce, a movie, games for the kids -- and it's all free.

Who's up for a marionette movie? Weekend's Desson Thomson is. He calls Trey Parker

Stone's "Team America: World Police -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB5BF2949E17F3F7C4D9D0
" "wickedly funny and devilishly subversive." Jennifer Lopez and Richard Gere don't
fare quite
as well. In Weekend, Jen Chaney says "Shall We Dance? -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB6BE2949E17F3F7C4D9D0
" is an "occasionally charming but ultimately forgettable bit of fox-trot fluff."

trailers for "Team America -

Restaurant Reviews
The 2004 Dining Guide -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB5A82949E17F3F7C4D9D0
Tom Sietsema has spent the past four months experiencing good meals, bad meals and
spectacular
meals, from Cleveland Park to Manassas Park, from Adams Morgan to Annapolis and
beyond. His
quest is over and now he shares his results with you in the form of this fall's Dining
Guide.
Tom checks in on 52 area restaurants, but it's not simply a collection of "bests."
Instead,
it's a collection of places near and far, pricey and cheap, fun and serious that all
share
one characteristic: They make the Washington area a more delicious region to eat in.

Tuesday
Music: The Libertines -
http://letters.washingtonpost.com/W9RT0478EB8CA2949E17F3F7C4D9D0
The Libertines' back story is pretty sad, actually. The band's debut album, last
year's very
Clash-influenced "Up the Bracket," was one of the most fun rock albums of the year.
But then
singer-guitarist Pete Doherty decided he'd rather be addicted to crack and heroin than
stay
with the band. The band toured without him while he tried rehab; it worked enough so
that they
could record a pretty solid follow-up (last month's self-titled affair). But Doherty's
back
off the wagon and he won't be with the band when it stops at the 9:30 club -
