what's going on tonight?

First, a bit of advice.

Opt for Fourthmeal, the meal between dinner and breakfast, tonight. In preparation, you can read my column all about late-night eateries. Be sure to check out the crafty caption under the photo, courtesy of the brilliant Chris Johnson. It's pretty much the talk of the town.
