Comedian Patton Oswalt recently made a plea for Americans of porn-buying age to stop relying on the Internet to educate today's youth. He argued that kids should be exposed to pornography the way his generation was, via used dirty magazines found in the woods. If you share Oswalt's nostalgia for the good old days of masturbating to print rather than pixels, you may also enjoy reading the new book from Screw magazine founder Al Goldstein. In I, Goldstein: My Screwed Life, the author shares his rags-to-riches-to-rags-again story, detailing his accomplishments in getting arrested, divorced, threatened, surgically altered and losing a fortune. Join Al Goldstein for drinks and discussion Thursday from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. at Art Prostitute, 2919-C Commerce St. (Admission is free but requires an RSVP sent to [email protected]. Call 214-760-7170.) and from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. at the Lodge, 10530 Spangler Road (Free with club admission. Call 1-877-770-3233.).
