Friday:
 · Barcelona-based blogger/DJ Jace Clayton, also known as DJ Rupture, makes a stateside appearance at Rothko tonight. The reason? If you were thinking "to raise money for the Tsunami relief cause, of course," you'd be right. [TigerBeat]
· Dale Peck and Rick Moody co-host the "O. Henry Prize for Short Stories 2005" party tonight at Barnes and Noble on Sixth Avenue. Just kidding. But Mr. Peck is scheduled to appear, along with editor Laura Furman. [Paper]
Saturday:
 · Former NYU student and current DFA associate Tim Sweeney takes over the turntables at the Asterisk Art Project dance party. Sounds cool, but will you brave the cold for the trek to Brooklyn? [Upcoming]
· The name of the website—Precision Accidents—says it all: drunk idiots yoked to shopping carts race through Brooklyn and Manhattan in order to win cash prizes (our favorite disclaimer: "The Musher may ride in the cart, but this is dangerous and not recommended.") We're as excited about this year's Idiotarod as you are. [Precision Accidents]
· Kids are so pesky and annoying. Keep them entertained and occupied at the Museum of Television and Radio's all-day Animation Festival. Just don't let them play with the stoners. [MTR]
Sunday:
 · Isn't that Super Bowl thingy on today? Oh, that's next week? Well, in that case, go see Alone in the Dark. You know you wanna.
