bit the z betting window What are the odds you'll like these November happenings? 3:1 Political cartoons Upside: Editorial cartoonist Hugh Haynie started at the CourierJournal in 1958, and his work appeared in the newspaper's pages for four decades. According to The Encyclopedia of Louisville, the "conservative estimate" is that Haynie did some 8,000 drawings, 100 of which will be on display from Nov. 9 to Jan. 26 at the Frazier. Former Louisville mayor Jerry Abramson, the subject of a Haynie or two, gave the Museum some of his originals for the exhibit. In one from the late 1980s, when the Presbyterian Church (USA) was relocating its headquarters to town, Haynie depicted Abramson, like Paul Revere, shouting, "The Presbyterians are coming!" Downside: What would the late Haynie have to say about, well, the C-J? 7:2 Will Oldham Upside: The Louisville musician makes his third Betting Window appearance this year. The frst was for a March acoustic show at the Holy Grale that paired beers with his songs. Over the summer he made it again for a concert benefting the Network Center for Community Change. Now: The Louisville Visual Art Association will display work from 26 Oldham-inspired artists from across the country — including the dark whimsy of local Kathleen Lolley. Nov. 1 to Dec. 14 at the Public gallery on West Main. Downside: All of this Oldham love makes us feel like we're cheating on Betting Window favorite and My Morning Jacket mastermind Jim James. 5:1 Music! Upside: Nice little run this month: Deer Tick's drunken rock with a twang chaser on Nov. 4 at Headliners (ed. note: Drinks on the author if you say hello to him). At Headliners three days before that, Cold War Kids frontman Nathan Willett will be banging the piano keys (ed. note: Same deal). MGMT will get trippy at the Palace on the 22nd. And don't forget about Jimmy Buffett at the Yum! on the 30th. Downside: The author is a Parrot Head. "Fins to the left! Fins to the" — sorry. 7:1 A Coca-Cola Christmas Upside: From Nov. 16 to Jan. 6, the Slugger Museum will show old Coke Christmas memorabilia. To add to your holiday shopping list: This month, the museum will also auction off the uniform that former Pittsburgh Pirates second baseman Bill Mazeroski wore when he whacked a World Series-winning homer in 1960. Downside: A couple hundred thousand seems a little pricey for a secondhand jersey. Black Friday Upside: The magazine's employees get the day off. Downside: Actually, no. "Offcially, we're open," publisher Dan Crutcher says. C'mon, readers, where's the outrage? ODDS-ON FAVORITE 15:1 (but improving?) LONGSHOT EQUATION — JM 1988 25 years 14 LOUISVILLE MAGAZINE 11.13 drag shows the Connection (120 S. Floyd St.), which has now been in business for a quarter-century. "When we opened, at that time a gay club was more of a speakeasy; it wasn't really out in the open. We kind of put it out in the open," says co-owner Ed Lewis, 59. in a CITY sentence. Can somebody please turn off the distracting music coming from the speakers on the Big Four pedestrian bridge?
