Hopslam Makes Me The Three Beer Queer →
“A biting, bitter, tongue bruiser of an ale. With a name like Hopslam, what did you expect? O.G.: 1.095 IBUs: 70” Rate Beer gives it a 100, and no joke, this shit will make you sloppier than seconds with your buddy’s overweight, not-so-public girlfriend.  At 10% ABV, three and a half beers (and [redacted]) later, I’m struggling to move my head up from my pillow. ...

What's in a word?
When I’m reading and I come across a word I don’t know, I write it down in a little notebook I carry with me so that I can look it up at a later time.  I only wish I had a portable dictionary in order to know the context of that word. - katydid  My Moleskin is with me almost everywhere I go.  I have the pocket size and a larger one.  Portable dictionary?  Gotta believe an iPhone...

Please, Take My Music! →
Alright, you can’t really TAKE my music (cause that’d be illegal, right?), but Simplify Media (Win and OS X) allows you to stream my music as a shared library in your device list via iTunes (or you can simply share folders of music if you’re not an iTunes user).  The small (8 MB) client provides you with the ability to log in via multiple computers simultaneously, and thus...

"If you desire fresh, creamy spreadable butter...
… look no further than the Butter Bell Crock”   Watch the video, it’s a pretty entertaining infomercial.  I wouldn’t pay $20 for this, but don’t you hate it when you tear your toast to shreds with hard butter?  Or have to sit there and wait for your butter to soften up before you put it on a roll?  It wouldn’t solve the problem at restaurants though, where...

Jeopardy! Online Test →
Call me a nerd, but I think it’d be so fun to actually be on Jeopardy!, especially if I could pwn some older, smarter people on national TV.  Hell, it’d be fun just to be that dumb ass that you laugh at for going into the negatives.  Either way, check out the Jeopardy! website.  There’s still time to register for tonight’s test if you’re in the Midwest & Left...

My Musical Hero →
I’ve got a lot of musical influences, and couldn’t even begin to tell you who my favorite artist is at the moment.  However, something about Mike Gordon and the deep, pulsing bombs he is more than willing to drop on you at any and all times, coupled with a quirky, offbeat sense of humor… it’s just so human, and connects with me in just about anything he’s a part...

Air Jordans →
We all dream of flight.  Releasing ourselves from the shackles of gravity to soar up into the blue.  A dream that is embodied by Michael Jordan- not only through his transcendent game, but the rarest of abilities to rise above all challenges in life, and so his namesake Air Jordans become more than just shoes, but an ongoing legacy to the potential that lies within all of us to fly. Ever since I...

What I Learned Yesterday...
1.  The MacBook Air can wait until this summer when it has better specs and overall value (and I’m making bank each and every week).  My MacBook is in great shape and doing fine, so why bother upgrading RIGHT NOW?  I need to resist the Apple fanboy urge to upgrade whenever possible… which given my iPod track record is not an easy thing to do. In the meantime, I have my eyes set on...

Being Taken For Granted
What’s worse than being taken advantage of by people you care about?  It’s certainly not everyone in my life, nor is it most, but there are a number of people who seem to take me for granted, and take what I bring to their lives for granted.  Being told you’re a female’s “lil secret” (not my words), amounts to a swift kick in the junk.  It’s not so much...

JB Classics →
JB Classics is a small sneaker designer(s) that puts together some fresh, limited-edition creations.  I enjoy the entire “Getlo” style (in a variety of unique color schemes), as they’re pretty similar to my favorite shoe ever, the Nike Dunk SB… only these things have some more character and glitz to them.
