Don’t Know Tavern

I went to Don’t Know Tavern on Friday night. It’s owned by the same people as No Idea Tavern, apparently both named as if to answer the question “so where were you last name?” I don’t know if I’d call it “in celebration,” but it was for ACW’s final fling happy hour before he quits [...]

A Few Rounds Before The Dark Knight

Been waiting for The Dark Knight since you heard about it? Curious to see Heath Ledger’s final performance? Have a thing for Christian Bale? Maggie Gyllenhaal? Michael Caine? Hmm, or maybe you’re a Marvel DC comics fan?
How about a few rounds beforehand?
Call it a happy hour or pre-gaming if you like, but a few of [...]

Emptying Out the Brain

No picture today, just a lot that’s been in the back of my mind lately.
I’ve been going to the gym again. It was one of those things I kept putting off (for close to six months) so I feel pretty good about it. I’m only going twice a week, but I feel healthier. I’d been [...]

WALL-E

I saw WALL-E last Friday night and loved it. I can’t remember the last time I saw a movie with a G rating in the theater, let alone enjoyed it this much. Sometimes I see a movie and think I’ll have to pick that up on DVD because I know I’ll want to see it [...]

Sunday Brunch at Little Havana

To make it really short, the Sunday brunch at Little Havana is a blast. Beware however, without a reservation you can expect up to a two hour wait (especially if its a holiday weekend). As far as reservations go, make them early. If the weather is supposed to be nice, ask for an outside table. [...]

Cocktail Parties are Cool

I went to a cocktail party at friend’s house on Saturday night. Aside from work-related events, it was my first. The house parties I attend are usually a bastion of comfortable apparel, but it was really neat seeing everyone all dressed up. The gentlemen in suits and ties and the ladies in little (mostly) black [...]

We Are the Epitome of Classy

I hosted a malt liquor tasting on Saturday night. About a dozen people turned out to rank five of the cheapest forties that I could find within a mile of my house. The brands tasted included King Cobra, St. Ides, Olde English 800, Colt 45, and Hurricane. I would have included Mickey’s and Steel Reserve [...]

Rock Solid Happenings

I had a great mixture of happenings and relaxing this weekend.
I finally got to see the lights on 34th Street in Hampden. I’d seen pictures, heard accounts, read blog entries… but they’re better in person. Christmas had already passed, but it still made me feel like a little kid. For the older appreciator in you [...]

After a non-stop jam-packed kick-ass weekend — including, but not limited to a holiday party at Evelyn’s Cafe (which I’d like to get back to to eat sometime), seeing (and liking) Scythian at Mick O’Shea’s, eating at the Papermoon Diner for the first (but not the last) time, going to a subwoofer shootout, DJ/MC/attending a [...]

Since Google Maps allows us to do custom layers, all the smoke free places on the list so have been plotted on a map. I was going to do this via the Google Maps API, but this was so much easier than dealing with the XML plus it allows collaboration.
The Map (which has a hideous [...]

We braved snowy roads and headed to Gina’s Cantina in celebration of Repeal Day last night. That’s not entirely true, but it was Wednesday and a few of us were up for being social.
Gina’s is located at the merging of General’s Highway and Veteran’s Highway, just south of Millersville. Most people who live in the [...]

I don’t really care if people smoke or not, but it does irritate me to come home after a night out and have to throw my clothes outside or start a load of laundry immediately to prevent the house from smelling like stale cigarette smoke. Not to the point of not going out, but enough [...]

I Am Such a Woman

I never go shopping.
I am the epitome of exemplary male psyche and behavior when it comes to buying stuff. I have a set list of items to get. I get in, purchase the items I need, then I get out. I don’t linger. I don’t cruise the store for other things that aren’t on the [...]

I have this habit of writing things down that make me laugh. Quotes are a big thing for me, especially on car trips. A quote can bring back memories long since forgotten. The only problem is that I occasionally misplace my notes. So here’s a few quotes from the car ride up to New Hampshire [...]
