Old School Zero - May 14, 2015

It feels like there's been a lot of grousing about things lately--and likely for good reason--but I figure we may as well make an official thread for recent complaints and any other things you need to yell into the cloud (SEE WHAT I DID THERE?!?!). Personally, I'm tired of people basing

Kommenter Kocktail Society: Important Bourbon Notes

OH WE GON DRANK

Old School Zero - May 7, 2015

Since there's really no news of any sort to cover right now, other than Underball Swede-ing his own New England-based version of "Big Fan", I wanted to cover some very important information about bourbon I ran across today. A friend posted this article which contained a link to this helpful list regarding just

Old School Zero - May 6, 2015

Dateline: May 6, 2015 Greetings and salutations, patient readers! I've enjoyed my time away from my trusty word processor on my forced vacation this past while. It's given me a new perspective on all the things that make my life and career special; namely, the absence of assaults on my persons

Old School Zero - April 29, 2015

(Scene: Albuquerque, NM. Late in the night, or perhaps early in the morning. A nondescript apartment, dimly lit. Sounds of pleasure from multiple individuals can be heard from a different room. Suddenly things go very quiet.) (DOOR FLIES OPEN) HOT WOMAN: (storming out of the room) Goddamnit, that'll fucking teach me to

Boring Friday Post

OH WE GON DRANK

Old School Zero - April 24, 2015

Hello. My name is OldSchoolZero and I'd like to talk at you for a while. Please feel free to fall asleep, or masturbate and then fall asleep, or fall asleep and masturbate, or just masturbate, while I blah blah blah blah blah blah. I had a whole post in my head

An evening of SESTOSTERONE!

Insane Shit

Old School Zero - April 18, 2015

I'll update this in a bit with actual information and tidbits from the evening, but for now... OH HAI MARK! Update: The evening began with a half hour documentary based around his book, which was cool and had a lot of on-set making-of footage, and the entire commercial Tommy made to get his

Old School Zero - April 15, 2015

Dateline: April 14th, 2015 Hello, dear readers, and welcome to a special dispatch from the road. I'd normally be filling your eyes with typeset magnificence from my smoke filled den, but thanks to certain Acts of God (and, if I'm being honest, one certain man), I'm temporarily on the lam. It all

Remember that in-person interview I was so excited about? Well, I just got the call that they're hiring me! I'M A WINNER TODAY! Not only does it seem like a really good fit for a new job, but I also get to leave this shitty job in the dust. I'M

Kommenter Kocktail… uh… Society: Lime Appreciation Day

OH WE GON DRANK

Old School Zero - April 6, 2015

I rediscovered one of my favorite cocktails the other night, and in PK style, I'm not going to talk about it for at least another paragraph. For good reason, though, it got me thinking about how limes are the Swiss Army Knife of the cocktail world: useful across a multitude

Old School Zero - April 3, 2015

Dateline: April 3, 2015 Right of the bat, my loyal readers, that date tells you a critical piece of information: this is no April Fool's day joke. No sir, good ol' Bud wouldn't do that to his discerning audience. The only April Fool's day joke I played this year involved a

Old School Zero - March 27, 2015

I've had enough of this damn week, so I'm going to fill this space with some pictures. That one above is from last September at a school in NW Portland that has a defunct chimney that thousands of birds called Swifts sleep in every night for a month or so

Old School Zero - March 18, 2015

Dateline: March 18th, 2015 I apologize for the tardiness of my words, loyal readers of mine, as a conflagration of certain personal proclivities and the lack of available advertising revenue for your venerable local rag prevented me from my usual timely coverage of the Biggest Spectacle In Our Fair Favorite Footballin'
