It just dawned on me that I was supposed to be writing tonight's Open Thread. AGAIN! WOOPS! Fuck me in the goat ass. I swear one of these weeks I'll remember and prepare. Things to discuss: I played golf in the rain AGAIN on Thursday. I didn't do as well as the last time.

It just dawned on me that I was supposed to be writing tonight's Open Thread. WOOPS! I will do a real good Karen Carpenter job. Several things to discuss: I played in DAY ONE of my golf club championship today. I broke 100 and scored a 98. Day 2 is tomorrow. I'm in

It has been remarkably cold and wet in Southern California this year. We started with Atmospheric Rivers in January that bled into February and even into March. Then we stopped getting Rivers and just got good ole regular April Showers. Those eventually relented and we thought the sun would finally

Good evening to you from a smoky hellscape due to forest fire smoke. Two weeks ago you may remember that I was enjoying beers on a patio in Edmonton and it was incredibly hot for this time of year. Well, you add hot to dry and throw in some dumb humans

Oh Boy! Rotational Thursdays with Litre.

Good evening. Here's the background to this tasting. You may be aware that in the past during the offseason I used to do an international snaxx post where I would get high and go to international grocery stores for stoner food. Well, I once mentioned that I would enjoy trying Skyline

Good evening to you! At this point I've just returned from a much needed vacation in Arizona! You see, my folks, and my in-laws both live in Phoenix because they are not stupid and flee the Canadian winter. Sadly they live clear across town from each other so I did so

The last one. Sweet mother of god am I ever eager to get this league over with. A night at the alley with friends while luring meeting lady tourists? Great time. 4 months of league bowling? Sure, that’s swell. I can do those things and enjoy them. But almost 7 full months

Finally, mercifully, we’ve almost reached the end. Only a couple more greasy gutters into which we must dip our collective fingers. Week 25 is upon us and according to the league webpage this will be the last night of regular play and then there will be some sort of “roll-off”

There is light amid the darkness. Not only did mister Lily and I (mostly him) actually win a game last week but we are now on week 24 or 25 of 27. I think it’s 24 but it’s hard to tell from the weekly results sheet. Usually when our married teammates

The final month. The stretch drive. The long walk off a short pier. That’s where we are finally at in this endless winter of a bowling season. The sun is out, the snow is gone, yard waste collection has resumed, but the league year continues unabated. It cares not for
