It's Day Two of the three-day Victoria Day weekend up here in Canada. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7opwenLcR0 Reminder - Leonard Cohen is hippier dogshit than The Doors.

Two things of note to observe this Victoria Day weekend: Item the First: Since it's tWBS Tribute Week, I know this little Twitter moment would have had him rolling in laughter. https://twitter.com/donmoyn/status/1395736719190863872 For those of you not up to speed, U*NC (Seamus' preferred nomenclature) revoked a journalism professor's proposed tenure position because of her

Sharkbait - May 21, 2021May 21, 2021

Finally, FINALLY it is seasonable up in the northeast. What that means is warm days and warm weather drinking! To me, that is solidly rum territory, and that's what I wanted to work with this week. I'm turning to the Waldorf Astoria bar book for a book named for a

Your Sunday Evening Remaining NHL Playoff Preview – West & North Divisions

Beerguyrob - May 16, 2021May 16, 2021

Like I said yesterday - this was much easier to type early than some generic Open Thread. Plus, I get to take shots at the Leafs! Now, the North starts late because the Canucks - who aren't even in the playoffs, or playing a playoff team - have to run out

In lieu of typing up something banal, I thought I would use tonight & tomorrow to preview the Stanley Cup playoffs' first round matchups. (Please ignore the fact that the Canucks & Flames are playing out the string.) Normally I save these for during the week, but thought the weekend

Sharkbait - May 14, 2021May 13, 2021

I wanted to stick with the rum theme established last week, since I still have an urge to jet off to "St. Somewhere" and just lounge on a beach in paradise all day. I think I'm still going through some pandemic fatigue, and attempting to relive that by flying to

So, my casual Sunday, which I thought was going to involve beer, sports, and gardening, turned out instead to be a series of pitstops at home design outlets to look at shower fixtures. Because you can't spend the type of money WineWife wants to invest in a new bathroom &

Well, we made it through another week. In keeping with my gerenal weekend themes of gifs & videos in lieu of actual words, I raise a glass to one and all. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSyB-OIRtR0 As we crawl along towards both summer and the lifting of COVID restrictions, I'm reminded that there are a lot
