Alec Baldwin. I didn’t like him, then I liked him. Now I just want him to go away and not come back until he’s thought about what he’s done. When he’d host Saturday Night Live – which, for a while, seemed to happen every other […]
A government report in November 2013 showed that a girl from Somalia was smuggled to the United Kingdom for the sole purpose of having her organs harvested. This is the first known such case but child protection charities say it’s unlikely that it’s an isolated […]
She’s coming over for the first time. You’ve spent all evening hiding dirty socks under the sofa cushion and hiding the anal porn stash, now it’s time to make sure all this was not in vain. It’s time to seal the deal. This is not […]
One of the oddest ironies of living on an energy-ravenous planet is that so many of our developing countries happen to be located near the equator, and are already receiving much more sunlight and rainfall than most other countries on the planet. Yet, in spite […]
50 IBU 9.8% ABV Old ales come across as a risky style, but I have yet to try one that I do not love. Without delving into the detailed science behind the attenuation and the fermentation of sugars from the wort during the mashing process […]
It’s a problem most bicycle commuters face on a daily basis. After you reach your destination of choice, what do you do with your lights? For years I’ve been stuck with either carrying them around in an awkward canvas sports bag, or crossing my fingers […]
Is feminism working? What was it aiming for in the first place? And, has it actually been co-opted by the very system it set out to oppose? These (and other) questions are begged in an article by American professor Nancy Fraser, recently published in the […]
Too shy to strike up a conversation with a tall, dark and handsome stranger you encounter in person? With Cheek’d, you set up an online profile and then order a set of cards with prewritten witty remarks like “Our future is in your hands” or […]

Red Ale – 8.65% ABV – 77 IBU Lagunitas hits another home run with this superb red ale. These motherfuckers and their beer remind me of Schwarzenegger in “Commando”. Do you remember how he went into that tool shed and used every garden and power […]
As I’ve oft repeated, it’s cold now, so perfect weather to sit your butt on a sofa and read books. However, not all books will do. I recently read a novel that almost drove me insane, and I liked that; realistic narratives can be expressively […]

The invitation said that the dress code was formal, so L and I went shopping. The initial high from shopping soon dissolved into a low-grade stress in trying to find something suitably skanky yet high-end without breaking the bank. I had never been to a […]
The art of making love begins when getting off is not the goal. Having an orgasm is the icing on the cake perhaps but the cake itself is where the magic happens. There are cupcake shops whose main draw is the icing. Big globs of […]
Porter – 5.2% ABV/30 IBU “Black Butte” (pronounced “Black Byoot”) porter is quite legendary in America if you ask me. It is considered one of the best, if not the best straight-up session porters in circulation. When I lived in Atlanta I had a few friends […]
