I remember walking into the gym for my first high school dance. The only reason I remember is the first song I heard the band play was Smoke on the Water, and I was hooked on Deep Purple from that day on. So when you hear Storm Chaser you may be thinking of Helen Hunt...
Kingsville, Kingston, King City, King’s Town, the Lion King, a King with an axe beats one-eyed jacks. Hey, we have a new King now don’t we, our first in over 70 years. It’s the man formerly known as Prince! I wonder if his reign will be purple? He certainly has big...
Broadhead aren’t giving us the gears when they name their oatmeal stout Oatmeal Stout. Coincidence? I think not. There is very little mystery to this glass of stout, but don’t worry, I’m still going to get to the bottom of it. They tell us to “work hard, drink easy”....
Monday Night Football wild card game, my Dallas Cowboys vs. Old Man Brady and his Tampa Bay Young Bucs. The Dallas defense took Buc passer Brady to school, it wasn’t the Cowboys first rodeo but it may be Brady’s last one. Never sure of the outcome of any game, I had...

I don’t think anyone would mistake me for someone who is carb or calorie conscious and I wouldn’t know an electro-light from a red light, but that didn’t stop me from trying this Rally session lager with electrolytes. To be honest, my first thought was that an...
My first mobile phone (not including the Motorola bag phone we moved from truck to truck) was a BlackBerry. 2002 cutting edge Canadian technology. I loved all my BlackBerrys. There was Pearl, a real beauty. Then Curve, loved those curves. Then Bold, marketing slogan:...
My first thought when I saw 360 was I wonder what 5 days of the year we shouldn’t be drinking this brew on and was today one of them? Then I thought “I guess a February 29th is right out.” Then I thought “today is a day, it might as well be the day!”* Sleeping Giant...
Although some have called me a spin doctor on occasion I wouldn’t profess to being a ping pong pro. Now when it comes to shooting pool, I have run the table once or twice in my day, but I always found myself behind the 8 ball when it came to playing for money. Prince...
