The Italian lights are certainly a highlight of my past trips. The beautifully lit canals of the Venetian, so romantic at night. Then there is the impressive stature of Ceasars Colosseum, even more impressive in the evening. And of course, those famous Italian...
If you’re Canadian and participating in Dry February, you picked a bad week to stop drinking. That being said, these political issues seem to be trying and painful, just like Dry February is, but remember what George Harrison said about kidney stones, all things must...
I dated a girl named Purity once. Or was it Felicity? No. Maybe it was Serenity. No that wasn’t it either. Trinity perhaps? How could I forget, it was Chastity, but that relationship didn’t go too far. * Walkerville is citing the Bavarian Purity Laws** as the origin...
After a long dark journey to Uranus, which in the end was about as pleasant as it sounds, we suited up for a much closer destination, Mars. JT, in his pre-dry February days, had already signed up for a mission to Mars with some Space Rations. But you don’t have to...

Kingston, Canada. The home of incarceration and education.** Some students may think the two are one in the same. However when claustrophobic classrooms, pedantic professors and repellant roommates start to become too much, Queen’s students have a welcome respite in...
Seger was making some night moves on the Silver Bullet Express, while Johnny wanted to move that train a little further down the line.* But when it comes to the night train, Guns N’ Roses rode it so hard their Axl got busted. “I'll be loaded like a freight train,...
I'd seen Old Speckled Hen on the shelves and decided to finally breakdown and drink one. I figured it was one of those 200 year old UK traditions from the sound of the name. I mean “Speckled Old Hen” sounds like one of those English pubs where everyone is drunk and...
