A Smoky from Muskoky

A Smoky from Muskoky

Ritchie Blackmore saw it on the water, the Platters got some in their eyes, Matt Dillon's was from a gun, and Fonger is glad it's legal now.* Yep, we're talkin' smoke. A smoky campfire pilsner from Muskoka to be exact. Swillin' and grillin' Lord willin'. Not that it...

The Cure for an Incomplete Education

The Cure for an Incomplete Education

Is it an incomplete education or an uncomplete education? Based on my attendance record there's a good chance I missed that class. For completeness you can look for a small library and read every book in it, or you can do like I did and sign up for Niagara...
