Live from Vancouver, back by popular demand, hailed by some as the highlight of the whole event, it’s another edition of the unofficial butt sanctioned CIM conference wrap & tap review. * Each of us held our Destiny in our hands as we settled into some serious...
The COM are in the studio with the crownsmen and crownsladies for the show with the info, the webcast that’s a blast, and the hosts with the toasts. That’s right, it’s another episode of The Crownsmen Show. I was prepared for a tasting I’d been so looking forward to,...
For me the phrase easy rider brings to mind two Hopper choppers crossing 1960’s America in search of freedom with Born to be Wild playing in the background. Spoiler alert! Unfortunately, Billy and Wyatt’s search ends in their untimely demise when they come upon a...
Back in my day dragons were cute playful things, like Puff the Magic Dragon. Those subliminal messages about marijuana usage never affected us, or did they Fonger? * These days dragons are fire and brimstone 7 days a week, not just Sunday morning. We’ve sampled a few...

Water’s rising, time to pair up because the ark doesn’t take singles. But if you’re a Kiwi, high tides are no problem. You have your trusty waka on standby, maybe two if you’ve got a big family. * But you need to be well balanced, you don’t want to tip the waka,...
When it comes to World domination, Bowie thought the man who sold the world had been dead for years but he met him face to face in 1970. Cobain met him again in 93. * I have a theory about why the man who sold the world is so hard to find. I think it’s the classic...
