First of all, Frosty the Friendship Dragon looks about as friendly as Drogon, Rhaegal, and Viserion after a battle with the Night King.* As in not too. Then I got thinking about other frosties, Frosty the Snowman (magical), Jack Frost (mystical) David Frost...
The movie lions that came to mind for me didn’t really elicit the fear response. The Cowardly Lion, “I'll fight you with one paw tied behind my back.” Elsa, “as free as the wind blows, as free as the grass grows,..” or Simba “hakuna matata”. * The there is the movie...
You know what two loons are called? A pair of loons of course. Do you know what a flock of loons are called? An asylum of loons! For real. How funny is that (redundant question). Love the brewery name. Love the loon logo. Love their slogan “Beer’s Calling” which could...
Brock Street claims to be “the most refreshing street in Canada”, although Mill Street, William Street, Schooner Street, Lock Street and a number of other street named breweries may challenge that claim. Regardless of who is the refreshest, I am a Brock Street fan. I...
Saturn, the Roman god of time and wealth. Sounds like an ancient Warren Buffet. Father of Jupiter, Neptune and Pluto (that’s Saturn, not Warren Buffet). And he got the coolest looking planet and the most fun day of the week named after him too (once again and just to...

The Leafs posted a shutout last night against the senile Senators. Is senile Senators a redundant statement?* The goalie was the hero with a zero. The Leafs are headed to the playoffs, the Senators are headed to the golf course. Which is my smooth slick segue into...
As a fisherman, I totally get Captain Ahab’s obsession with Moby Dick, or Santiago’s dogged resolve in bringing in that giant marlin.* There is something in the water for sure and once the ice is out there will be two things in the water. My line and that lunker...
Crowd surfing. Diving into a sea of strangers at a rock concert and hoping they will not drop you or move out of the way as you make your stage dive. Who could ever have thought up and actually tried for the first time such a wild, fraught with risk, most likely to...
I love me an amber. An ember, not so much. But this Burning Ember is a Lake of Bays Red IPA so maybe it will be an ember to remember. The brewers will explain a red IPA with a lot of technical mumbo jumbo but basically it’s more malts to go with the hops. Another...
