Until last summer, the state fair had hosted a homebrew competition for 22 years and […]

Can Technology Protect You from Your (Drunken) Self?
I thought it was funny to joke about my iPhone needing a breathalyzer—until someone actually invented one.

Probably Have To Report This:
Via Portlandfood.org: Stumptown is opening up a bar (and not the coffee-cupping kind) next door to their original location on Division. Construction, they say, is already underway. Lets hope a great Spanish coffee recipe is as well. OK…back to pretending to read manuscripts while watching the NCAA tournament live on my telephone (!).
