Tetris Ice Cube Tray. Awesome. Summer Boozy Goodness couldn’t make it to the blog today. It’s too busy trying to fight off the heat with nakedness, ice water and many, many mojito’s. In its place, please enjoy the following sneak peek recipe, from next weeks Lush Life column on Sub Rosa Spirits: Tarragon Mojito Julep1 […]
Drunk
Yes, Poindexter, Beer Goggles Do Exist.
A recent study in the UK has proven that drinkers find people more attractive after booze consumption. From FOX News: Scientists in England gave 84 heterosexual college students chilled lime-flavored drinks that were either non-alcoholic or given a dose of vodka equivalent in alcohol to a large glass of wine or a pint-and-a-half of beer.

Ice-Skating Chimps: NEED I SAY MORE?!
I know a few of you are strongly considering auditioning for PIZZAZZ: Portland’s Funnest Talent Show (especially since you can win $1000 dope cash money). But I also know that some of you are holding back because you’re afraid that you may have to compete against “Ice-Skating Chimps.” WELL FEAR NOT. As it turns out, […]
Monday Bloody Monday
Old-timey hangover The Place: Huber’s, 411 SW 3rd Avenue What Prompted the Visit: Well, there’s nothing better than drinking a bloody mary after your company’s softball team dominates its rival. Besides, I needed something to cool my heckle ravaged throat. Also, I’d just been to the Bite of Oregon and I needed something to calm […]
Summer Boozy Goodness: Crossover!
One simple word Earlier this week, on the Monday Bloody Monday post, Blogtownies weighed in regarding their ultimate bloody mary. Before I go further. I must first offer a “mea culpa.” In the post, I thoughtlessly gave away the secret ingredient to my wife, Kitty’s, bloody mary. She was none too pleased. But she should […]
BBQ Is Not a Verb
And Florida is not a southern state. At least, that’s the opinion of this group of good ‘ol boys who pick an’ grin their way through a musical primer of Southern BBQ styles. It’s both educational and drool inducing. Did you know that people from South Carolina put a mustard sauce on their BBQ? All […]
Sexman Gets Braces; Appears Somewhat Defensive

Monday Bloody Monday: The Question Edition
I knew it would come down to this, eventually. I knew that there would come a weekend where the indulgence and debauchery would not be enough to send me spinning into the next day looking for that elixir of life, known as the bloody mary. This was such a weekend, friends. Which is not to […]
Your Friday Afternoon Freakout
Just you try not to dream about this guy tonight… JUST YOU TRY!!!
Summer Boozy Goodness
I don’t know if it’s because I’m writing this SBG post on an overcast day while listening to Tom Waits, or what… But I’m in the mood for a little whiskey. Now, whiskey isn’t my usual summertime libation. Its warmth, and woodsy tones, make it what I crave as the leaves begin to turn. But […]
