Believe it or not, amid all the violence and unrest in the Middle East, a new microbrewery has managed to take root and even become popular enough to front a two-day festival high up in the hills of the West Bank. Screw the UN, if this place survives all the bombing and hardline anti-booze dogma [...]
If you’re like me, you’ve been waiting for the chance to talk dirty to the Governor General ever since sexy Michaelle Jean took over the office a year ago. Well now’s your chance. To celebrate her one year anniversary as G-G, Jean launched Citizen Voices, a site that’s supposed to allow regular Canadians to “engage [...]
Went to the Blue Jays’ last home game last night. Fortunately they ended the season on a high note with a 5-0 win over the Red Sox — securing second spot in in their division. That’s right, we’re No. 2. Woot! We were sitting in the VIP Club section behind home plate which means we [...]

And also, pregnant women don’t necessarily like beer any less because of what’s cookin’ in the oven, so why should they be deprived of a safe, reasonable facsimile. Kudos [...]
This should come as a surprise to no one, but Jay-Z has officially ended “the worst retirement in history.” Back in ’02 he said he wasen’t going to perform anymore, but it’s been tough to find a year since then when he hasen’t been involved in at least a couple of hits on the pop [...]
You know sometimes when you wake up in the middle of the night thinking you heard something like a gun shot, or cop sirens or something? If you’re like me, you probably tell yourself you’re still drunk and to go back to sleep. But then there are times when your neighbours house gets shot up. [...]
Isn’t she pretty in-toxicated Beer and sloots were aplenty at Victoria Secret’s sorority -style keg party. But what’s with the Tims holding the trays of Tab? Total party foul. Natural born a-holes Perps busted after they ditch grand theft auto for grand theft beers. You got greedy boys. At least they weren’t drinking and [...]
