I just finished watching Invictus with my sister. It was actually a pretty good movie. I don’t think they could have picked anyone else to play Mandela other than Morgan Freeman. So, since I’m relaxing for the night and I don’t have anywhere to go, I figure I’ll do another review. I mean, I’ll probably [...]

Last night, I went out with my girlfriend to a restaurant in Rumson. It was a nice place with a definitely older bar scene. Katie was talking to me and I kept looking at the bar, and I finally had to explain it was because I was afraid that one of these 50+ year olds [...]

Well…I’m back. As usual, the holidays were a bit crazy and I had an absolutely insane weekend with some of my buddies. I also bought myself Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, which means that I’m back to playing video games. I also moved my PS3 into my bedroom, which was probably not the best [...]

I seriously think that I’m bad luck. Since I got my pager from the fire department, I have gotten 0 calls. Nothing. Nada. And, to make things worse, this is an incredibly busy department. I have the same luck in EMS. Whenever I would dispatch or be on the road, I’d get nothing. This could [...]

It was another crazy day. I didn’t get to hit the gym because I had to run a lot of errands, which included soaking beer bottles to get the labels off so that I can bottle my “October Blizzard” brown ale. Let me tell you, using oxyclean to clean out the primary was amazing. There [...]

Another weekend done. I feel like the weekends go so quickly and the rest of the week just drags on and on. Today, my sister and I hit up a local sports bar to watch the Giants game. It always shocks me when a bar has such a great setup and good food and a [...]

I hate Sundays, primarily because I have to work Mondays. Last night was a great night with lots of good beer flowing and I got to break in my new grill. I’m trying out new recipes for the tailgate for opening night and my taste testers couldn’t decide between the chimichurri or maple brown sugar [...]

I always wondered why Sam Adams didn’t have an IPA offering, especially since they seem to be such a great gateway brewery. When I heard that this one came out, I decided I had to try it, even though Chris told me that it wasn’t that great. ABV: 6% Style: American IPA Trivia: According to [...]

Another new offering from Sam Adams, only available in their winter beer 12 pack. Normally, I end up buying all of the mixed 12 packs from Sam, but this year I fell behind in my purchasing. Luckily, I was able to find one before they weren’t available anymore. ABV: 5.8% Style: Bock Trivia: According to [...]

I’ve been waiting to try this beer for a while. I knew once I picked it up, I had to wait for Chris to try it. I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews about the brew. It seems like there is no real gray area with it. People either love it or hate it. One [...]
