What's Brewing

Check out The Onion A/V Clubs beer parings for this years Brewers squad. In my opinion, very spot on. I love the Ryan Braun comparison. 

I Got Iced!

I do not know if you have seen the latest internet sensation "Bros Icing Bros." On Friday night I got "Iced" and while my icing was not as innovative as others, the picture makes my bicep look huge. But I was not alone, my friend Greg Matzek got himself "Iced" that some evening. I guess I need to start caring Smirnoff Ice with me or get new friends. 

I love the look on the guys face behind Greg. He should have gotten "Ice" next. 

Punk Kids

I came across this photo from AP/WAOW-TV. Apparently some kids in Stevens Point were feeling inspired by The Electric Six. The kids changed this digital construction sign on Highway 39 to reflect their lyrics from the song "Danger! High Voltage." Very clever, kids.

Dear God 2.0

Always innovative Jim James has teamed up with the legendary Roots to put a new twist on the Monsters of Folk song "Dear God". You can download the single from RCRDLBL. Enjoy. 

RIP Gary Coleman

Steve Nash Sells Out & I Like It

I have been a big fan of Steve Nash since his college days. Ever since Nash has been pitching Vitamin Water, he has created viral gold. Nash gets very involved in the projects and this latest one is no different. The Space Ghost is a great touch. And for the record, I love the nickname "Nashcar Racer." 

Change Your Strategy

If this is how bears are going to fight, it is time to change my plan of laying down and playing dead....

A Blast From The Past

Regional reader DJ Kusi sent me the following Facebook group, Have Harvey Kuenn's Wooden Leg Replace Ken Macha As Brewers Manager. I laughed out loud and applaud the creativity. 

The leg resides at 4th Base Tavern in West Milwaukee. Legend has it that it's the official wooden leg Kueen used when he managed the Milwaukee Brewers. The way the Brewers are playing this year, anything would be an upgrade. 

Separated At Birth

Mollie "Vissers" Pape & some stock photo gal with a baby. The resemblance is uncanny. 

Teecycle A Wizconsin T-shirt

Just because of a printing mistake, doesn't mean that a perfectly good t-shirt should go to waste. Pick up this one of a kind Wizconsin t-shirt from Teecycle. Remember, a dollar of the sale of this shirt will be donated to the River Revitalization Foundation. 


Also, looking to kick start a modeling career? The next Teecycle photo shoot will take place on Saturday, May 22nd at the Urban Ecology Center.

R.I.P. Ronnie James Dio

For a man who was about four feet tall, he was one of the most prolific heavy metal singers of all time. I hope his final resting place is full of rainbows and dragons.

Get Away Day

With the Brewers dismal 4-13 home record, they should use pretty sweet looking Air Tran plane more often. I think it is time to send Macha packing and give Willie a shot. This turning out to be very long and disappointing season. 

Mess Around And Get A Triple Double

Word on the street is that Delonte West is having an affair with LeBron James' mom. Some speculate that is the cause of James poor play in the playoffs, especially in Game 5. This could seal Cleveland's fate with James. Be it truth or rumor, West has had one crazy year with all of his mental health issues. 

I do not think this is the distraction from basketball James had in mind. 

Can You Get The Ball Past England?

I am a novice when it comes to soccer. I came across this video for England's unofficial theme song for this summer's FIFA World Cup in South Africa. While I give the boys from We Are The Rulers an A for effort, my allegiance is with the good ole' U.S.A.

What Is The Soupe du jour?

It is the soup of the day and at Bad Genie it is Whiskey. That sounds good. I'll have that.

Bacon or Beer Can

You decide. Got to Bacon or Beer Can to settle this heated debate. 

Point Break Live

I can't wait for tomorrow night. I am going to see Point Break Live in Chicago. The Johnny Utah character is pulled from the crowd before the show, I hope it will be me. I love the theater. 

Big Day For Wizconsin

I hosted my first radio show and kicked started my modeling career thanks to Teecycle. I gotta say, today was a good day.

I Learned The Hard Way

Don't learn the hard way and miss their show at the Pabst Theater.
