Franzinkaner Hefe-Weisse and Sierra-Nevada Anniversary Ale

The Franzinkaner Hefe Weisse is really good. Indeed. Been thinking about it. That's when you know its a good beer....Paul Rating:A. The Sierra Nevada Anniversary Ale was very disappointing. I give it a C.

Dylan For President

Great Freakin' Book. Paul Rating: A+. Its funny, someone the other day was talking about the 60's and how when they were growing up , the 60's looked like absolute hell to them. I said" Like, man, where do I sign up?! Smokin hot hippie chicks all over the place, people involved in politics, a feeling that things may actually change......A feeling that IT might really happen." It was truly a special moment in American history. I can't get enough of it. I am also immersed in The Civil War as well. I guess I'm interested in being at battle with oneself.......Well ,if your a wanna-be revolutionary like myself, go and read this book, because its all tied into rock-n-roll and it's just fascinating. I don't blame Bobby-D for not wanting to be President. He probably would of turned into Castro.

Madden 09

This is by far the best football video game I have ever played. It's not perfect.... That title only goes to my wife, but this game has stunning graphics and great game play. Stadiums are incredible. Weather affects the field and your uniforms. I'm hooked. Online play is difficult, as you can imagine. I am currently 0-4, with only one touchdown to my name, and that came on defense! You better practice if your going to play online, these people are serious. Paul Rating: A.

NO SOLICITING !!!!!! That means YOU!!!

Is it just me or is everyone getting harassed lately? I've got people coming to my front door trying to sell me steaks, baby books, alarms, sprays to remove rust, Jehovah Witnesses, questionable pollsters, poor college/high school students selling magazines......It just doesn't end. I put a "NO SOLICITING" sign right in the middle of my door and they still knock. Its ridiculous. The city of Plantation needs to do something like this. Then to top it off, when I go to Publix or Blockbuster, I've got groups of people standing around in front of the store with religious literature....(" Sorry, No Hab-La-Es-Pan-Yol"). I really think it should be against the law to go around door to door selling shit. I really do. Nowadays, I don't want ANYBODY at my door I don't know.

Franziskaner and Samuel Smith Oatmeal Stout

Yes, another visit to Total Wine. Its a bit more fun on Saturday night because the store is filled with all sorts of characters. Raging alcoholics, tourists, and your average knucklehead drinker seem to be in there. Mark, from the rag-tag hardcore fishing crew , "Insufficient Funds" recommended the Franziskaner(Below). Paul Rating on this beer is a B. The dark beer is Samuel Smiths Oatmeal Stout. Very interesting flavors going on here. Very good. Paul Rating: A.

When will I grow up and stop playing Video Games?

Its a very good question. But the question should be "Why should I stop?????" Throughout my entire life, video games have been present in my house. I have had all of the following systems: Pong, Breakout, Odyssey, Intellivision, Nintendo, Super Nintendo, Nintendo 64, Sega, Sega Genesis, Sega Genesis 2, Playstation, Playstation 2, X-Box, X-Box 360. (No, we never did get an Atari.) And I hope to get the WII next. Its just that video games are getting so much better, richer, more deep and complex. I know for many women out there, this is the kind of talk you want your 35 year old husband to be saying about YOU, not a stupid video game. Will women ever "get into" video games? RockBand, Guitar Hero and WII seem to have sparked an interest. So the world we live in.... and with the recent birth of my boy, I can look forward to another 20+ years of excuse-free video game playing..... HAHA!!!!!!............SUCKERS!

Prison Break Seasons 1-2 (DVD) = Female Soft Porn

Prison Break Seasons 1 & 2 are really good. There are many " O My God!" moments, but you just have to accept the fact that this a TV show, not reality. My Mother bought us season 1 and told us we should watch it since we really liked Friday Night Lights (which she bought for us as well). It seems my Mom and wife want to "cougar it up" with a certain young male character on the show. OK... fine. But then my Mom brings over Prison Break 1 and tells my wife that she is going to love the guys in this even more. Whats going on here??? Is my Mom a female smut peddler?? Is this how women trade and disseminate soft porn? This is very interesting stuff...... I'm starting to get the picture now. Season 3 comes out on DVD in August some time and I'm sure, well I know, my Mom and wife will be going up to Blockbuster to rent it.

Best Pizza in Broward = Angelo's Corner

Is it because it's right on the beach? Is it because it's right near the racquetball courts, new parking garage and water fountain park? Is it because the sauce, cheese, crispy dough and perfect crust complete the ultimate trilogy of pizzadom? Yes, Yes and YES! Angelo's Corner IS the best pizza in Broward, hands down. I've been eating there my entire life and nothing gets me more stoked than going down to Garfield Street and having a coupla slices and an ice cold beer. The Hollywood Beach Broadwalk is much improved, and it's one of the reasons that makes me enjoy living in South Florida. Runner up easily goes to Umberto's in Pembroke Pines on University Dr.

Is it really the News?

I'll be the first to admit it, I am a total news junkie. For my local news, I am an ABC Channel 10 person, despite the fact its not in HD. For National news it's NBC and MSNBC. A benefit of watching so much news is you become well acquainted with all the "News Hotties". Locally, my current "Number One with a Bullet" is Jacey Birch from Channel 10. The most underrated in my opinion, who should be getting a lot more attention is Pam Giganti from NBC 6. Shannon Hori from CBS 4 gets some props as well. As for the national scene, its probably a tie between Norah O'Donnell and Natalie Morales, both of the NBC Universe. Kirian Chetry of CNN gets you with the bubbly cute factor. CNBCs Maria Bartiromo and Erin Burnett will tell you if your 403b plan is making you any money. As for the Hated Fox Network, all hope is not lost. Megyn Kelly and Julie Banderas make you forget about all the hypocrites that work there.
