If you want good beer in the home of Miller/Coors/Blue Whosits (Golden, CO), go to Golden City Brewery. I’ve got friends who live and work there - and hate the Coors family with the fiery heat of a thousand suns. Thus the visit to another brewery. No Coors tour for me.

Nope. They are adorbs, but have done jackshit on the national stage since they were handed the golden mic at the last Democratic National Convention.

If “by a few years ago,” you mean 1991 - then yes, they did ask someone to leave. And have apologized about that for years. They do seem to ask folks who don’t fit their notion as to who the festival is/was meant for to stay home.

Maybe he can explain this to Stacey Dash. He’s a dude so she’ll believe him.

The utter “irony” of people on a travel oriented sub-blog on Jezebel concern trolling why and how other women travel on their own damn money. If you are this lost, perhaps it’s best if you stay home.

I have very little disposable income and I travel. To over 40 countries. Mostly since I turned 35. I like meeting new people, trying new things, learning about how other folks live. I travel to places where my hard-earned bucks go far, I get around on public transportation, I stay in places I can afford, and I plan. I…

You know this ... how? Did he do an interview, write a think piece, put it in skywriting?

Where the hell are you people flying that no one helps? I’m a towering 5’2” and folks get my bags down for me all the time. Oh ... wait ... that’s because I’m not trying to jam a full sized suitcase into the over head bin. If my bag is so heavy that it needs wheels, it gets checked. Sucks when you have to pay for it,…

Wait. What? All I got from that is that it is softball/baseball season down there in Sitka. We are easily a month away from that up here in Fairbanks. I’ve got snow in my yard and the moose poop is still frozen to the ground. Also, for those of who are outraged she wasn’t picking up dog shit? Look at a map. It’s…

As did I. As did everyone else who worked in the dining hall kitchen as their work-study job in college. “Why on earth is she talking to the Hobarts?” muses I and the rest of my fellow minons.

Like a chewy clam. Similar to geoduck. It’s pretty good. If you like clams. And geoducks.

They are delicious, if you like clams. Their defense mechanism involves turning themselves inside out. So if you are cooking them, the first thing you do is get them to turn themselves inside out so you can get to the meat easier.

In the long-ago times when my city still had Burger Kings (we’re talking the second largest city in the state, BTW), I got to the point where I would go there once a month just to see what mysteries and wonders they would do with my Whopper, with cheese, extra tomato, no pickle order. I think they got it right once.…

You know you are an old when all of these Rock-Me-Sexy-Jesus guys look and sound all alike. While strumming the same gee-tar. Isn’t this the same dude from The Civil Wars?

It was one of the first first costume dramas I ever saw and I loved it. Will have to see it again.

And the reason you assume Kara can't like Steely Dan is because she is ___________?

Read for work since I was giving bear safety lectures on the regular. Old National Park Service ranger joke: "What do you call people who mountain bike? Meals on wheels."

Take a book. A real, written on paper, book. Few things suck worse than getting on the plane, powering down your e-reader, and then having the plane push back from the jetway, and sit. And sit. And sit. And sit. Personal record, nearly 11 hours at the Indira Gandhi International Airport (New Delhi). Or having the…

I fly Alaska Airlines, a lot. I don't really have a choice since I actually live in ... Alaska. They have always been gloriously sketchy. When I was a kid, and they were a regional carrier, they were known around these parts as "Elastic Airlines," and were notorious for leaving a minimum of 3 hours late-ish. Now they…
