Where Have all the ‘ruit Cups Gone?

Do people still play Beiruit, Beerpong? Has it gone under ground as bros and sis’ have to grown up and stop using games to facilitate excessive drunkenness? Have other games taken precedent over Beiruit and it has gone the way of outdated games such as hurling, rounders, and cricket, morphed into other more modern games [...]

The Pool at Druid Hill Park: Not Daddy’s Country Club

As a red white and blue blooded American I spent the Fourth of July soaking up rays, chlorine, and lite beer.   Before I went to the sickest FOJ party (a term new to me this year) that I’ve ever attended on an RTD in Fed Hill, I went with LadyHipster and Hamsterdam to the pool [...]

Floristree Space: Where were you?

No one really knows what the Floristree Space is.  All I know is that last night it smelled like onions, art students wearing granny glasses, and a musty 6th floor wearhouse.  The Floristree is a…”space” on West Franklin St., right before West Franklin becomes really WESTerly.  Several intrepid hipsters shed their frat-smocks, donned faux mustaches, [...]

El Guapito: I wish I could have liked u more

I like to keep it positive, keep it up beat, but I’m going to bring the realness and tell you that I was disappointed given my high hopes for El Guapito (110 West Mulberry Street).  Hamsterdam and I are growing boys so sometimes we want to chow down on some Mexican food.  This particular friday [...]

Bathroom Crying

We’ve all been there.  Maybe your bro takes razzing you a bit too far and finds that secret weird tingly place inside your chest when he brings up the time you couldn’t make it to the bathroom in 7th grade art class, or the time you wore a coat and tie to a middle school [...]

Baltimore Sandwich Gods: DiPasquale’s

I can’t believe I’ve never been to DiPasquale’s (3700 Gough St.),  a famous Italian deli and market that has served Baltimore since 1914.  I will have to make up for lost time and feast upon their sweet sandwiches over the course of the next century.   Hat tip to co-blogger LolCat for leading me to DiPasquale’s [...]

Food for the Soul at M&J’s Soul Food

It is physically difficult to write the restaurant review that I am trying to write right now.  This will not stop me, though, from putting pen to pad and giving four catfish whiskers up for M & J’s Soul Food at 25th and Saint Paul St.  Not being well versed in soul food, I feel [...]

DINOWALRUS

Where were you last Sunday night?  You may have been putting away your scholarly tomes, or preparing for some early morning stock trades, perhaps you were finishing up a quick call with an important lobbyist or dotting the “i” on that contract you just signed with a snuggie.   Or you were rolling up to a [...]

The Allie Summit

I have been doing research recently on some of the many summits in 20th century American history.  Sometimes they go by the name conference, summit, gathering, but in any case, important figures come together to decide some course of action that will have lasting conequences for the rest of humanity.  In 1945 Roosevelt, Stalin and [...]
