I haven’t studied this thoroughly, but I’m pretty sure Reidy’s Market on 42nd Ave S at 39th St E has the largest selection of porn mags in the Longfellow Neighborhood. This got me thinking: Where else in the Twin Cities can you find extensive porn selections and milk in the same store? Sure, Sex World [...]
Giving a crap doesn’t take much time. Small efforts really do add up. For example, Johnny Northside called in some deadbeat landlords from his cell while out for a caffeine pickup: Of course, making 311 calls wasn’t the PURPOSE of my walk. In fact, I was just going to the grocery store. But I don’t [...]
I turned 35 today, which is a kind of meaningless milestone. For at least 10 years now, I’ve been able to legally drive, vote, drink and rent a car. And I jumped the gun on my first free prostate exam due to a family history, so I achieved no major milestone that I’m aware of [...]

No Gimmies The Craig Show launched today. What’s that? A new locally produced online golf show for people who think golf can be an enjoyable sport. Craig is local golfer, Craig Teiken, who has some strong opinions about golf’s stuffiness, reliance on gadgets, and worthless teaching fads. In some ways, this reminds me of what [...]
Molly Priesmeyer put together a great article for LiveGreenTwinCities.com about the yellow pages spam problem from an environmental perspective. We can save forest, unclog landfills, and cut back on the carbon it takes to make and deliver unwanted phone books by simply not delivering them to people who no longer want them. Green Star: Meet [...]
Flyspy’s current chart of flights between Minneapolis (MSP) and Chicago’s Midway Airport (MDW) illustrates the Southwest Effect: Things get interesting on March 8th.
