Westin Bristol Place Toronto Airport TP, originally uploaded by edkohler. Le Westin Montreal could learn a thing or two about TP folding from the Toronto airport location. Sounds like an opportunity for a TP retreat to me.

BK Kids Meals – Minneapolis’ Campbell Mithun’s Junk Food Client

I don’t have kids or eat many kids meals at junk food restaurants, so I’m not particularly familiar with what places like Burger King have been peddling as food to children lately.

For example, here’s a breakdown of the popularity of the term “Yellow Pages” in the United States, according to [...]

This amazing house on Gray’s Bay in Wayzata (16500 Grays Bay Blvd) is proof that Twin Cities residents like to drink. Why? Because the CEO of MGM Liquor owns it. It’s currently on the market for $2,895,000. 500 feet of Lake Minnetonka lakeshore, a pool, party room, and an incredible wine cellar (of course). Five [...]

Luke Hellier’s Latest Attempt to Smear RT Rybak

Luke Hellier, over at Minneapolis Democrats Exposed, is continuing to have problems with the truth on his website.
