    Trump’s democrapocalyptic plans to destroy the world apparently require such regularly shenanigans and clusterfuckery that barely a day goes by without hearing hearing his name plastered across the news. Even here in Canada. And I get sick of hearing about him and his cabinet of cosplaytriots. I’ve heard the name Trump so much that the word has lost all meaning. Ironic, given that Trump can’t trump shit.

    Space nerds on China’s Tiangong space station were cosmically swashbuckling the space decks and swabbed a new type of bacteria. They discovered a new bacterium called Niallia tiangongensis. Then they brought it back to Earth. My immediate reactoin was to scream loud enough that the astronauts on Tiangong could hear me:“Nope.”“Put. It. Back.”Earth is fucked up enough right now. We don’t need to bring new space flora and fauna back to our planet.

    Have you ever heard someone speak and immediately wonder if they’re a friend of Dorothy? That’s ‘gay voice’; it’s a thing. It doesn’t have to be overly-dramatic, like Jack on Will & Grace, even minor voice inflections can give off a gay vibe from those in the skittles community.

    Jamie Kutch tends to make very elegant Pinot Noir's.  Ruby in color, clear and bright.  The nose is nice with cherries, cherry cough drops, slight sour cherries and slighter cola.  Medium bodied.  Light tannins.  Nicely balanced.  On the palate, this seems fully mature.  Some depth and complexity.  Good finish.  This is drinking very well and seems about at peak.  It  should be at this level for at least another five years.  It is very nice on its own and will work well with the right foods.

    Most of us have probably heard about whiskey dick. Well, maybe not the devout Seventh-Day Adventists and other bible thumpers-not-humpers. If you’re one of those, go on and clutch your pearls now, because shit’s about to get sinnery. Whiskey dick is when your pump-action DNA rifle has a leaky hose. It happens after you’ve had too many wiggly stumble pops.
