Someone left us a comment asking us if we were going to blog about the departure of pop icon Michael Jackson. And over dinner with friends last night, everyone agreed that regardless of how our music choices had diverged in the past decade, we were all familiar with MJ’s music when we were growing up. [...]
We’ve had several folks tell us that, like us, they love traveling and love having a tipple. Well, someone sent this story to us and we couldn’t agree more that this is probably one of the best ways to see any city, the Beer Karaoke Bike…
