...damn the beer. Samuel Adams' $120 Utopias, in a ridiculous copper-covered 24-oz. (710 mL) bottle meant to resemble an old-fashioned brew kettle, looked like the perfect candidate for a smackdown. First off, it's barely a beer. It's not carbonated like a Bud but aged in oak barrels like scotch, and it has a vintage year, like a Bordeaux. It is also unbelievably delicious--like a port flavored with malt and a touch of bite from the hops, and somehow light, complex and free of any alcohol sting, despite having six times as much alcohol content...
...talking-animal soul mate called a daemon. It's a prequel, the story of how a young and not-yet-grizzled Lee Scoresby, gunslinging aeronaut extraordinaire, and his rabbit daemon, Hester, first met up with armored polar bear Iorek Byrnison. Nobody writes dialogue for gunslingers like a Brit: "Damn, Hester," Scoresby says, "you don't hit a drunk man with a stick." And, of course, nobody anywhere writes dialogue for bears like Pullman...
...Which is not to say that Clinton's candidacy is entirely without purpose now that she is pursuing a Republican-style race gambit, questioning Obama's 20-year relationship with the Rev. Jeremiah "God damn America" Wright. Democrats will soon learn how damaging that relationship might be in a general election. They'll also see if Obama has the gumption to bounce back, work hard-not just arena rallies for college kids but roundtables for the grizzled and unemployed in American Legion halls-and change the minds that have turned against him. The main reason superdelegates have not yet rallied...
...Obama chose Philadelphia to deliver his historic speech last week on race and to address concerns over his former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, after videos surfaced of Wright making controversial remarks, calling on parishioners to "God Damn America" and calling the country the "U.S. of KKKA." While the media storm has died down in the wake of Obama's speech, the effect that Wright may have on voters remains to be seen. "Is it possible Obama could win Pennsylvania? Yes, but it would take aggressive campaigning and a big shift in momentum his way," said Donald F. Kettl, a political...
...When the last of seven guest preachers, Rev. Rudolph McKissick, Jr. unleashed his anger against the recent media storm that catapulted Trinity to global notoriety, the crowd rose to their feet. McKissick thundered: "Fox News, CNN, ABC ... they're so stupid that they don't even know the word 'damn' is not a profanity but a Hebraic proclivity, meaning God's curse will fall on all those who defy his love. They know not with whom they are messing. Jeremiah Wright might have retired in body, but just like Jesus, he's coming back more powerful than ever! Damn...
