Quarters and breast milk

In recent beer news, there's now an iPhone app that lets you play quarters.

In recent non-beer news, PETA has asked Ben & Jerry's to substitute human breast milk for the cow milk ingredients in their ice cream.

In PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman's words, the suggestion is merely common sense. "The fact that human adults consume huge quantities of dairy products made from milk that was meant for a baby cow just doesn't make sense," she said.

Can't argue with that logic.

That's just stinkin' thinkin!

Proposed official theme of the next Beerluck: "You're good enough, you're smart enough, and doggone it, people like you!"

A penny for your thoughts.

To the bars: The latest on Beerluck NY musings

Featured contributor: Hayes S.

Beerluck Association of New York is now implementing a new beer-cept into this beer-ocracy. Given locational constraints, we are seriously considering a beerluck in a bar with open patio in which pitcher exchange occurs in lieue of 6 pack. Same high standards apply, though this intimate gathering becomes limited, but able to be thrown oftenly and with great impromptu-ness.

Thirty more beer to save the world.

And did you know in Slovakia, its considered rude to whip it out while facing the sun?

Sockpuppetry? I think not.

But some thought so. Remember this fiasco?

Oh man, you should've come to the Wizard Party

And if you did, good. Because it was the real sh*t. I ain't talkin' bout no fake sh*t. Kanye West asks, "Does anybody make real sh*t anymore?" If you were at the Wizard Party, your answer would be a resounding YES. You'd be like, we do. We Wizard Partyers, we do.

Alright, enough of that. What does this mean? Firstly, this was Jon Wirt's birthday party. Secondly, the object of the game is to duct tape the cans of beer that you've finished to the can of beer you are currently drinking, such that a long staff is formed. Right: the kind of staff a wizard might wield. So as you can see, the Wizard Party was kind of like a beerluck, except with much worse beer and no exchange and not really a celebration of tasty beer or anything that resembles a well-crafted brew.

If you're particularly hardcore about drinking non-crappy beer, like Jen and Laura, the lovely ladies photographed below, you can make a staff out of glass bottles, but this requires a level of ninja-dom known only to the deadliest and most loyal beerluck attendees.

Halt the jabbering, get to the photos! Ok, say no more:

Party to Save the World a raging success

Thanks to everyone who made The Party to Save the World possible. We raised a significant sum of cash for the Valentino Achak Deng Foundation to build a secondary school in Marial Bai, Sudan.

All it took was transforming a very typical Friday night of good times, good drinks and great food, into a fundraiser. Good times.

Even with the fantastic party Friday was, we do feel that we owe you a Beerluck very soon. So that, baby, that's a comin'.
