PLAYBOY: Mistake or not, what made you decide to… - Asstastic
PLAYBOY: Mistake or not, what made you decide to go the rock-’n'-roll route? DYLAN: Carelessness. I lost my one true love. I started drinking. The first thing I know, I’m in a card game. Then I’m in a crap game. I wake up in a pool hall. Then this big Mexican lady drags me off [...]

Valentine’s Day in three pictures - Asstastic
We finished our taxes online but had to mail some supplementary forms, so we fed the googly-eyed mailbox before lunch. We walked over to Park Slope and had a giant sandwich at Bierkraft. Foreground: Defiant Porter, pulled from a cask. On the way home, we stopped at Park Delicatessen for some Valentine’s Day flowers, then [...]
It’s the last night of my 20s - Asstastic
I don’t remember how the decade started, but what a happy way to end it:
AiF: Black Bean Burgers - Oculon
Yum, nothing says hamburger like, well, taking out the ham and replacing it with the musical fruit. For me, it has the primary taste that my family used to have on their hamburgers which was not the ground beef, but a nice slathering of worcestershire and garlic salt just before going into the pan.

Oh Brooklyn, Brooklyn - Asstastic
Last night, despondent about our seemingly limited choices for property ownership, we pulled up the Craigslist site for Maine and started looking for Maine farms and Portland houses for sale. We spent maybe an hour clicking on anything that looked good and learned a lot. A good rule of thumb: if the realty company has [...]

AiF: Blackened Cajun Chicken Wrap - Oculon
I heard sad news that Baldy’s in Iowa City closed about two years ago (news travels slow out to SF). I ate many wraps there and at one point was a regular before my 9:30 M/W/F Calc II class. Nothing primes the mind for learning about integration like a heavy breakfast. Their happy hour was [...]
