Junior Pale Hose
600 home run hitter, Ken Griffey Jr. has been traded to the Chicago White Sox. The future Hall of Famer was acquired for a pair of prospects and could be in the Sox lineup tomorrow night. This leads to some confusion over exactly what that lineup will be. With Dye and Quentin in right and left field respectively and Jim Thome at the DH spot, Griffey would most likely have to split time with center fielder Nick Swisher and Paul Konerko, with Swisher covering first when Konerko sits. Whether relevant or not, Konerko, who is having a horrendous year, was not in tonight's game against the Twins. The Sox lost 10 - 6 after the game was delayed by douchebag Minnesotans who threw hats and balls on the field after their manager was tossed.

Best Comic Con Purchase of 2008
This ultra dope Mike Huddleston MF Doom print. I only wish I would have bought the Madlib one as well. Getting the Jim Mahfood Mixtapes was also pretty nice.

Maui Brewing Co's Coconut Porter
When you consider that Maui Brewing Company's beers are made in Hawaii and come in a can, you probably already assume they have two strikes against them, but don't be so quick to dismiss the pleasantly surprising brews. Their Big Swell proves they can pull off an IPA and the Coconut Porter is a unique kind of delicious as well. It pours the color of molasses with a fatass brown head that looks like three inches of nestles quick powder floating on top of your beer. The can gives it a little metallic tinge upfront that sort of blends with the coconut aftertaste. The main body of flavor is a silky semi-sweet espresso infused chocolate that is slightly hopped and somewhat flat. It's not as filling as your usual porter, so you can actually drink more than one at a time, and the 5.7% alcohol won't kill you either. This desserty treat is reminiscent of a somewhat exotic looking girl with thick hips that you're not quite sure is hot, but then you find out she can do that dueling banjos thing with her glutes. (B+)
