Stasiu's re-opening??
Based on a little message board dribble I ran across last night (so take it for what it’s worth), I hear that the NE bar Stasiu’s may be setting up for a little revival. It has sat empty since last September when their owner was found dead in a hot tub. The rumor I read said that it has been purchased and they knew a bit about what was going on, but weren’t going...

Charlie Davies can't be human
I had this passed on to me by a friend. For those of you who don’t know Charlie Davies is a striker for the U.S. national team (soccer) who was in a horrible accident in October, in which one woman died. He suffered broken right femur and tibia, a broken left elbow, facial fractures and a lacerated bladder.
The prognosis was that he would face an arduous six- to 12-month recovery and...

Dessa CD Release Party at Fine Line Music Café on...
The review from How Was The Show, go read the whole thing, I can’t even come close to doing it any justice.
“And then there she was, dressed in a black with a rose in her hair, striding elegantly onto stage with a band that included, among others, MK Larada. The first song Dessa played was “Dixon’s Girl,” the single off Code that sounds more cabaret than hip hop. She was in songstress...

Jim Thome 2010
mightyflynn:
This morning at Sox Fest, Ozzie Guillen said the White Sox have until tomorrow to decide if they will bring Jim Thome back. The question seems to be whether the Sox can guarantee Big Jim enough at-bats this season to make it a fair situation for the slugger. If the Sox don’t bring him back, Ozzie said, Thome will sign with the Minnesota Twins.
I’m not quite sure I want him...

The Anchor Fish & Chips
I drive by this place almost every day on my way home from work and I have been meaning to get here for a while. I know a few friends of mine will be pissed I went without them actually (sorry cal). That’s cool though, cause I will definitely be going back.
First off this place is still crazy busy, so if you’re going to try it out be prepared to wait 30min - 1hr to get a table. I...
Twins plan bullshit random drawing for tickets

Maybe I’m missing something but as a season ticket holder this right here pisses me off. Five of my friends and I have a group of 20 game packages, in which we don’t have tickets to the opening game. In the past we’ve had the opportunity to purchase tickets before the general public for that game and the rest of the season, not this year (when it really matters)....
