I had a dream I was in a tsunami last night.
Getting this bottle was a victory of Tumblr, email, texting, and friendship. Sorry everyone else in Brooklyn.

I guess I am not in principle opposed to “cocktails that change from one drink to another while you are drinking them,” but if you really wanted to dazzle me I would like a Manhattan that turns into another Manhattan just as I am about finished with the first. (here)
This photo gallery created by my Rolling Stone colleague John Gara depicting rock stars as characters from Harry Potter is, for lack of a better word, entirely magical.
Eddie Vedder would be such an annoying wizard. But this really is fantastic.
Pierce kept a low a profile at the tournament, or as low as a 6-foot-7 former NBA champion can. He had a hoodie pulled up over his headphones and wore a hat that included his number, hometown and team logo.
- I guess? Apparently he’s doing quite well.

““In the summer of 2010, everything went kind of crazy,” said John Butler, a 2011 graduate of PC and last year’s sports editor for The Cowl, the student newspaper. In addition to the dismissal of Peterson, “two of our players were dismissed due to an off-campus incident where they beat up a student. We lost one of our assistant coaches, Pat Skerry [named head coach at Towson College]. It was a bad, bad summer.”
Between Curry and Peterson, there weren’t that many attempts left over for Brooks as a junior, though he still put up 14 points per game on 11.6 attempts. But all of a sudden, a gap needed to be filled.

A day or two before my 29th birthday, I thought “Maybe I should do something for the next year.” I threw that question out on Twitter, and one guy said, “Why don’t you run and drink beer every day for the next year.” That sounded reasonable at the time. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. Two hundred and sixty days later, here I am.

If I were a member of the Boston Bruins, I’d have a replica of the Stanley Cup built (as close to the real one as possible, with the names engraved and everything) and then I’d take it everywhere I went FOR LIFE.

Negative Noah’s Non-Football Lock of the Week (1-0) Rory McIlory to win The 2011 Masters (20/1) or the Open Championship (20/1)
I plan to keep up my undefeated record by picking events that won’t happen until long after we’ve grown tired of this weekly email. Considering last week’s came three days late, I can’t imagine we’re that far away. Anyway… McIlory is going to win one of these two tournaments. Hedge and bet him to take the No. 1 spot in both. He finished third at last year’s Open despite shooting an 80 in the second round. Inspired stuff from the 21 year old. He turned in a 62 to shatter (shatter!) the course record at the Quail Hollow Championship. He did something important during the Ryder Cup. He will, eventually, win you a lot of money. Patience is a virtue.
