I remember it being called Steilacoom Pub and Deli from my days of living in Lego Land — oops, I mean DuPont. Not only is Steilacoom one of the most beautiful and historic cities bordering a waste treatment plant, but it is also THE place to go for beer selection,

The first time I met David and his bandmates was last year at the first ever Point Defiance Music Festival where 2112: A Tribute to RUSH was playing on the Weekly Volcano stage. With all of us together, beers were downed inside their white van and memories were had as

Once again the Top of Tacoma will be the epicenter of local happy hour festivities. Leave it to owner Jaime Kay Newton to give back to the community that has supported her sociable neighborhood bar for so long now. Top of Tacoma and Project:U, a young and hip offspring of United

The TacomaGnome is a blogging online entity and a force to be reckoned with. I usually find his Norwegian-influenced interviews to be nothing less than cleverly thought out and insurmountably hilarious.

Damn Judy Blume suckered me in at an early age with Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing and Superfudge. Next thing you know I’m hiding underneath the covers, secretly reading Forever by flashlight. The kids totally “do it” in that book. I think I can blame her version of teenage

I never would’ve known that anything cool existed south of 512 on Canyon Road if Matt Driscoll had bathed that day. While the Weekly Volcano offices reeked a foul combination of baby poop and sweaty socks, I headed out for cold beers and meaty sandwiches at Summit Pub. One of

Not all the feisty yarn whores were in attendance, but I did manage to catch the craziest of the crazy at their weekly bitch-n-stitch last Sunday. I can’t tell you at what secret location I met up with The Feisty Knitters, for fear they’d stab me in the throat with

I’ve had to deal with some incredibly high-maintenance females lately, so I decided this week I’d hang out with a few non-hormonal men for my Bar Exam. I invited three drama-free dudes to meet me at Spud’s Pizza Parlor for lunch, and they happily obliged. Since I had downed an

There are three women who own Urban Gourmet on Sixth Avenue in Tacoma. The lucky one who was on the clock during my last visit was Terry Wong. She’s never had a problem chatting it up with me when I’ve dropped in before, but wouldn’t you know as soon as
