DIVE IN: Green Pup

When the important question begs, “Where’d you get your body from?” the most obvious, and of course intellectual, answer would be, “Got it from my mama!” Trust me. I know this because Will I Am told me (very loudly) as I entered the door’s of Lakewood’s Green Pup Sports Bar

TROUBLE WITH DEROSA: James Wellings

You’re not going to believe this, but I met James Wellings in a bar. Shocking, right? It’s hard to avoid the downtown Olympia crowd as I stroll down Fourth Avenue, the best street located in this state’s capitol city. Eventually I run into the same faces at each venue I

DIVE IN: The Chieftain Totem Room

They say that beer is the breakfast of champions. If that’s the case, then give me a gold medal and slap my picture on a box of Wheaties, because I rocked both breakfast AND beer at The Chieftain on South Tacoma Way. A reader board that I’m sure hasn’t been

Does Tacoma have talent?

Apparently word has gotten out about how much talent is all up in the South Puget Sound. Rumor has it we have great live music, talented performers, and one helluva attitude to back it up. As I walk down the street, I see talent gushing out of every open crack

Chopsticks Noodle House

Recent Trouble with DeRosa victim Daniel Furrer from Archibald Sisters in Olympia had given me a heads-up about the spiciness of Chopsticks Noodle House’s dishes. Thrilled, off I went.   There were three items on the menu with a picture of a cute little red chili next to the names. This was

TROUBLE WITH DEROSA: Captain Johnathan

With a husky voice that told a story within itself of heavy smoking, all-night fishing, and hardcore crabbing survival — Captain Johnathan Hillstrand of the Discovery Channel’s show Deadliest Catch made my dream come true. With the show’s fifth season beginning this past Tuesday, he called my cell phone and

DIVE IN: Eastside Club Tavern

Still owned by its original founding family, the Eastside Club Tavern has been an Olympia staple since 1942.  I instantly felt the warmth of wooden bar comfort as I planted my bum close to the tavern’s cute, friendly bartenders. This place reminds me of what a true tavern should be,

Tacoma Cult Film Club

Much like the critically acclaimed show Mystery Science Theater 3000, which openly ridiculed mediocre science-fantasy movies from 1988 to 1999, the newly formed Tacoma Cult Film Club will honor only the best B-movies one beat-up VCR can handle. Only this time you’re not alone on your Dorito-stained futon laughing at

TROUBLE WITH DEROSA: Sam Miller

My new friend Sam — the doorman at McCoy’s Tavern in Olympia — is definitely no one’s doormat, ifyaknowwhatImean. His entertaining abrasiveness, witty sarcasm, and gargantuous stature made Bandito Betty and I immediately welcome him into our warped world of sideshow humor. It all started as we made eyes with
