    A few weeks ago, I mentioned the banning of bake sales at a school in California. The fundraising fare was criminalized on the basis of fat, calorie and sugar content, enemies in the war against childhood obesity.

What they don’t know will hurt them.

  • What happens in West Chester stays in West Chester. Except for this part.

    I didn’t have all that many beers during roughly four hours spent at Iron Hill’s Belgium Comes to West Chester yesterday,having learned my lesson from last year’s embarrassing performance and, in the same spirit, I stayed with relatively low ABV brews to boot. Yeah, I’m not a Fun Guy all the time.
