Snowed in? I would rather be living in Yorkshire

Just in case you spent the past ten days sequestered in a windowless bunker without wi-fi, the Louisville metropolitan area has been engaged in full ceaseless gabfest with regard to an approaching winter storm.

This is not enormously surprising to me—artificially-flavored fizzy booze products always lose their appeal after a while. — Jeff Alworth, at Beervana Then again, The Local Seltzery had a three-year run at […]
