The United States is filled with a thirsty bunch of citizens.

We love our beer. We’ll partake of it in marshmallow form, deep fried or in deep-space mode.

And those thirsty six-pack, growler and keg-toting citizens are proudly loyal to their local brews. Microbreweries are popping up seemingly on every corner.  Even 7-11 is getting in on creating its own beer brand. The push for market share has folks getting creative with packaging and marketing their beers.

For those suds guzzlers anxious to drink their way across the great U.S. of A., the Houston Press has put together a map that shows one of the most popular brews associated with each state. Not every hops-and-barley beverage is a micro-brew. For example, Missouri gets a Budweiser logo based solely on the number of “the King of Beers” sold nationally.

No matter how long I gaze at that map, I’ve yet to find Springfield and Homer‘s favorite beer Duff on there.

Should you try to drink all 50 and you end up with a few you don’t like, here’s a link to other ways to use that bread in a bottle.

I’ve never had a problem eating food from a gas station.  Just two weeks ago, I ate a couple of hot dogs purchased from a gas station.  They were delicious.  That’s not the first time I’ve eaten gas station food, and I doubt it will be the last.  There’s nothing like a fun food novelty. […]

Commissioner Roger Goodell gathered 32 NFL owners for one big question.  One of the league’s most wanderlust-stricken franchises is looking to move again.  The Oakland-Los Angeles-Oakland Raiders, tired of gutting it out in a run-down stadium, were once again looking for greener pastures.  Only the Miami Dolphins refused to cooperate.  With a vote of 31-1, […]

In 2006, an injury to Dallas Cowboys starting quarterback Drew Bledsoe opened the door for an undrafted free agent by the name of Tony Romo to take the helm of America’s Team and lead the Dallas Cowboys to an early playoff exit.  Bledsoe went from starter to afterthought in a season.  Now, the circle continues […]

For 89 years, Oscars has never had a major mistake.  The last few Oscars might have had a few flubs, but at least they never got the most important category of the night wrong.  Well, that’s now changed, all thanks to OG Bonnie and Clyde legends Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway.  When Faye Dunaway called […]

Tom Brady has been wildly successful, if controversial.  He’s the first quarterback ever to win five Super Bowls and only the second player to do so after Charles Haley.  Unlike Haley, Brady won all his Super Bowls with the same team, the New England Patriots.  The only thing that seems to be able to stop […]

Ben Affleck, no matter what you might think of him, is a talented actor and director.  He’s got the goods, but he’s smart enough to know when he’s in over his head.  All along, since he took on the mantle of Batman, he’s had his eyes on writing, directing, and starring as the Caped Crusader. […]

In May, students for the for-profit American College of Education were running into some problems.  Their access to email accounts and course information was locked down by Google, who had disabled their accounts.  The reason why?  A fired IT worker for the American College of Education locked the school out of their Google cloud account.
