Michael Row Your Boat...

Someone I work with sent this to me today and it just confirms that I need cut the line a row the boat ashore. Take a look.



This promo is almost 30 years old, and Save the 70's music and the awesome disco font, this my friends is what i do. I sell news, to you the viewer. This is my job. It has not changed in 30 years. It is sad. This is confirmation that the whole promo thing needs to be revamped, retooled, and made into good tv, or i should get my cardboard box, and begin looking for something else to do with my life. Seriously, nearly 30 years and we are all still trying to say the same thing.

Sad.

If I Had The Cash

I would open a good beer establishment in my neighborhood. There is not a single good place to enjoy finely brewed beverages within walking distance of my house. Every bar in this part of town has Yuengling, Bud Light, Miller light, and coors.

15 minutes from here, there are a couple of places to get a great burger and good beer on tap, but you can't walk there. With Philadelphia's obession over craft brewed, locally produced beer. You would think that there would be 1 place around here where i could get Dogfish, or PBC, or Victory on tap.

I have no idea how much it costs, but if i had the dough, i would open up a beer room/tap room sort of place and deck it out with awesome beer on tap, and some great pub fare.

Now who's gonna back me?
