Music Tuesdays - I Follow Rivers by Lykke Li
As hyped by our friend C-Mac, here is a new single by Swedish musician Lykke Li. Much like Bon Iver and Land of Talk, I am catching onto this artist at the time of their second album being released, but the songs off the first album are all pretty darn good too.
Monday Movie Review - Easy A
I normally stick to reviewing things I can imbibe, but I saw Easy A last week and I have to recommend it. In a lot of ways it reminds me of a more light-hearted Juno, which is about the highest compliment I can think of for a high school comedy.

Tech Thursday: The Economist's Babbage Blog
For reasons unknown, The Economist website is not loading for me. But that won't stop me from recommending their weekly technology column and accompanying podcast called Babbage. For fans of Tech Thursday, I would strongly recommend downloading Babbage as part of the Economist podcasts available for free on iTunes.

This week Babbage discussed 3D Printing, which I didn't know much about beforehand. Now, I think it's awesome. Check out this article and video for an example of why it's awesome. Seriously, watch that video and try to tell me that's not awesome. IT IS AWESOME.

Beer Wednesday: Rigor Mortis by Dieu de Ciel
I recently had the Rigor Mortis by Brasserie Dieu de Ciel, a French Canadian brewery, and immediately loved it. Any reader who recalls my affinity for smooth and delicious darker beers will not be surprised - Rigor Mortis is one of the smoothest and most delicious strong amber ales I've ever had. It's instantly one of my favorite beers.

Music Tuesdays - Blue Orchid by White Stripes
Since apparently the White Stripes broke up last week, I dusted off one of my random favorite White Stripes songs. Also in contention for a randomly good single is Icky Thump, but honestly the video creeped me out a little too much.
Were you a fan or not a fan of the White Stripes?
