Pink Eggs, Enchiladas and Mushed Potatoes

Posted in Blogs, The Blager | Comments Off

Mashed Potatoes, Enchiladas and an Easter Egg. My head told me no, my stomach the same. But for some reason I piled on a plate of inexplicable combinations. This was the result. Next time I’ll stick to beer.

A Little Bit of Entertainment, A Little Bit of Cash

Posted in Sound & Vision | Comments Off

As I was thinking about writing a review for the new Grand Theft Auto expansion, The Lost and Damned, I realized how much it must suck to be a video game critic. What a lousy job? I didn’t buy the latest addictive incarnation of a game that hasn’t changed much since its first 3D incarnation to play it as fast as …

Preserving Historic Minneapolis

Posted in Cities, Featured | Comments Off

Minneapolis is known for its skyline. It’s the silver city, the minne-apple. Minnesota’s outsized number of major corporations have built, demolished and rebuilt the city five times over. Historic preservation has long been overlooked.

Even though Minneapolis’ Heritage Preservation Commission was formed in 1972, many “lesser” buildings have since seen the wrecking ball. Block upon block of downtown Minneapolis lies empty, full of cars by day and empty …

Journalism Doesn’t Pay…Yet

Posted in Featured, Voices | Comments Off

VOICES_journalism_srijonchowdhury2When I walked through the doors of Northrop Auditorium more than a month and a half ago, I suddenly realized I was going to have to find a job during the worst economic quagmire since the Great Depression. I was no longer a student and I was severely underemployed. This isn’t a good situation for anyone, even Carlson students, but its quite the mindfuck for …


Four Headlines About Snow

Posted in Blogs, The Blager | Comments Off

A few years back I lived in London. It doesn’t snow there, ever. Actually, once it snowed 1 inch and the city fell apart at the seams. Anywho, for some reason I decided to read The Guardian while listening to the new Lily Allen album. I have no explanation for this series of events. I did drive a possible crack addict from Kansas City, …


Summit Brewary Tour - A Few Beers Just Before Noon

Posted in Blogs, The Blager, Uncategorized | Comments Off

scottie_tuska_summit-2The Blager has been on an extended vacation from blogging, but hopes to bring you more great tidbits on beer and other happenings around the cities in the coming months. For my birthday I headed over to the Summit Brewery. I was expecting to pay a few bucks to get a shoddy and short tour and then drink some delectable local brews. Well the later two were true, but the tour …

A Triple Feature

Posted in Blogs, The Photo Album | Comments Off

The Photo Album is back for a second walk around the block. I hope you guys haven’t missed us; all three of you. This time around we have some photos that were just too good to fit into the confined space of print media. So last 1,000 years. Go read the bible print lovers. I mean it. Or look at some nifty slideshows.


The End of an Election

Posted in Blogs, The Photo Album | Comments Off

Hi, it’s your friendly neighborhood web editor. As an avid photographer I had the idea of a photo album, a place for good photography in the midst of great change. Photos that tell everyday stories and sometimes none.

For the first installment here’s a series of photographs from the last week in the election. An encounter with Al Franken and Bill Clinton’s rally for Obama and the aforementioned candidate along with some from the Nader …
