On Sunday we will officially hit the first day of fall, which can only mean one thing. It’s time to pumpkin ALL the things, including beer. This past Wednesday I went to Queen of the Pumpkin Ales at Hearthstone Coffee House and Pub, hosted by Girls’ Pint Out, and tried four varieties

Like every other American, I woke up this morning with no need to check the calendar. I knew what today was and what it meant. Our world will never be the same. 12 years ago, we turned a corner and there’s no going back. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t any good

It’s fall, which means its time for Apple to announce the new iPhone. Following their established pattern, this year is the year for the iPhone 5s. About midsummer or so, advertisements from Apple have focused on how they perfect their devices. First time I saw the ad below I leaned over to

Confession: Comic books have never been something that I’ve really gotten into. I had a few Supergirl, Spider-Girl, and Wonder Woman comics in high school, but that was about it. They were fun, but they really didn’t do anything for me. Recently, though, I’ve had the desire to try again. I’ve become
