    Brew & View continues this Sunday night at 8 p.m. with Snatch, a film by that English guy, Guy Ritchie.

    Snatch poses a very important question: Where is the stone? A family film, complete with a cute little dog, that’s got a little bit of everything. Lil bit of diamond heisting gone awry, lil bit of bare- knuckle boxing, lil bit of an unpredictable Irish gypsy (Brad Pitt) and a lotta bit of said dog who likes swallowing all sorts of shit he shouldn’t. Double-crossing, double-bluffing and double-dealing abound as various parties pursue personal agendas-all of them illegal, some of them farcical and most of them involving an 86-carat diamond. Eventually, things fall apart, the center cannot hold yada yada yada. The question is – who will emerge with the stone?

    No no no, that’s not it. The question is what the *#!%  are the gypsies saying. That’s the real question here.

     

    Drink specials:

    – 15 kuai bottles of Guinness (thank sweet baby Jesus)

    – 10 kuai shots of Jameson and scotch

    And, naturally, 15 kuai off pizzas. See you there, mates.

    Thats a sweet idea, Charlie.  Were also playing around with the idea of a royal flip cup tournament post-viewing, the winners taking the flip cup throne for a week.. Haven’t asked Hise about this though. that long table of his is ideal, don’t know how excited he is about the prospect of a beer laden table afterwards though, as inevitably happens with these things.

    Chengdu is suspiciously lacking in Renaissance era duds. That being said, if you do manage to string together a costume, you’ll be the sole individual with a claim to the throne, and we shall all rally to your side with our disheveled house banners and bathe you in rum and ale and free popcorn. We were talking about having a costume night but, seriously, it’s effing hard finding clothes like that. You could come naked and say you’re a worker at Little Fingers brothel. Or just come hungover with blue contacts and say you’re a white walker.  In the latter case though, your communication would be restricted to screeches and moans, but the esteem of your peers would be boundless.

    Last night was a lot of fun, thanks to all who came out. This morning I found another amazing resource for following GoT. An interactive mothereffing map of Westeros. You can follow character paths, progress by chapter if you’re a book reader or episode if you’re a series watcher, and there’s a clever spoiler preventer that prevents you from inadvertently coming upon information you shouldn’t, depending on how far you’ve read or seen.

    Yeah, Simeon. episodes 2 and 3. If you happen to have a VPN though, a simple googling of “watch game of thrones online” will give you decent quality, provided you have a good connection.

    Alternatively, here are some handy websites to gander at:

    I personally enjoy figuring that out as a series progresses, but we have plenty of knowledgeable individuals who would be glad to give you the lowdown on character motives, current plot arcs, past plot arcs, which character really loves eating chickens, which prefers a nice juicy rack of human thigh, and so on. Just make sure to get there a bit early to ask, or do it between episodes. The plot is understandably difficult to follow at times.

    Big fan of this. I try to make it over when I can, but as I usually work all day Thursday and really fucking early Friday, I only am able to attend intermittently. But Charlie, really dig your sets, as well as the other guy’s. Didn’t know you got down like that. Hope you fellows keep it up, might be difficult judging by the usually slim number of patrons on Thursday, but as for now, it’s the most chill place in my opinion to be Thursday nights.

    Typing on the iPad, as is plainly evident, is also a pain.

    The flop news is surprising, most of the reviews I’ve digested have it almost on par with the iPad, and if you plan on doing more word processing and actual work then a lot of websites rank it higher than the iPad. Good news for those who still plan on buying it.

    Might wander down there tomorrow. Don’t know what time yet though. Probably going to channel my inner Dwight Howard and be indecisive as a motherfucker. I’ll throw a post up on here if and when we go.
