Festivals
In the beginning there were…apples: Apple Festival
Lock and load, kids, because today (right now) we’re all going to learn about the history of the esteemed apple. Why would we devote valuable breathing time of our life on earth to such a seemingly innocuous topic? Welp…the 2008 Apple Festival is coming to the Peddler’s Village November 1-2, 2008. This traditional fall celebration [...]
I’ll trade you my Xbox for a potato pancake: Lithuanian Street Fair
I’m sure that all readers of this publication are intimately familiar with the history of Lithuania BUT…here’s a quick re-cap in case you didn’t graduate from high school yesterday or can’t name a country on the southeastern shore of the Baltic Sea. Why am I going to all this trouble? Because the 30th Annual Lithuanian [...]
It ain’t the Mystery Machine: Flower Power Music Festival
More power to the flowers! More power to the flowers! Or something like that. Sorry, it was the best I could do at the time.

Get a new line! But whatever happened to focusing on what really matters – like singing in front of a large group [...]
Anyone with a man crush on Bruce Campbell? Anyone? Terror Film Festival
Are you one of the five people who actually saw Grindhouse in the theater? You like splatter and gore – what the mediarazzi refer to as ‘genre’ films. Hell yes, you like ‘em! Nothing’s better than a wet behind the ears Bruce Campbell getting his ass kicked from one side of the cabin to the [...]

I don’t know about you, but I don’t mind drinking my beer from a two ounce mug, especially when I’m hanging out at the Newton Brewfest on Saturday, October 18, 2008, from 12 PM to 5:30 PM, in the parking lot of the Newton Stocking Works Complex.
Fear not if you’re in Philadelphia and have never [...]
Happiness is warm lederhosen: Oktoberfest At World Café Live
Has anyone looked at the calendar lately? I believe it just might be…maybe…about time to…break out the lederhosen because we all have a closet full of that. Don’t we? No? Am I the only one? Oh my, this is awkward. Let’s just move on and never speak of this again.
The month of October can only [...]
