http://www.theslurredword.net/2015_03_01_archive.html
A Literate Drinking Club. No Meeting Tomorrow - Please Don't Cry. I tear at my eyes, self flagellate (not the good kind), weeping. Show's cancelled tomorrow, boys. We had a few no go's and the reading wasn't cooked yet. So we'll reschedule. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). TV-less or TV-little Bars in Chicagoland. Clark Street Ale House (TVs easily ignored). Delilah's (few TVs - no sports). The Duke of Perth. The Sun Also Rises. Moneyball. The Art of Winning an Unfair Game.

The Slurred Word: A Taste of The Franklin Room
http://www.theslurredword.net/2015/02/a-taste-of-franklin-room.html
A Literate Drinking Club. A Taste of The Franklin Room. A gentle reminder that we are meeting this Friday six o'clock in the evening at The Franklin Room. A new venue! It's in a basement or garden level. Maybe it will feel like going into Cheers. I get to be Cliff. Again the reading is that short (It's short so fucking read it, Andy. You're not that busy and they have $1000 bean bag chairs in your office to facilitate this kind of intellectual pondering) piece on the nature of taste. Here it is again:.

A Literate Drinking Club. The Slurred Word on Flipboard. When Reader went dark, I started flipping. Recently, I started a TSW themed Flipboard magazine. I try to compile along the lines of "the literate drinking club" motif. Always careful to snatch any steampunk space elevator articles that relate to the coming singularity and whether or not unions are a relevant solution to America's labor issues. Also, booze.usually whiskey flavored booze. Check it:. Links to this post. A Question of Taste. For shame,...

The Slurred Word: February 2015
http://www.theslurredword.net/2015_02_01_archive.html
A Literate Drinking Club. A Guy on a Couch. I've mentioned how much I hate February. Detest is too nice a word. This time of year, besieged by snow, ice and cold, all my demons come out to poke me in the eye. It's nightmarish and I want it to end. I've found a bit of solace in listening to Marc Maron's podcast, WTF. Here's a link to the episode with Louis CK. It's fantastic: http:/ www.wtfpod.com/podcast/. Episodes/louis c.k. from 2010. I'm just guy on a couch in winter. Check out the Flipboard magazine&...

The Slurred Word: A Question of Taste
http://www.theslurredword.net/2015/01/a-question-of-taste.html
A Literate Drinking Club. A Question of Taste. Due to my Burns Night revelries, my last post was not as clear as you've come to expect. The reading for Feb 13 is the link I sent, the lecture on taste by Clement Greenberg:. Http:/ www.sharecom.ca/greenberg/taste.html. I found it here in a piece by a favorite culture columnist at Slate, Troy Patterson:. Http:/ www.slate.com/articles/life/gentleman scholar/2015/01/advice for modern men going to bars by oneself best footwear for disney.html. The Duke of Perth.

The Slurred Word: July 2014
http://www.theslurredword.net/2014_07_01_archive.html
A Literate Drinking Club. This club seems to be semi annual, a gross misconduct of leadership. Rest assured we are back on track and set to meet August 1. We will discuss two readings - a book and an essay. The book, Mr Penumbra's 24 Hour Bookstore. The essay we will discuss is Consider the Lobster. By David Foster Wallace (making his second appearance on our list). Http:/ www.gourmet.com/magazine/2000s/2004/08/consider the lobster. Links to this post. The OP Craft Beer Fest (technically still called the...
