Mutineer Magazine: WinePlusMusic.com article.


Check out my article in this month's issue of Mutineer Magazine. I wrote about wineplusmusic.com and also had a nice little profile of myself in the beginning. Find it at Barnes and Noble if you live in Rochester. there's no link to it, because it's completely in print and not online (aren't I a fancy boy). Look for an article about Sailor Jerry Rum in the next issue.

TheFatherLife.com: MakeItPro.com: Interview with Jill Osur and Greg Wilfahrt.


Social networking sites like Facebook and MySpace are an extremely popular way for people to connect whether for social reasons or for networking. Makeitpro.com is in the vein of popular social networking sites, but it has much different uses than it’s mainstream cousins.

TheFatherLife.com: NHL Season Preview.


A new season is upon us, but it feels like it was only a few weeks ago when Sid the Kid and the Pittsburgh Penguins pulled the ‘ol switcheroo and beat Niklas Lidstrom and the Detroit Red Wings 4-3 a year after losing 4-2 to the same squad. Evgeni Malkin was the MVP of the Finals as well as the playoffs as a whole. Max Talbot scored the only two goals in game seven, and Marc-Andre Fleury only allowed one goal to secure the clinching game.

But four plus months have passed since the Penguins triumphantly raised the cup. With the drop of the puck last week, the ’09-’10 season has begun, a season full of hope as well as dreams of Stanley Cup glory for all thirty teams. Right now, every team is still in playoff contention as far as I know.

TheFatherLife.com: Osburn On Tap: Pumpkins Aren't Just For Pie.


I’ve delayed this article for a long time. Some years ago, I promised myself that I wouldn’t write an article about Pumpkin Ales for thefatherlife. My reasoning was because I always felt that a Halloween themed article about beer brewed with flavors of this gourd-like squash was a little bit cliché. It seems like every other beer writer in America is or has written a Pumpkin Ale themed article for Halloween. Well, after some serious deliberation, I’ve changed my mind and have decided that the world needs to know more about this seemingly strange fall brew.

TheFatherLife.com: Q&A with Oakland A's outfielder Ryan Sweeney.


In 2009, just his second full season in Major League Baseball, Oakland Athletics outfielder Ryan Sweeney finished second on the team with a .293 batting average while hitting six home runs, recording 58 RBI’s and stealing six bags. He was a human highlight reel, collecting many a web gem and leaving numerous batters gap-jawed as he robbed them of potential home runs while patrolling spacious right field at McAfee Coliseum.

Just like former NBA MVP Steve Nash, Vikings receiver Bernard Berrian and NBA baller Hasheem Thabeet, Sweeney is involved with the sports social networking site makeitpro.com. I recenty had a chance to chat with Ryan about the site, his days off and what other professional sports he’d like to try out...
