Stout NYC

I was just recently in the city, and I was looking for a good place to eat and have a nice cold beer. I was told about a such place right under my nose on 33rd & 7th street called Stout NYC.
I walked in around noonish and was blown away by the high ceilings, old world feel and the 36' HDTV's across the bar. I was escorted to the bar, where I was given a front and back menu of the beers from across the world and the 25 different beers on tap.
When I saw they had my favorite beer and 4 different variations, I was given 4 glasses to try the different the flavors, and after I found the the one I wanted, I was poured a glass.
After putting in a order for my food, I walked around and saw the different levels and party rooms and when I walked downstairs, they had a 2 more bars, and another big room with more tv's in it. So if your a beer enthusiast, this is the place to go. Located at 133 W.33 St. (between 6th ave & 7th ave) New York, NY 10001 or you can goto thier website at http://www.stoutnyc.com/
Thanks for my friend Jo Mi for the information and you can follow her on twitter at @nitediva

Football or Degrading Women

I was recently going thru the channels and I saw some scantily clad women running around in a commercial on some music channel. The commercial was so fast that I didn't really didn't get a chance to catch it.

But after seeing the commercial again a few days later i saw it was a commercial for women's football. I have no problem with women having their own sports, but this takes the cake. Let me ask you women this is a real sport or is this degrading?

In my opinion this is just a watered version of football with women running around with hockey style helmets, bras, panties. And from what I understand the sport caters to women who couldn't further their career in such sports as track & field, volleyball, soccer, basketball and so forth.

If you like this, it's your choice, but it's not for me, tell me what you think. If you need more info on this go to: www.lflus.com
