Pucker Sour Apple Vodka

Pucker has been a mainstay of a great many college parties over the course of the time that I’ve been floating around college campuses, and I have no doubt in my mind that this will continue. However, Pucker has released a set of vodkas that look to update the brand’s image in 2011. We received a bottle of the Pucker Sour Apple Vodka, which will go head to head with…

Jungle Rot – Kill on Command (CD)

Jungle Rot is one of those bands that has been bubbling under the radar for the better part of two decades, and their hard work has been paid off with their 2011 signing to Victory Records. Far from appeasing their new label, “Kill on Command” builds off of a great many of the sounds and styles that were first brought fans during 1997’s Slaughter the Weak and 2004’s Fueled By…

You Won’t Miss Me (DVD)

This film is interesting. This is due to the fact that the drama created by Stella Schnabel speaks to the human condition and does not attempt to glamorize human interactions in any way. By doing this, ey comes forth with a film that looks at the human condition – everyone, no matter where they live or whom they identify with – will be able to feel what is happening to…

U’luvka Vodka is one of the few that will immediately have people take notice – the unique shape of the bottle will be what first brings fans in. The kink on the neck of the bottle showcases how U’luvka differs…

Natural Calm (Sleep)

There are a number of distinct supplements on the market that attempt to ensure the most fulfilling and refreshing sleep that an individual can have. At some point, they all succeed in providing a more efficacious alternative to the Benadryl-based pills. This is due to the fact that they do not saddle individuals with the same sort of long-lasting funk that is present with the Benadryl-based brands. There are four…

Captain Morgan Private Stock (80 Proof)

I understand that there are rums on the market that will set one back a pretty penny, but I find that most of the selection that is present at a local liquor store is limited to the under-$50 bracket. It becomes much more of a chore to figure out which of these rums are worth trying, and when it makes more sense to just go cheap. We were able to…

Perpetual Peace (DVD)

Peace is an interesting concept. Despite being a nation that prides itself on peace, the United States has gotten in to a tremendous amount of war. The idea of peace is something that is poorly defined; this is why the Perpetual Peace Project has gotten together to create this DVD. By trying to tease out what peace means, both in terms to individuals as well as in a philosophical sense,…
