It been a long hot summer already and it’s just getting started! What am I to do, “suck it up baby” as my good friend would say! Well, that’s about all we can do, or is it? Maybe not, first do all the serious things like drink a lot of water, watch your kids and animals around water and DON’T leave them for a second in the car while you JUST run into that store or wherever. Remember the ground wherever you are is HOT (hello) it’s a thousand degrees out there. Everything outside is HOT be careful and think about it. I’m working on some great things for the papers, first off you can see I bit the bullet and went to FULL COLOR, I believe this will help my clients and make our papers much more attractive to our readers and potential readers. This is a good place to remind our readers AGAIN that these are YOUR papers; I expect pictures, articles, announcements, things of interest to be emailed or sent to me. I’ve always been open to everyone. When you, a friend, teammate, family member or someone special accomplishes something to be recognized let us know. Being a small independent variety newspaper we expect our community to let us know what’s happening out there. I’ve told the pool and dart leagues for years they are missing the boat with all the chicken shit politics out there by not sending me their player accomplishments, it’s not fair to your players not to give them the recognition they earned. This would not only promote your leagues and the good bars your players play out of but also our sports. We try to hard to have a variety of advertisers to bring the players and readers specials and ways to save money. We are a NEWSPAPER not a league or tournament newsletter! If you want to reach people in and OUT of the box HERE WE ARE. You want more teams, visit our advertisers and invite them to put a team together, don’t just chase each others people. I’m getting lots of attention on the “snap a crack to save bikers back” campaign. If we don’t do something about these God awful roads in Arizona we are going to lose a hell of a lot of brothers while everyone blames poor riding habits and biker error. So take a minute to “snap a crack to save a bikers back” We welcome our new advertisers and promise we will always do our best to promote and support your businesses as we have been for more than 23 years and we thank our advertiser for supporting us. Dr. Jack

Don’t have a bike? Who cares! IT’S HAPPY HOUR PRICES DURING THE BIKE WASH, come have lunch or a drink or two and make sure the girls don’t miss a spot on the bikes their washing, I’m sure you’ll be a good inspector, of the bikes right!

CACTUS CHAINSAW: As I sit here listening to the four songs on Reverbnation, with last nights show still fresh in my mind, I just can’t decide which one I like best, so I just keep listening. Over and over. Every song has me transfixed and conjures up dark images in my head. It could be “Brute Force Mentality” but I also love “Find”... You will be hypnotized… What genre of music is it? Hell if I know. Is it Blues? Metal? Southern? Hard rock? Aggro? Desert hillbilly metal? It’s dark, brutally heavy, grievous and hard to describe without using the “F-word”. I’d say their name describes them best. And their live show will entertain you til your ears bleed…okay, not really but if you’ve never seen them you’d best check ‘em out, I’ll probably see you there.

BEER FACTS OF THE MONTH Bottle caps, or “crowns,” were invented in Baltimore in 1892 by William Painter. Painter proved his invention’s worth when he convinced a local brewer to ship a few hundred cases of beer to South America and back and they returned without a leak. Beer advertising matchbook covers have become sought-after collectibles on Internet auction sites. A 1916 matchbook promoting Brehm’s Brewery in Baltimore brought $43, while a 1930s cover promoting Eastside Beer from Los Angeles went for $36.

Beer and video games have a long association. Tapper, originally a 1983 arcade game and now a computer one, tests players’ skills by challenging them to coordinate the movements of beers, a bartender, empty mugs, and patrons. An 18-year study by the National Institute on Aging found that 50-plus men who consumed a drink a day during middle age scored significantly better on cognitive tests later in life than did non-drinkers.
THE DART STARR AUGUST 2011
In ancient Babylon, women brewers also assumed the role of temple priestesses. The goddess Siris was the patron of beer. On October 17 of 1814, a rupture in a brewery tank containing 3,500 barrels of beer caused a flood of fatal proportions in the London parish of St. Giles. The wave of beer swept victims off their feet, dashed them against walls, and buried them under debris. Two houses were demolished in the sea of beer suddenly loosed upon town, and nine people lost their lives in the flood of suds.

band consisting of Tammy Zappier, Sarah Clinebell, Rusty Catana and Phil Rogers.

On Tuesday, July 26th, the TammyZ Band rocked the halftime festivities for the Phoenix Mercury vs. Seattle Storm game. Their performance was part of the ongoing Battle of the Bands being promoted by local promoting group, Chicks with Picks. While the band’s set was short and sweet by consisting of only two songs, it certainly did not lack on great musical ability! The band started off their set with a cover by 60’s rock group, Creedence Clearwater Revival, and then… -Butch Maloney
