Rainier the Barbarian

Archives

I would be remiss if I didn't capture this here image from Dalton on FB for the blog, for posterity—since god knows things disappear under the waves on FB after about 8 minutes:

From Seattle Brewing:

Behold! An amazing 1976 promotional Rainier beer poster titled, “Barbarian Conquers Sasquatch.” Underneath the title is the caption "Proving once again that Mountain Fresh hath charms to sooth the savage thirst."

Artwork by Bill Stout. Bill has had a distinguished career in the comic book and fantasy art field, his most recognized work being the poster art for Monty Python's "Life of Brian" movie. This poster was part of Heckler Associates Rainier campaign in the 70’s and 80’s.

Rain and Spotified chamber music
Almost perfectly square, thin, homogeneously chewy slices of enriched white bread, extruded from a place called "Butter Farm." This was a purchase from Uwajimaya that I couldn't resist—I think mostly because this bread makes me feel like I'm saying, "Computer... two slices of bread, toasted."
Deer Hunting with Jesus. It's a little dated (2007) and written a little too much to "entertain," but I learned a lot, especially in the section on guns. Thanks for the recommendation, CBell. Definitely worthwhile.
