Here Comes the Pun

I'm Chris. I live in Brooklyn. I like craft beer, geography, travel, hiking, biking, news media, and a lot of random things that are mostly of little or no consequence.

To get by, I work in advertising. I also host craft beer tastings.

I write about Rhode Island a lot, too, because I grew up there.

Elsewhere:
I have a blog about craft beer and homebrewing in New York City. I also have a less-often updated blog about transportation policy.

For those looking for other means of getting to know me, there's my original blog, my personal Twitter, my beer Twitter, Facebook, or e-mail at brewyorknewyork (at) gmail dot com.

New York’s new anti-sugar drink ads

Mmm, bacon juice!

I realize that this kind of thing is well-intentioned and it’s what the Department of Health & Mental Hygiene should be doing, but maybe the government of New York ought to be more concerned with an egotistical mayor subverting its own laws in an unconstitutional manner so he can run for a third term? Or fix the MTA so that the G train comes more than once every thirty minutes during rush hour?

But yes, drink less soda. It’s bad for your kidneys. Even the diet stuff.

Um, the money that could be saved on health care costs if New Yorkers eased off the soda (diabetes, childhood obesity, heart disease) could pay for the G train to run every single minute of every single day.

And Mark, what are you, a NYPost.com commenter? They find a way to take any news story about anything that happens in New York - positive or negative - and tie it back to why Bloomberg sucks. (Also, the City Council didn’t have to approve the change in term limits, so they’re equally responsible for that.)
