    Greetings....

    ...from Haifa, Israel! How's everyone doing? We're STILL deployed (we haven't been out here that long, just our schedule is quite accelerated) to the Mediterranean. At least this beats being deployed to the Persian gulf...if that were the case I'd be boarding dhows all day for 7 months...

    http://www.pourjudgement.com-a.googlepages.com/ This place I go to for the beer more than anything else. The food is good and very reasonably priced but they always have several delicious beers on tap. Also, the selection of beers changes regularly with a few mainstays that are always...

    http://www.brickalley.com/ Another great restaurant/pub in Newport, RI. Overall I like this place more than the Red Parrot, but I think the wings are hotter at TRP. The wings at BAP were really good though, and decently hot for a commercial establishment. They weren't too sauce heavy but...
