Once again the crazy kids in the advertising department here at Eugene Weekly are not only keeping the alternative weekly with the nation’s seventh highest penetration rate chock full of ads but taking their annual opportunity to do some “creative” writing — and we use the term “creative” very loosely, friends, very loosely indeed. Of course there is always the exception to the rule, and as in years past we were able to coax a few local freelance writers into drinking some beer and pumping out a few thousand words for you to enjoy.
Special thanks go out to Lance “The Wine Guy” Sparks and Elliot Martinez, the pride of the Whiteaker, for their editorial contributions. Also to Stacey McKay and the folks at Western Beverage for their continued support, to Chip and Dave at the Bier Stein and all the breweries and brewmasters for being such gracious and generous hosts.
