What Quad-Cities Burger Place Has A Burger ‘Not For Youngsters?’

What Quad-Cities Burger Place Has A Burger 'Not For Youngsters?'

This is a grown man burger. This burger isn’t for you youngsters. This burger takes years of experience to really appreciate. This baby is thicccck. This burger has taste and hits all the notes those youthful burgers just can’t reach. The cheese, smelty and perfect. The bun, it’s like biting into a pillow of heaven or kissing that girl at the end of the bar with a few extra curves. The meat, smashed, juicy and delicious, those ironically are the same words typed on the butt of that girl at the end of the bar. Man the late 90s were different. Where can you get this magical... Read More

What Are The Cheesiest Hit Songs Of All Time?

What Are The Cheesiest Hit Songs Of All Time?

I used up almost all my sister’s voicemail the other day. It couldn’t be avoided. There was something of vital importance I had to share with her. Taco’s “Puttin’ on the Ritz” was on the radio and the event had to be recorded for posterity. Especially the part where the robotic voice says “super duper.” You get the feeling that’s the part where the producers were trying not to cackle in Taco’s face. I’m a sick man, I know. But what afflicts me is a malady that most of us share — a love of cheesy pop songs. Not bad pop songs,... Read More

Doc Gives A Full-Throated (And Bellied) Review For Davenport’s The Half Nelson

Doc Gives A Full-Throated (And Bellied) Review For Davenport's The Half Nelson

As restaurants struggle to reinvent themselves, The Half Nelson reimagines the world around it. Walking in you’ll see a world transformed to a time when things bamboozled you. I feel completely underdressed! Maybe I should be wearing a nice suit and slick my hair back with some Dapper Dan. Whatever the case, the Half Nelson is bringing the 1920’s to the 2020’s with a little style and panache. I wish I could say that I found this time machine located in Downtown Davenport towards the end of 2nd Street. Instead, I was invited and treated by Chef Philip Pridemore. This Chef... Read More

The Time Traveler From 2714 Offers His Predictions For 2023!

It’s the end of the year as we know it, and, so far, we feel fine. But will we still feel fine in 2023??? The Time Traveler from 2714 knows! Or, well, pretends that he knows! The Time Traveler from 2714 is back on TikTok, and is back making predictions for the new year. And, despite his track record being dubious, it hasn’t stopped me, and many others, from being amused and intrigued by his b*llshit posts. As regular readers of this column know, I love reading about time travel, and the predictions of alleged time travelers. And while my all-time favorite is the legendary John Titor,... Read More

Hallmark Hell And More: An Icy Look At The Sleighload of Christmas Specials

Hallmark Hell And More: An Icy Look At The Sleighload of Christmas Specials

Here it is two days before Christmas, which means we’re almost to the end of the pestilent parade of inane Christmas specials. Every year it’s the same old story. The shows can be broken up into the usual categories: Roaming bands of has-beens, never-beens and sometime-before-the-Stone-Age-beens hit the screen to mangle the Christmas songs we know and love. “And now, I’d like to introduce a dear, dear friend of mine, Mario Lopez, who will sing `Silent Night.’ AAARRGGHHH!” Quirky, one-hour dramas have cutesy, dumb episodes about vagrants named Kris Kringle... Read More

Does Home Run Inn Pizza Hit A Grand Slam With Doc?

Does Home Run Inn Pizza Hit A Grand Slam With Doc?

Today I’m reviewing Home Run Inn Pizza, typically I’m an Totinos Party man, or even a Tombstone’r. However a few articles gave this brand an honorable mention in their rankings. So here we are. Price: These can be found right here locally in the QC, I picked these up at Jewel on Avenue of the Cities for 3 for $10. These are the personal size. While yes you could say all pizzas are personal pizzas if you try hard enough. They do carry the standard 12 inch oven pizza and more flavors for $7.99. Ease of baking: 15 minutes at 425 produced an almost perfect bake to my liking.... Read More
