While I might not actually be Wolf Blitzer, I have it on good authority that Wolf Blitzer will be having the Weekend of his Life this weekend, just as only a man named “Wolf” can. I’m not sure why Wolf Blitzer is on the brain, but we have to trust the process and welcome the unconscious into our relationship. How else are we going to make any progress here? I need to be able to bring up Wolf Blitzer whenever I want, without judgment, and I need you guys to have my back. I know next to nothing about Wolf Blitzer, and I don’t want to know anything about Wolf Blitzer. That’s not the point. The point is, it’s the weekend. Today’s headlines are better than coffee… rich with antioxidants, caffeine, and a delicious, rich flavor. There’s no escaping it. Today’s headlines will get you out the door and dehydrate you. Topics today include vaccination cards, gay bars in Wisconsin, utopic Oregon, queer-owned businesses in Chicago, and deals on JetBlue. Fasten your seatbelts, but just know… it’s going to be the smoothest ride of your life. I’ll miss you this weekend, but please know that I am with you always, and that we will continue where we left off on Tuesday. That’s all we have time for today. I have to go Google if vodka on the rocks is good for a lingering stuffy nose. This is the best summer of our lives. Right? All my very best, -[Ned Riseley, Newsletter Contributor]( [ [( food & drink [] [Vaccine Cards Are The Golden Ticket For Certain Bars and Clubs]( Not really. You just need one to get into certain bars and restaurants. And in some joints, it may even score you a free Brandy Alexander. That’s just an idea. You don’t have to get a Brandy Alexander. In fact, this article never even mentions them. But you could get a free drink, is the point, and what could be better than that? I’ll see you at the bar. But please, just promise me we don’t have to talk about the vaccine. Let’s just move on.

And I can’t think of a clearer name for a bar. So, if it is indeed the Cheers of Milwaukee, who are you? Ted Danson? Kirstie Alley? Woody Harrelson? Keep in mind, I’ve never seen Cheers.
