PMH Douche of the Week: Joseph Condorelli, Grenade Gloves CEO

Long story short (good read though, amusing how this ‘CEO’ handles himself – seriously, read it):  photographer Chris Messervey snaps photos on a trip, Grenade uses a photo on a website, photog gets no credit/pay for his work.  Did the photog mess up by not sending watermarked images to Dustin Craven?  For sure, and it [...]

One out of one crayons agree

It’s hot in Portland. If ol’ red had only made it another ten feet he’d been able to enjoy a beer and the AC in Hopworks.

So it’s been awhile since I’ve paid homage to beer.  Not for lack of drinking it as my growing gynecomastia (aka bitchtits) will attest to.  Let’s turn these non-beer blogging Fridays around. First up, the Invasive Species IPA from one of my new favorite breweries Captured by Porches out of St. Helens, OR (I mean [...]

PMH douche of the week: Michael J. Vandeman

It’s been awhile since we’ve given out a Douchie, our version of the Grammy, here at Poormansheli, but when I came across the below this morning I knew this guy was a lock for a weekly award, and most likely lifetime achievement.
