Filed under: News — Ryan J. Allen @ 8:37 I recently had the pleasure of bringing my brother suit shopping. It hadn’t occurred to me how much some people don’t know about buying a suit. Here’s a brief guide of things to look for to put yourself a nice looking suit, in case you didn’t know.

Filed under: Ryan Allen Endorses — Ryan J. Allen @ 15:26 When I was with Katy in London I would point out the Starbucks that was visible from every entrance to the Tube. When Evan, Matt, Kevin, and I are in Prague we would “Czech In” every morning to Starbucks in Wenceslas Square. Last winter Adam, Eric, and I would enjoy the occasional 7 a.m. Starbucks trip before work. I visited Jill many times at Starbucks, even sharing her excitement in having some of her photos on display there. A photo of Tiffany is on display in the very Starbucks that she so happily works at. Muis, Foran, Gilles, Misha, Gervais, Joel, and I will relieve our minds from the grip of work with the occasional trip to the Starbucks a mere 300 metres walk from the office. My first apartment was right over a Starbucks in Kingston.

Filed under: News — Ryan J. Allen @ 11:31 I enjoy a good beverage from Starbucks. In fact, I am planning on enjoying a good beverage from Starbucks in the next hour or two with some close friends. While I think about what I might have, I wanted to share some of my favourite drinks. I’d love to hear about your favourite drinks [...]

Filed under: Germany, News — Ryan J. Allen @ 18:52 Have you noticed that I haven’t written much lately? I promise that it’s not due to a lack of things to write about, nor is it due to a lack of time to write–I just don’t want to. I don’t want to write about the thing that I would have to write about: leaving [...]

Filed under: Germany, News — Ryan J. Allen @ 13:21 Germany, I would like you to meet Pumpkin Pie.
That was the theme of a small dinner I hosted yesterday. After many months of talking about it I finally put my words into action and I made a pumpkin pie. I admit to doing so using a can of pumpkin mix, but think that’s [...]

Filed under: News — Ryan J. Allen @ 8:57 Anytime I buy a Bio product I feel defeated. I feel like I have just paid for air. It happens rarely–very rarely–but it still happens. I usually have a very objective reason for buying a Bio product other than the reasons a Hippie might buy it (if a Hippie had any money, man) but [...]

Filed under: Germany, News — Ryan J. Allen @ 17:40 A couple of months ago I wrote to you about my reaching the mid-point of my year here in Germany; now, I have but four months left. Time is going by rather quickly.
The past two months have been incredible. I have been blessed with visits from some of my dearest friends. First, I [...]

Filed under: Germany, News — Ryan J. Allen @ 22:06 Dear Internet:
I need your advise. Nine Inch Nails is touring Europe this summer and it the so-called “final tour”; at the very least, it should be the last tour NIN will do for a while. So I would like to see them.
Luckily, Europe is relatively small so I have a few options. [...]
