Tonight at PeasantWorks Porch above Hell’s Kitchen in Canal Park. 8pm. $5.

A full evening of improv comedy for less than the cost of a movie. And we promise we’re WAY better than that Paul Blart: Mall Cop thing. How soon into that movie do you think someone rhymes his name with “fart” – 10 minutes?

We get to those type of jokes in like two minutes flat.

Okay, so it may be inappropriate and immature, but does anyone else think this picture published in today’s DNT makes it look like the Prez and the Veep are about to do some Brokeback Mountain-style smoochin’?

Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon Entry Being Auctioned off by Security Jewelers

If you or somebody you know were not selected in the lottery for the Garry Bjorklund Half Marathon, there is one more chance to obtain an entry! Security Jewelers, a dedicated Grandma’s Marathon sponsor, has graciously chosen to auction off the half marathon entry that they receive in return for sponsoring Grandma’s Marathon weekend. The auction is being held on eBay, and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to the Junior League of Duluth to assist in their efforts to restore Playfront Park, an extremely popular park located on Duluth’s waterfront and used by citizens and tourists alike.
