We'd like to say we're going "Favre free" with this installment of our recommendations, but we can't. Sports Illustrated ruined it for us. We compensate, however, with some cool T-shirts, and tips on timeless shoes, a great song from a great Minneapolis band, some delicious soup from the South Side, yet another cool iPhone app and a Twitter account that will make you laugh.

On the town: Are you screaming for a bachelorette party?
Water Street bars like McGillicuddy's and Trinity, dance clubs like Decibel or Bootleggers and of course the token piano bar Lucille's are constantly welcoming hordes of ladies out to celebrate fleeting moments of freedom. That's essentially what a bachelorette party is. Just like the comparable bachelor party, bachelorette parties represent one final fling and a chance to do anything and everything the bride desires.
