Side note: When we lived in South Dakota, we drove through the tiny town of Henry, SD every time we came home to visit. And every time, to Mrs. Frosti's chagrin, I would sing "Henry the VIIIth" at the top of my lungs. It may be one of the main reasons we left South Dakota.
Price: $15.99 Company: Old Overholt Type: Whiskey Style: Rye Size: 750 ML
87 PTS WINE ENTHUSIAST. Powerful, balance of brown spice notes and delicate fruit with nice smooth finish
Only I didn't notice the nice smooth finish so much. Uh, hazy memories of "Daydream Believer". Why am I laughing if I can't remember what the lyrics are?
Shrek?...wow...we have watched that and IceAge...and Monsters Inc, non stop for the past few months. My 3.999 yr old loves Shrek. Especially the "Shreks Dance Party" at the end.
I turned 40 a few years back...and the day I turned 40 I could only drink half as much to avoid a hangover. It was a strange and "sad" thing...I have adjusted and have avoided "feeling like shit the next day" for the most part.
I don't count on that happening on 27 Sep...day after the Oktoberfest trip. You guys (gals) would be disappointed in me if that happened no doubt.
Well, it's Monday now, and I feel good. If I would not have had plans on Saturday, I would have laid on the couch all day. Sunday, I was still tired and was in bed by 9, which is quite early for me.
Yes, I would think the Oktoberfest trip would be an exception to the hangover-avoidance rule, moe.
The Jukebox really does make the bar.
I like the cowbell theory. I'd never have thought of it in a million years, but it's true.
He forgot "Henry the VIIIth" though. What would Ralph's have been without that song? And the Old Overholt, of course.

Old Overholt
You mean the Old Overshoe, right? And what about the alternate lyrics to "Daydream Believer"??

Cheer up sleepy (insert name of someone at the table)
oh what can it mean,
to a wet dream believer
and a slow cumming queen!
but I was probably sleeping. :)
Pitcher of Schmidt Dark, anyone?
No thanks...having Sierra Nevada Pale Ale in a bottle right now.
I guess the sun is past the yard-arm somewhere in the world... :)
The pale ale I brewed ended up not tasting like a pale ale at all. It hardly had any hop flavor. Very disappointing.
See what happens when I'm not there to jog your arm while you're pouring out the hops?
(okay, they're pre-measured. :p)
Any ideas what went wrong?
I'm wondering if the extended time in the fermenter had an adverse effect. I guess I needed you to jiggle my brain to get me to bottle the stuff.
Sparky...Germany time!
Is that one of those complicated time signatures? I don't recognize it...
6 hours ahead of the U.S. East Coast. (Central European Time)
Watching the NFL is tough...Monday Night Football at 0300 Tuesday Morning.
Thank you Frosti. You're nearly as good as Smackie for inflicting earworms.
<sings softly to herself: Cheer up sleepy...>
My kids have been really into Shrek lately, so I've constantly got another Monkees tune in my head, "I'm a believer"
"You're going the right way for a smacked bottom!"
That's actually one of my fav movies that C watches over and over. And over and over and over, etc.
Right now we seem stuck on Beauty and the Beast.
"You may have seen a housefly. You may have even seen a Superfly. But you ain't never seen a Donkey fly!"
I can take or leave B & the B. But I do enjoy the Gaston song. I'm especially good at expectorating!
I don't like B&B at all.
I really like Shrek.
Oddly enough, I heard "I'm a Believer" on the car radio while driving home this evening.
Some ass in litchat has me singing The Gambler.
Well, they're actually very nice. But It Must Go, Now.
On a warm summer's eve,
on a train bound for nowhere...
we was both too tired to sleep
Hee! Kenny Rogers. Thanks for that little trip to naustalgia lane.
I realized after I shut down last night, but I also heard on the radio that it was Kenny Rogers' 65th birthday yesterday. Happy birthday Gambler!
Shrek?...wow...we have watched that and IceAge...and Monsters Inc, non stop for the past few months. My 3.999 yr old loves Shrek. Especially the "Shreks Dance Party" at the end.
Shrek is one that I don't mind watching over and over. Donkey gets me laughing every time.
We also have IceAge and Monsters Inc, but I prefer Shrek.
My 4 year old is all about princesses so IceAge and Monsters Inc just don't do it for her.
On-Topic: The Marine House Happy Hour is tonight, and it's my birthday, so I expect to drink quite a lot of beer.
Holy Shit!
Happy Birthday Ami!
Oh. Wow.
Thanks Frosti.
I'm leaving work in about 10 minutes to go to a happy hour. I'll be sure to have a few in your honor...
You're too kind.
I assure you, it's no trouble.
No no, really. I'd hate to put you out.
No no, really. I'd hate to put you out.
I read this as "No no, really. I'd hate to put out." Gotta drink.
You should have read enough of S&S to know that's not the case.
I know.
Drank waaaaay to much last night. Worst hangover I can recall.
Knowing what I do of your history, that's - frankly speaking - horribly frightening.
Well, keep in mind that I'm 10 years older now, and I drink far less now, so the hangovers are much more fearful than they used to be.
Rough one huh? How many days did you feel it?
I turned 40 a few years back...and the day I turned 40 I could only drink half as much to avoid a hangover. It was a strange and "sad" thing...I have adjusted and have avoided "feeling like shit the next day" for the most part.

Welcome back Frosti...ready for a cold one? I am.
I got this Edelsfelder Pilsner going for me right now.
ready for a cold one?
Not sure. I'm at work right now, so maybe...
An eidelwhat?
This no sugars for 2 weeks thing is okay, except for not being able to have a beer once in a while. Grr.
"An eidelwhat?"
A Pilsner beer made in this village I live in...called Edelsfeld.
Map of Germany...north of Amberg about 22 km, east of Nurnberg about 60 km.
Population 212...and that is after we move in last April.
What are you doing in Germany, Moe. If I may ask.
Teaching U.S. Military soldiers/contractors/Local Nationals how to ship Hazardous Materials, safely and legally.
Just a temp assignment...a few years probably...then back to good ol' U.S. of A.
I love the beer/culture here...but hate the time zone thing...waking up at 0300 Tuesday morning to watch Monday Night Football stinks.
Especially with no Dennis Miller.

burp.
