For Sparky: DOGFISH HEAD DECLARES HIGH ALCOHOL VICTORY Dogfish Head Brewery in Delaware says it has brewed Raison C'est Fini, a beer that can best be described as "all alcohol, all hops, all the time." In an April 1 press release, Dogfish Head stated: "Declaring his brewery the final winner in the ongoing competition with Boston Beer Company (Samuel Adams) to brew the world's strongest beer, Dogfish Head founder, CEO and former Hagar Slacks model Sam Calagione announced today the release of Raison C'est Fini, a 100% abv brew which is also 'hopped continuously with a blend of every hop variety grown on every continent in the world during the year 2003, plus some stuff that looks an awful lot like hops which I found out behind our Milton brewery.' Boston Beer's Jim Koch was not available for comment. Some reports have him retiring in disgrace to Costa Rica."
(dude, the article as posted has no date. it mentions hops grown in 2003, but I thought it was using last years crop, maybe this years wasn't ready yet...)
Okay, doesn't really have much to do with beer, except the guys involved like to drink it - and probably will have to have a few to prepare for the planned act.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Heavy social drinkers show a pattern of brain damage similar to that seen in hospitalized alcoholics -- enough to impair day-to-day functioning, U.S. researchers said on Wednesday.
While your English is not exactly perfect, you are still more grammatically correct than just about every American. Still, there is always room for improvement...
Hunh. I always thought it more about being misunderstood, but just went through the lyrics again - and it do seem a little mean spirited. He's poking at the pretensions of those who throw stones and live in glass houses, I think.
My daughter's fish has died. It was floating in the tank when we got up this morning. Both kids noticed it, but didn't understand the ramifications. They were too slow getting dressed, so they didn't get to dwell on it too long. But tonight, I'll be having the Death Talk with them.
House news. Realtors were here. They estimate listing the place at $150K. We bought for $79,900 a little less than 6 years ago. We hope to list by June 1. Which means I'm probably not going to get my Dream House since I'm too chicken to make an offer on it without an offer on this place.

I love it.
When does it go on sale? I figure it can only be about $50 a six pack...
Dude, note the date on that press release...
Duuuude....
<oh sorry, bill and ted's moment there>
Way!
(dude, the article as posted has no date. it mentions hops grown in 2003, but I thought it was using last years crop, maybe this years wasn't ready yet...)
In an April 1 press release, Dogfish Head stated...
Okay, so they've brewed it - I reiterate: "When can I get my grubby little mitts on it!?"
He's cute, Frosti, but sorta dense.
In the nicest possible way.
No no, see, it's an April Fool's gag! Work with me here.
Ya' think? 100% isn't really achievable?
Hee.
I still want me some. Maybe in our next homebrewing session...

Okay, doesn't really have much to do with beer, except the guys involved like to drink it - and probably will have to have a few to prepare for the planned act.
Also fairly funny.
Yeah. We should really plan a session soon. The problem is trying to decide if I want to brew or if I want to do a training ride for the MS150.
The obvious suggestion of course, is to do both. >:) Heh. We ride at dawn, come back to your place around 10 or so, brew, drink, sleep long. :)
I get tired just thinking about that.

I also am a master of the english language. This refutes my wife's claim that my English Degree is now null and void.

Hee, I was.
No bet. I was, too.
Mrs. Frosti was Ballad of a Thin Man.
Nice!
I always found that song to be cruel and mean spirited.
Hunh. I always thought it more about being misunderstood, but just went through the lyrics again - and it do seem a little mean spirited.
He's poking at the pretensions of those who throw stones and live in glass houses, I think.
It always felt like he was attacking the completely clueless.
Same picture, only you're painting with a wider brush. :)

But tonight, I'll be having the Death Talk with them.
Later the same evening, the daughters have the Dad Is Such A Fucking Dweeb Talk.
They can have that when they're only 4? Damn, I'm in trouble.
You're in trouble.
Thanks for the vote of confidence, davis.
