Thanks for the replies everyone. As it works out we'll be spending a day seeing agents and then the night in each town, we'll have a car but probably need to stay within a few miles of our hotel which at this time I'm assuming will be in the downtown area of each city. Is the original wing...

I'll be going on a business trip the middle of January with stops in Buffalo, Syracuse and Albany. Where should I be drinking/eating and what local beers should I be trying? I'm in So Cal so no idea of the East Coast scene.

I'm guessing they lit the BBQ to stay warm because the probably couldn't afford the cost of heat, see that a lot when they report how 6 people died from the carbon monoxide.

The smoking bans weren't put in for the patrons but the employees that had to work in the atmosphere all week and be subject to the 2nd hand smoke.

+8, a buddy of mine would take his girlfriend and his 12yr old nephew neither of who were certified and then wonder why I wouldn't dive with him. Also don't be an SOB when diving with someone, same ocean buddy.

I lost 60lbs 3 years ago and have slowly put about 40 of it back on. The beer is my downfall, too many calories per shot. For a workout I recommend crossfit but go to www.crossfitbrandx.com for a scaled version, unless you're already fit and familiar with olympic lifts you probably won't be...

I think the Warrior Challenge is pretty much the same type of race. In either case it's not like a simple mud run with some obsticles and if you haven't been training you could be in for a very hard time, plus good chance of injury.

Really! Grow an F'ing pair and get over it and then go use said pair. You live in probably the most desireable city in the US which is loaded with beaches, babes and breweries. Start doing what you enjoyed but weren't able to do while in your relationship, brew more, hang with the...

Going to be in town with the family for vacation for a few days and I need some family friendly places to grub and if they feature local beers that is a plus. We'll be staying at the Dana Inn on Mission Bay across from Sea World so something within 10 miles max. Appreciate the help.

Long Beach has some good options as well, Rock Bottom, Belmont Brewing Co. and some just fun bars. The bars on Second St are the local college watering holes while Pine St and the Pike are more touristy and downtown older residents. You're a long way from Stone so you may want to plan on...

I looked into it, we're paying $90/month now for our FIOS triple play which includes cable/internet(high speed) and phone. If I dropped the cable it's still almost $70/mnth for the high speed internet 25mbps/25mbps and phone so not really a savings for having to set up internet TV. The upside...

Okay, so not the best night to brew out of doors. Who the F knew it rained like this in So Cal? Hopefully won't be raining for my marathon next week. I am proceeding with my APA despite the weather.

Back to School. "Yes, it's true the man has no dick."

Checked the gravity tonight and it's still not done, was at 1.030 and shooting for 1.015. We are supposed to have a warm spell starting tomorrow, should be in the 70's for a week or so, I'll see if that is enough to get them started again or will move into the house, SWMBO permitting.

Being in Southern California this is a problem I haven't encountered before. I brewed 2 batches last Friday and cooled one to pitching temp and pitched and the second bach I left to cool until the morning. Well it's been getting down to the low 50's/high 40's here at night and not going above...
