    What instrument should I learn?

    When I was 14 I blew all my hard earned summer job money on a $220 Pearl double bass pedal (glad I did, very high quality), $90 for ebony tom heads (pretty steep for heads, but they sound AMAZING), and over $400 for a ZXT Titanium cymbal set. They look great with my black and silver (steel...

    What instrument should I learn?

    I just try not to play before 9 am or after 9 pm, and I've never had any major problems. The only time I couldn't play whenever I wanted was when I was about 15 living in a townhouse (where my house was sandwiched between two houses that were connected to mine), and that was when I bought my...

    Man, I love Apfelwein

    Yeah I just picked up a 5 gallon jug from Wal Mart and I'll be going to Costco tomorrow for the juice. The only thing I couldn't find was the airlock, I asked at Wal Mart and Albertsons and water stores and everything but nowhere near me seems to have it. Does anyone know if there's a good...

    What instrument should I learn?

    Yeah drums pretty much kick ass :-) Good drummers get almost as many women as good guitarists, too. Though I must agree with goodbyebluesky that they can be a bit obnoxious to practice because of the volume, but that's not always a bad thing when you want to piss someone off :-D Usually I wait...

    Best Drunk Food?

    I liked Taco Bell 5-10 years ago, but since then they've become skimpy, lower quality, and more expensive. When I'm in the mood for Mexican I get the authentic stuff. Maybe a buck or two more, but better tasting and 10 times as filling

    Best Drunk Food?

    Beer fills me up but quickly washes out of my stomach because it's a liquid, so once I quit drinking I'm usually in the mood for something full of carbohydrates, especially pizza, burgers, or any type of potatoes. Pretty much any type of meat is good too. Damn I'm getting hungry

    What instrument should I learn?

    I can't sit here and tell you what instrument will be most fun for you because that depends entirely on the individual. Bass is the easiest to get a basic handle on, and I'm pretty sure almost anyone could strum through a simple song with little or no training, but yes mastering it is a *****...

    Looks like an easy/tasty brew. I just mixed up 2 liters for a test run

    Cane sugar vs. brown sugar for grape cider

    Thank you for the grammar compliment, but believe it or not some high school graduates temporarily end up behind bars. I recieved a private school education, but shortly after graduation I had a... bad phase. Several underage drinking charges and a DUI topped off by assult landed me a total of...

    What are you drinking now?

    Started with a 6 pack of Sam Adams but now I'm down to the Budweiser. Hell, beer's beer :mug:

    Cane sugar vs. brown sugar for grape cider

    So it's probably the same or pretty close in the States. The cornstarch is coagulating at the bottom but it doesn't appear to be affecting the brewing process. Pressure, texture, and smell are all about where they should be after a day. This is the first time I've tried it with grape juice...

    Cane sugar vs. brown sugar for grape cider

    Alright that's good to know. Obviously I'm pretty new to all this. Great signature by the way, I'm sure the Catholics like that one :-P

    Brewing in So Cal, here to learn and share

    Cool, San Diego is my favorite city here, I go there to surf occasionally. I spent the entire month of September 2007 in a Phoenix jail, and that cut my 4 month drinking binge short. Needless to say, my bloodstream was craving a bit of alcohol and I spent the first 3 days sleeping and...
