I have to say my all time favorite is the Doner Kebap. In DC I usually head straight for Julia's Empenadas or Alberto's Pizzaria (they say its Chicago style, but its most definately NY style).

About 19 miles one way. I take public transport, so its 1.5 hours each trip...I spend 3 hous of my life, each day, traveling to and from work. If I drove it would take about 35-40 minutes, but I can't afford the exhorbitant prices DC garages charge.

Blu-Ray FTW!:rockin:

Sounds like my first apartment in DC. How do you keep your dog from getting a little too nosey?

With Life Alert (tm) you can stay alone without being alone....:p

Sounds good, I'm in.

Quite right Bob, I wasn’t aware that tun was infact an English term. Brewing lingo is very convoluted due to our usage of words from several different languages.

LOL...well my roommates are going to be in for a treat this weekend. :mug:

It may have sounded different depending on the region they are from. For example I can understand Hochdeutsch and Bayerisch (Erdinger is from Bayern), but Berlinerdeutsch, Hessisch, and Schwäbisch are impossible for me to understand even though almost all of the words are the same.

Can't forget the s-set (β) either. I don't care if the German government is trying to get rid of it, I'm always going to write it.

Fixed your post :)

As a speaker of German I would pronounce things like this: Saaz = sahtz trub = troob wort = vort tun = toon kräusen = kroy-zen vorlauf = for-lowf Reinheitsgebot = rine-heights-geh-boat (the 'geh' is normally not emphasized) hefeweißen = heh-feh-vise-en Hefeweizen = heh-feh-vi-tzen...

Ah ok, that makes sense. I'm still a n00b trying to learn the ropes. I'm making a hefe in my apartment this weekend...here's hoping it doesn't smell as bad as your beer evidently has.

That is the problem right there. If you have a bunch of splitters installed you will have a loss of 3db or more at each splitter. All he did was take a reading of your signal strength as it entered your house (before all of the splitting). I suggest installing a good signal booster infront...

The Pol: Thats basically how mine works. It is so much easier to save if you have your savings redirected from your pay-check automatically (leaving only enough cash for your budget). That way you never risk over spending each month.

Why did you add all of that extra sugar to the boil?

Just wait until they start using our GPS systems to track our every move and determine if we ever speed with our cars. ;)

They are highly carbonated, but when you drink one in germany the caronation is very fine, so the beer seems quite smooth as a result.

The grocery stores already do this. They use those shopper discount cards to track the spending of their customers. Fortunately atm all they use the data for is to help target their advertising in local communities.

There are quite a few reasons that the Hacker-Pschorr you had in the States just didn't measure up to its German counterpart. The 3 biggest IMHO are: 1. Not fresh 2. Pastuerized 3. You may have served it too cold. If you are dieing for a Commercial Hefe that is excellent from the...
