Just my luck

So this morning my neighbor comes to my door and needed a jump. Bad thing is that her car is stuck in her garage and so I decided to take the battery out of my truck to start her car. Off she goes and I begin planning my day around my brew session. Well now the LHBS is open and I was going to go get some ingredients. I get in the truck and go to start it and hear a thump under the hood. One of the acid covers on the battery just blew off. Now my truck won't start and I cannot get to the brew shop for my afternoon brewing session..... What did I do to piss off the brewing gods

and to top it off, there is a free chest freezer on craigslist for the first one to pick it up

Man, what did you do? Kick a couple old ladies last time you brewed? There are some forces in the universe that are pissed at you!

hummmm free chest freezer...

Last one there is a rotten egg

BTW... which Homebrew store do you use athrobe?

I prefer to use brewers connection

I jump between them and What Ales ya... since I have moved, WAY is a little closer for last minute things, but BC if I'm shopping on the weekend.

I have yet to go to What Ales ya. That is on the west side...right?

Is she hot at least?

Steal someone else's car. That will work.

Manual? Push start that hoe!

Man, talk about kicking a fellow homebrewer when he's down...don't you mean the last one there has warm homebrew???

Hmm...things are looking up. During my nap new Perlick faucetts just arrived. A new car battery is on its way as well. I should take naps more often. Now I feel all reasted to brew here in a few hours

Prepping to brew another HW as I type...

Just giving him a hard time... I'm stuck at work, still have another hour or so to go

BTW... WAY is around 63rd Ave and Bell.. I think that Glendale area.

Well what looks to have turned out as a tragety, actually turned out quite well. I got a new battery for free (just under the free replacement warranty) and I made it to the brew shop. Currently steeping grains for a Rasberry Cream Ale. Also installed the new Perlick forward sealing faucets which are 100X better than standard faucets. Now I just have to keep watching temps and try not to drink all the Apfelwiezen . Oh, one bad thing happend. The free freezer got away!!

No good deed goes unpunished.

Yeah really Dibby! Right after he said this the bow-chicka-bow-wow music starts and the pr0n begins.

Just look at it this way; you did a good dead for someone and someday it will come back to you.

I seem to have a habbit of going out of my way to help others all the time. This one seems to be paying off so far, not that I really care...bow chica bow wow!!
