Good evening late nighters. Just caught up with the last 3 or 4 pages. This thread has been on a roll these last 24 hours. One thing, at least for me trying to catch up when this thread is on a roll; I just want to hit the quotation mark and then quote each thread thereafter and end up with an individual reply to everybody's post like Sharona Zamoni and LG do sometimes. If I’m in a real hurry I find one of there multiple post replies to catch up on what’s been going on. I haven’t mastered getting my point across in just a few sentences like they have. If I tried that it would be a book, maybe two.
So I'll just try to keep it short on what I can remember. And in no particular order
BobbiLynn. Beautiful ode to your friend, and hook a brother up, please send me a fox cap someday. Would be great for winter brewdays!
Stauffbier, future BrewMaster. Truly enjoy your post always. Your posts for me, for whatever reason are always a bit inspirational. Maybe corny but I'm indeed sincere.
Brother Mike!
Varmitman..was it Bobbi that called you treeman? You’re my hero in many ways. Guessing were similar in age but you just keep on like you’re 30 years old still. You motivate me! Be safe cutting down the big ol’ tree. Hope you wife does take some pics.
Pappy, how about some inside scoop on the $80 March pumps! An HBT insiders only deal?
TnGabe, I’m happy to hear your wife is okay. I don’t know how girls think about situations like this but if it happened to a guy.. I guy would only wish it happened to them. Talk about war stories! Very happy to hear your wife will be fine.
BottleBomber and BBL Brewer. You guys I've know longer than probably anybody except maybe Pappy since being on HBT. Do you know I still mix you two up? Sorry. It’s not a slam just a compliment. Two very cool people that always have tons of great brewing insight and you humor cracks me up.
Miker, tug at my roots. Go Navy. I would love to hear that song!
Emjay, your wit I truly enjoy. You’re always surprising me. I thought Bobbi must have made a typo and type car instead of coupe.. Was it BBl or Bottlebomber that called you an Arse, Ha.. then I finally picked it up.
So there you go, that’s me trying to keep up.
I spent the morning and early afternoon cleaning out my garage. It’s just gone to hell in the last 10 months, a total mess. Tools and sawdust, empty beer cans, general mayhem going on out there. Cleaned everything out today. Loaded 4 large leaf bags of garbage and a bunch of scrap wood. Will throw the bags in the garbage after garbage day take the wood to the dump next yard trimming day.
I also cleaned out the laundry room. The vent tube ruptured and had been spewing lint into the room. I didn't realize it till I pulled the dryer out today. What a mess. I took the washer and dryer out and found the walls and floor covered in lint. I sort of knew it happened but didn't feel like dealing with it, not till today. Now the laundry room is clean as a surgery room (well not really but pretty close). I dismantled the dryer and vacuumed, brushed, washed, high pressure aired every speck of lint out of it and then the whole thing back together. Really easy to pull one of those things apart. Tomorrow I need to stop by HD and pick up a new dryer hose. While I had everything out of the room I ripped up the ancient linoleum. I’m going to replace it with the peel and stick tiles. I used them at my front door entry way 10 years ago and they still look great. Hope they hold up in the laundry room.
I’m probably done brewing for a few months. Just too much to do around here. I'm getting this house ready to be a rental.
