I spent my day doing the impossible for the ungrateful.
Same here.
I spent my day doing the impossible for the ungrateful.
Give us this day our liquid bread for we have brewed and patiently fermented. Then we bottled with loving care and whist we waited in the slowness of time for carbonation we read and posted. As our beer approached it's time of glory we planned the future use of our fermenter. When the time came for the work our hands to be glorified we offered it in praise as a sacrifice to toils of our lives that take us from our brew and our brewing.
Let us all offer a mug to every creator of beer:
Yeah, going to work every day ain't exactly its own prize...

Almost Friday (which means more beer than a week night)
Yay it's Thursday
Here's why my kegs are prit near empty:
-been laid-off for nearly 3 months now, not nowing if I'm going back to work at all.
-having to go back to school, when it truthfully is not needed, to cover the same ground I have already taken 5 yrs earlier. Oh!! yah, worked my ass-off to pass with a 95% avg.
-living in the nasty camel toe of the earth, not in sunny Az where the missus and I were happy.
With all of this try and make it happy in the house hold so the kiddies don't know that this sucks and hopefully will get better.
Chears,lol.
It's at this time I would like to quote Jimmy Buffet.

Tiem for an Oatmeal Stout...
Ever have one of those days when you say to yourself "I need a beer tonight!"?
Well, what was your excuse for needing a beer tonight?
Mine was busting my knuckles trying to replace the spark plugs on my '05 F150.. I managed to get 6 out of 8 done this evening. Tomorrow is another day..
I need a beer tonight!!!
Hey, msa8967
I always thought you looked familiar. I just made the connection:
We are of the same vintage my friend
I have a buddy that tried changing the plugs in his 2005- F-150 and ended up snapping off two of the eight and had to have a professioonal drill them out. Very expensive fix for this so I can really understand wanting a couple of brews after that.
I just love the images that NB put out for these posters. The one you have up is my favorite in the series. I have written them asking if they could make these images on tee-shirts, mugs, glasses and such but so far nothing.
Good to see that there is another fan of this print.
Actually, they didn't run out of beer, they just wanted more late hop additions.Why did the Pilgrims land on Plymouth rock? THEY RAN OUT OF BEER!
You need to drink a beer in the morning after that run.Wake up at 4am, run 3.5 miles, shower, breakfast... all quiet enough not to wake the wife and kids... leave at 5:30am, drive 1.5 hours through cow fart air to a prison, deal with guys who have done bad things + tons of paperwork for 10 hours, drive another 1.5 hours home, arrive home at 6:30pm to an amazing (and tired) family... all the while knowing I have to do it all over again in less than 10 hours. Yeah...
Been there, done that. I found Guiness foreign extra for 14RMB/bottle, which isn't that cheap, but RMB is like monopoly money, so I had a few.Because I'm in China and I need something to wash down whatever the hell that was I just ate.
I substitute taught middle school--the pits. Regular teacher told me to go home and have some JD. I did.I teach middle school. Anyone remember middle school? Yeah, I thought so!
