    Are you the Black Sheep of your neighborhood?

    I used to have a house in a fairly laid back neighborhood. I would always help out a neighbor so they wouldn't get upset when I ran nitro r/c trucks up and down the street. Now I live at a golf course and about half the neighbors are stuck up. The ones right close to me are great so that's good...

    It was probably unintentional so let's give em the benefit of the doubt. I can't bare to witness another "$20 gift card" thread :-)

    So what exactly is your glassware of choice?

    Usually a pilsner glass and sometimes a mug. Here lately though my vessel of choice has been a narrow mouth mason jar. Old school dawg!

    Funny yeah, but dang! First having to explain that there is no tooth fairy and then zombie snowmen? We parents sure have our work cut out for us :-)

    Looking to get my dad into home brewing for Christmas

    BTW, whatever you decide to get, make it something that you can brew together and crack open the first beer together. It will make for a lasting memory even if the beer sucks. Point is to enjoy those moments together because trust me, they're fleeting.

    Looking to get my dad into home brewing for Christmas

    The MB kit should be great. It's a proven concept and introduces him to the hobby. Not sure what your fathers age but he may not be interested in toting around the standard 5 gal systems. I have a middle of the road system but would still love a Mr B kit to fiddle with. I say go for it

    Fusel alcohol???

    I apologize for not noticing the date

    Fusel alcohol???

    What kit was it, and do you recall the Original Gravity? The smack pack by itself does not constitute a starter. A starter consists of a quantity of malt extract, to which the yeast is introduced before going into the wort. Most smack packs can be directly pitched into worts of 1.060 or less...

    hello there

    Welcome to the forum, I grew up in Long Beach many moons ago. There's tons of information here and many folks to help you along. Just don't ask "carboy vs better bottle" :-) Again, welcome

    Avoiding the use of the tank was likely due to production costs. A tank, cruising the streets of Atlanta, with actors in its proximity? The insurance for that scene would be insane. Besides, starting and driving a tank has a bit of a learning curve attached.

    Now watch, someone will bring a lawsuit against AMC because the show was the (alleged) source of violence

    That zombie chick at the end of "I Am Legend" was sort of hot except for the bulging veins in her head.

    The Walking dead

    But do you have any zombie deer skulls? It's totally different :-) FWIW, I absolutely love the show and can easily suspend belief for 45 minutes for the sake of entertainment. I don't care where the bullets and gas come from, I just want some entertainment. I can go buy gas and shop at Walmart...

    Are Kegs, CO2 tanks, safe around small children?

    Of course use a strap. I used to instruct scuba and students would drop a tank from time to time with no ill outcomes. It was fun to tell students that they had a tank of compressed air on their backs containing enough kinetic energy to lift a locomotive off its tracks. Man, their eyes got so...
