Stopped at my favorite cheap and plentiful Mexican restaurant last night and they had Sam Addams Noble Pils on tap, had one to see how I liked it, had another because I really did like it.
I have a high tolerance but I'm pretty sure nearly 2 liters of 10% brew would knock me on my butt pretty soundly, especially on an empty stomach. Set sail for Hangoverville with a stop along the way at Ralfffffadelphia!
I normally leave at 3pm, there's not a lot of traffic then I -try- and stick to the fast lane and act like a nice guy. Inevitably some doofus will also stick in the left lane doing EXACTLY 70, on a 5 lane (one way) freeway with moderate traffic.
This is when my native German takes over, you...
If I have a 16 foot car I only need a 17 foot opening to merge IF YOU PISS ME OFF, I lived in the Bay Area for a while, that's NORMAL there (as I learned VERY quickly).
I also drive a GTO good luck "speeding up" to stop me merging I'll just get pissed and merge in front of the guy YOU are...
In my defense. There's -5- lanes of traffic (one way) on the main drag I take home, seriously you CAN get the hell out of my way if I feel like going 90 in a 70 and you feel like doing 75 in a 70 in the FAR left hand lane! Also everyone else is trying to do 80 anyway.
Oh I'd pick them up all right. Pick them up and place them neatly where his Gameboy (or other prized possession) WAS. Said prized possession would be locked away for a day or two.
Replace gameboy with whatever your kid can't live without, his cell phone, his computer, car keys whatever.
I have a TAD and LOVE IT too, fits in the fridge, easy to clean, easy to use. I bottle one TAD bottle each batch leaving me with plenty of normal bottles as well.
Wait wait wait, WHAT? How in the hell is this illegal?
Edit: well that was an entertaining google session. So yeah having a milk crate with a company name on it can get you busted and it can even be a freaking FELONY.
Wow.
I have the exact opposite problem, I gave away too much recently too and now I'm down to maybe a handful of homebrews, pipeline is strong but I gotta watch my urges to "share" too much.
These are $2.60 at the LHBS (which is across the highway from our offices at work) before I spent more than a little time diddling with it, I'd retire the lid to "garden" duty and just grab a fresh one. I actually bought 2 or 3 extra when I was getting started to be sure I had spares around...
Harvest here, but no one knows Harvest, AL except people who live here but Huntsville is recognizable to most.
I got a reply from Phil (forget the last name) one of the two reps I emailed:
I replied:
For some reason I just don't think this would be as fun as it sounds. Seems like one step away from just buying a realdoll and hiring a maid :)
My wife is ok with it as long as I don't drink up the fruits of my labor too quickly (aka get smashed). She only wants me to be healthy and happy.
No, Larry the Cable Guy is not actually from the South, were he a true redneck he'd know it's "get 'er done" you only use GIT if it's say, kids on your lawn, "GIT OFFEN MAH LAWWWWN YA BESTERDS!" or it's a dog jumping on you "GIT DOWN"
In the part of Germany my family is from it'd be more like "epp fell vhy" (said quickly epfelvy) much like you all becomes "ya'll" and "complete this project" becomes "get 'er done" in the part of the US I'm from :D
This brings up a question on an idea I had of making a wine storage rack out of a sincle 1x6.
My plan was to use a hole drill and drill appropriately sized holes at a slight angle about 2 maybe 3 inches apart, then stick the top of a bottle in so the bottle sits sidewise as it should...
