    Disc Golf

    My high school was right across the street from a well known course, so we would frequently get lost on the way to class and end up throwing disc for hours (late 1990s). I used to play 3-5 times a week and could finish around 15 under for an 18 hole course........That was before a serious career...

    Official Broken Hydrometer Count

    HA!!! Sorry. I have a bad habit of transposing numbers when I am in a hurry. Glad you guys caught that one. And that is why I don't build bridges or buildings, people would die!

    Men: Getting snipped. Yay or nay?

    I would love grand kids. Maybe in 20 years I will feel different about changing poop, but for now i plan to send them over to sit on grandma's lap when there is something lurking in kid's diaper. Selfish? Yup, but I put up with enough s**t on a daily basis (wastewater treatment plants).

    Men: Getting snipped. Yay or nay?

    If there is a part of you that is unsure.......then don't do it. If you look at your family and are content........then by all means get it done. Every time I look at my boys I breath a sigh of relief that I will not (with 97-99% confidence) be adding any more craziness to our household, and...

    What do you do at your job?

    I write discharge permits for wastewater treatment plants, telling them how much or how little of what can or can't be in their effluent. You haven't lived until you have smelled the headworks of a treatment plant or a digester working away in the 110 degree CA heat.

    Holding a Candle for Malty Dark Beers in CA

    nDub, I actually work for the Regional WQCB. I did a stint with the State Board for a bit but I haven't been around long enough to experience it when they were CDPH. State work isn't bad, my department is constantly busy so I don't experience the typical state worker stereotype.

    Holding a Candle for Malty Dark Beers in CA

    Welcome to HBT! Well this is spooky....... I too am stuck in the armpit of CA, better known as Sacramento. Well Orangevale to be exact, a quickly deteriorating suburb of Sacramento. I too share your love of malt, although I do appreciate the hops as well. As long as its beer I am OK with...

    Wood fired copper water heater

    Look into rocket stove water heaters. I think a major problem would be trying to maintain a constant temp for heating mash water without boiling. Good luck.

    Any swimming pool people here? Lost 8 inches of water in one night

    +1^^^ Look for your neighbors running a hose under the fence at night to keep their grass lush and green. On a serious note, I have zero experience with pools other than swimming and peeing in them :) but 3000 gallons overnight seems like it is a lot. Good luck! The cost of the leaking...

    wy1968: Any words of advice that don't involve rousing?

    THIS^^^ Oh and look forward to some AWESOME fermentation action, and a layer of "jello" like yeast cake. This yeast kicks some serious ass! Last time I used 1968 it slowed at around 18-24 hours like JonM said so watch out for it slowing and ramp your temp accordingly.
