    Do I quit or suck it up?

    I'm a govt contractor in the DC area too and can attest the work blows although it's much better than the alernative. I think government and contractor employment is like the mob, once you're in you can't get out. It's amazing that the skills required on the government that don't translate to...

    Last time I drank Tequila...

    I can't believe someone else has done "Three Wisemen" shots! A word to the wise, don't ever drink this alongside "Prairie Fires" (tequilla and tabasco sauce).

    Last time I drank Tequila...

    When I was about 22 I donated a pint of blood in the afternoon, drank a half pint of VA Gentleman, and drank 10 beers in an hour later that evening. I passed out shortly there after. After a night of barfing, I had to report for duty. My morning ended with me puking in front of the...

    NC Everclear Ban

    It's my God-given right to be as stupid as I want to be. How dare the government get in the way.

    When it comes to a gift for my wife... I receive an EPIC FAIL!

    My wife swears that the best gift I got her was a Dyson vacuum cleaner. Either I really suck at gifts or she's crazy.

    On-Line Grain Purchase- Crushed or Not

    I'm getting ready to order some grain from www.brewmasterswarehouse.com but I can't find any information that indicates whether the grain is crushed or whole.:confused: I don't have a mill so whole grain would be a problem. Thanks!

    I'm old and crabby and will NOT read textspeak!

    My wife is a school teacher and can confirm that the literacy, spelling, and grammar of today's students are being killed by texting.

    What stinks when burned on a light bulb?

    Also, pour a tiny bit of sand in his bunk. Not too much to be obvious but enough to be a pain in the @ss. He'll notice when he's been laying down for a few minutes. You and the guys can bust his B@lls for being a filthy SOB.

    What stinks when burned on a light bulb?

    Break the light bulb. Not the outside but the filament inside. Drop the bulb on the floor or other hard surface but not hard enough to break the glass. He'll wonder why he's burning out his bulbs all the time- defective bulbs? defective light(s)? God doesn't like him? He'll never know

    Be honest. How often do you do this?

    I can relate 8-9 hours per day. I work for the federal government... Fixing the internet would be easier...

    Worst Commercial Beer You've Ever Had?

    When I was in the army we had a weekly tradition of buying 40 oz. of Schlitz Malt liquer for $1.10 (for each of us) before going out and getting tanked. For the life of me I can't figure out how my entire fire team came up with the idea of choking down 40 oz. of pure a$$

    Kids... did anyone tell you how it'd be?

    I can certainly relate. I have a 7 and 2 year old. There are some days where all I hear is "Dad, Dad, Dad, Dad....." This is usually when I demand to be called "Pedro" just for some variety. 3 months and 24 months is tough. As some of the guys mentioned it does get a lot better. When my...

    Ranting about divorce

    I looked at your profile. I see you're a grunt as well. In this case stay very, very safe and always think "center mass."

    Ranting about divorce

    I certainly agree with you Josh. I was in the 82nd back in the mid nineties getting ready to deploy. We had a young, married E-4 who's wife threatened to divorce him if he deployed. Some folks, especially non-military spouses are either too young, immature, or just don't get what it means to...

    Feel Good Brewing

    I wonder what kind of events are in a cornhole tournement? Maybe the beer is for medicinal use? I shudder to think of what's in a cornhole beer :eek:

    Useless Bottles

    It just dawned on me that most of the bottles I've been saving are screw top! Now I have to go and buy and drink a bunch of non-screw top commercial beer. I guess a beer drink's gotta do what a beer drinker's got to do.
