    First Equipment Kit - Any Suggestions

    I would just start out with a basic kit from any of the vendors or your LHBS. Get one with and auto-siphon. You should be able to find one within your price range and it might even include your first extract ingredient kit. Don't worry about the secondary to start out, or the glass carboy...

    First brew, 2 weeks in....

    Looks good to me. Keep that lid on unless your taking a gravity measurement.

    Passat or CC

    Just one thing to note for the CC, being that it's turbocharged, you probably will have to use premium unleaded fuel. So I would guess you'll be paying more than 3.50/gal, which will change your calculations and give you even more fuel savings by going with the Passat. I actually work in front...

    Got a $50 gift certificate to the LHBS from SWMBO. Now time to plan out what I'm gonna brew. Probably should be something she'll enjoy as well.

    Getting laid off

    Yeah, the interview I have lined up is actually for my best friend's job. He's been working in a similar industry since college, and he's getting a promotion and they are filling his position with someone new. So I'm going to have him school me on all things in and out about his position and...

    Getting laid off

    Thanks for the words of support guys. The funny thing is that I had wanted to move on from my job for a while now, but I was kind of dragging my heels. So now I'll just throw the old resume out there and get something new going. The interview I have lined up would actually set me up for a 10%...

    Getting laid off

    Just got the news today that I've got 90 days left at my job and then that's it. And it's not a cost cutting thing, or eliminating positions thing either. The entire company is going out of business and about 100 people will be losing their jobs. I'm lucky enough to have saved a decent...

    Drinking Games

    ^^^it is very important that the fresh beer is taped to the growing staff before you start drinking it. This way each sip is taken off the top of the long staff. Obviously this becomes pretty tricky and rather funny as the staff grows above head height.

    Beer Hockey People As many as you can fit sitting around a table, but at least 4 or 5 Drink Bottles or cans Rules 1. Players seat themselves evenly around a table(round, square, rectangle, whatever) with their hands on their knees. Players place their drinks about 6 inches from the edge of...

    Seattle question

    I visited a friend who lives in Seattle a couple winters ago and we took a trip to Crystal Mountain to do some snowboarding. Awesome time, and not too long of a drive if I remember correctly.

    Landlord issues.... Short Sale on apt.

    I'm wondering if in the very least you have the right to be there in person when the scheduled showings are taking place? Of course that doesn't solve the issue of randoms coming by while you might be out.

    Landlord issues.... Short Sale on apt.

    Another question is, what happens if one of these unexpected agents and buyers comes by when you're out somewhere and just decides to help themselves to something of yours?

    Landlord issues.... Short Sale on apt.

    ^^^sounds like you might be SOL. Best thing to do then is not worry about clutter, nakedness, or whatever, and just annoy the sh!t out of them back.

    Landlord issues.... Short Sale on apt.

    It also may be a problem with how the place is listed on the MLS sheet. When I was shopping for my house, my agent and I went into a couple of houses that were listed as unoccupied and had lockboxes outside only to find people still living in them.

    Landlord issues.... Short Sale on apt.

    The lease might not necessarily have to run it's course if a new owner buys the place. Some friends of mine were renting a house that was foreclosed on with about 6 months left in their lease and they had to move out. There were legal obligations the bank(new owner) had to meet, but they...

    Vacationing in Vegas? Nice! Enjoy! And I think I'll keep my hedonism, and leave the "stans" with whatever they're into.

    She's actually from Inverness, and we were trying to go back to the Tampa area this weekend for Gasparilla, but couldn't pull it off between our two work schedules.

    Show us your SWMBO...

    She's actually an event planner for the Bellagio, so most of the time when she's going out it's for professional reasons, i.e. entertaining clients who want to see the hotspots in Vegas. And I honestly can't stand clubs(I'd much rather head to a dive bar or drink at home with friends), so I...
