I see the local geese when I'm out running and wonder how they don't end up on more dinner plates. If it wasn't for their penchant for eating on golfcourses with all the attendant pesticides and chemicals I'd consider gittin me a 2x4 and goin out at dusk ... talkin bout "heeeere goose - honk...

Goose Island has some hoppy ales. Something hoppy goes well with Goose which is rich and fatty.

How about the name "Anakin" ... after Anakin Skywalker. Wait ... Ahhh ... oh snap, that's Hayden Christensen. Nevermind.

But, I love my golf umbrella. It's so cool ... mine has a cell phone charging feature for golfing in thunderstorms. A cord pulls out from the handle and you plug it into the adapter port on your cell phone. You do have to stand in the open preferably on a bit of a rise or hill, so its a bit...

First thing you do it call the local police departments and ask if they have any lost pet calls fitting that description. The police won't confiscate the animal. They don't want a dog or cat. Nor do they want to send it to death row. Then, call the local pound and ask whether anyone has...

The absurdity of Red Bull's contention made me wonder what's really behind it. Apparently Red Bull has done this before. In 2013, Red Bull sued another brewery, the Redwell Brewery in Norfolk, England for exactly the same thing. I appears Red Bull's contention there was over the "Red" in...

Austin Male sounds good. As far as "Evan Male" ... I would be hesitant to use that name. Even though I do understand the name is pronounced with a short "E", I suspect some will pronounce it long and he'll have to re-correct them ... and that further, I think he might be in the same...

Lance or Dirk or Deke I also like a name which evokes some other thing ... Two real people whose names come to mind are: Thomas Stackhouse Acton Thomas Langhorne Phipps (who goes by "Lang Phipps") Kräusen Stackhouse Male "Stackhouse" and "Langhorne" are both dandy names. To those I might...

At our German Club we had a goat pulling a beer wagon bring in the ceremonial first keg to our annual Bock Beer Festival. I've got pics of the grand entrance somewhere but can't find em right now. In any case, here is the Goat of Honor from that night being serenaded by some of the girls...

And while I'm at it. Though the following example is cows rather than goats, the mindless government regulation is the same. SO, with regard to the THE MAN telling us what livestock we can keep and where we can keep it ... to try and put it in context ... From the "Business Series" of cow...

The goats will absolutely pull her in a little cart. And strewn with flowers if she likes. Not only that, they will pull a beer wagon ... a bock beer wagon. If there was ever a way to make an entrance to a party ... this is it ...

+1 to goats

That's the trick ... making sure to include her. Otherwise she feels left out. And if she doesn't like brewing etc ... giving equal time to couples stuff she does like.

"Fine. If you're going to have a beer then I'm going to have chocolate."

It aint gonna unthaw anytime soon. Grab a spud, some picks (safety an all), couple two tree tip-ups and a couple of jumbos and head out an so.

Wha!? ... no how no way. Oot kaunis, yah dere hey.

ahhh ... I'd take Yooper out on a date to Possum Lodge. Yah know, they make homebrew at the lodge? I hear Old Man Sedgwick makes a popular brew ... Sedgewick's Ale is half of the popular "Back End Van" ... similar to a Black & Tan but with Sedgewick's on the botton and an unusually heavy and...

There's an interesting story about ways they got beer to the troops at the front in WWII that I posted a couple years ago at the following link ... interesting story ... https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f19/wwii-beer-story-memorial-day-413078/ (btw ... still like to get the model plane, referenced...

A famous Detroit website is "The Fabulous Ruins of Detroit" ... http://www.detroityes.com/fabulous-ruins-of-detroit/toc.php Some of the most poignant pics for me are of Detroit's mansion districts from the 1800's. One such is Brush Park. About 25 years ago I came perilously close to...
