    Let's complain about stupid drivers...

    Oh boy! I was going to turn into a plaza today off a pretty busy two-lane (each side) street. This street has a middle turn lane as well for both sides to use. I had to completely stop in the right lane because I couldn't turn into the plaza entrance. This idiot was diagonal in the...

    Let's complain about stupid drivers...

    I'm on a personal vengeance after going to lunch today during work. I wanted a nice meal so I decided to drive instead of walk to a farther place. It appears there was some sort of event going on in our downtown area because traffic was 20x worse than it is on any other day. It's the people...

    Let's complain about stupid drivers...

    How about on off ramps when people need to turn right and ride the entire shoulder past like 20 cars while there are people waiting their turn in the proper lane to turn right without riding the shoulder.

    Let's complain about stupid drivers...

    I can't wait to get cameras for my vehicle. I have a pc in the car already but am swapping it out for a tablet. I am in process of researching recording devices for about 4 cameras. Just this morning on the way to work, I was slowing coming up on a red light when behind me I hear sirens. I pull...

    Let's complain about stupid drivers...

    So tonight I was driving my family back from the sons soccer game. We were driving "in flow" with traffic about 5 mph over the speed limit. The 2 lanes merge into 1 (because construction) and everyone is doing the proper zipper as the lane ending is beginning to merge farther and farther back...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    Thanks for the info bpgreen. I'll leave out the spices for this one to test the basics first. I've been playing with the brewersfriend recipe creator for numbers, and made some changes: .25 lbs Chocolate Malt (steeped before) *unchanged* *changed (amounts and type)* 1 lbs Extra Light DME 2...

    Mr Beer - Read all about it and ask questions

    So i've been staring at my Mr. Beer keg fermenter for a while now as it collects dust. I've only ever tried the 1 kit that came with it and didn't care for it. I've been doing lots of wine over the years since I found this site, but want to try my hand at beer again. Previously, I've discussed...

    Can the beer be saved (from keg)?

    It wasn't from a distributor, it was from a club my buddies dad is a member of which is where they had this get together. They didn't even originally want us to take the keg. Truthfully speaking I am not worried at all about it, my buddy is since he paid for it. Thanks for the advice!

    Can the beer be saved (from keg)?

    Yes. That was my plan. In fact there were 3 heavy drinkers and everyone else was 1 or 2 beers all day. I feared that might be a problem. Everything already bottled was given away with instructions to drink it as soon as possible.

    Can the beer be saved (from keg)?

    My buddy had a keg of Yuengling at a get together. Turns out that a lot of people didn't show, and we ended up taking the keg back to my place. Since he had to turn the keg back into the place he got it from he didn't want to waste/lose all that beer he paid for (the place wouldn't reimburse)...

    GOOD on Netflix STREAMING?

    I've been interested in finding something I've started a long time ago, but can't remember what it was called. I think it was mentioned in this thread before... About the only things I can remember: - a documentary about the universe - displayed a series of "seasons" that the universe goes...

    Skeeter Pee

    I did a reading on mine tonight, 1.010, almost there! Just straight lemon and no other flavors for the first attempt. It smells so good! Gonna be somewhere from 10-12%. I think for my next batch I'll cut the sugar in half to get about 5-6%. Should be awesome for those hot days coming up when...

    Skeeter Pee

    Tested my batch today and it has barely even moved. Rereading my notes, I see that I never put in nutrient and energizer... Oops... So I put in the nutrients and energizer and was ready to repitch yeast. Before adding the yeast, the batch started fizzing and bubbling. I wonder why the yeast are...

    Skeeter Pee

    Well, my water/sugar/yeast solution really never "kicked off". 2 days later and it was still at the OG :(. I decided to dump all of the 96oz of lemon juice in anyways last night and told myself that I would make a starter in the morning. This morning, it's bubbling like crazy. Weird, who knows...

    Skeeter Pee

    I just started a 5 gallon batch of water/sugar/yeast at 1.080 - 1.082. I am planning to add the lemon juice during the next couple of days, but not all at once. Will be using 96oz total over 2ish days with nutrient/energizer. I am assuming this is ok vs using a starter. Can't wait as my mixed...

    GOOD on Netflix STREAMING?

    I still enjoy watching Family Guy. It still amuses me when I need to relax, laugh, and just not care. I used to love The Simpson's when I was younger, however for the past 8-10 years I haven't felt myself caring to watch it all; if I do it's never as funny as it used to be! Anyone have any...

    Married not even a half-year...

    SWMBO and I just recently tied the knot 2 weeks ago. I opted for a tungsten ring. I don't care for gold, and it has a very simple design on which I really like. When sizing at the store, it felt "just right". When it came in, it felt 1/2 size too big. Of course, they didn't tell me it costs to...
