A friendly place for friends who drink

Having some McDonalds coffee and a sausage burrito. Wife ended up having surgery yesterday to remove the kidney stone. Didn't get discharged until 11:30 last night. Gonna be a long day.

I gotta start reading the thread more.

Best wishes and prayers your way, Holmes.

French press coffee. Signed up to a gym yesterday so I can start using their equipment/weights and start getting my right leg (and the rest of me...) back in shape. Nowhere near where I was in term of fitness these days, thanks to 15 weeks of no-weight-bearing etc.

It's gonna be fun.

 

[1977Brewer]

Haha... no, we had a great time.

However, most of it was me running both cars or her running to get her car after she instinctively squeezes the trigger all the way and send the car rocketing across the room.

But I had an idea, tonight I'm going to take a piece of electrical tape and tape it around the 'gun' so she can only pull the trigger to half throttle. That way she can tool around and I can work on my speed laps.

Also, hope the wife recovers quickly @wyobrewer1 .

My cousin and I built "kid guns" by opening up a couple and taping off the potentiometer so it just shut off if you floored it. They jammed a lot, but it taught a toddler not to pull the trigger all the way.

I hate running early when the provider is running late. Hoping to be in and out of this appointment.

Hope it's a speedy recovery for her and that you get a quiet day.

Crappy office coffee after getting here 40 minutes late due to delays. Biggest downer of coming to the office is not having my French press.

Yeah, I thought about that... but this will be cleaner and easily removable. It's not going to take much to keep her from being able to pull the trigger back all the way.

I'm getting one. That's all there is to it. Sounds like fantastic fun.

Ham n' eggs. Smothered. We both want more but now we're out of eggs. Getting some hens came to mind.

You don't need to be missing your press. I have one at home and another (insulated) one at work. I grind beans every Monday and put them in a tupperware container - come to work, boil water, and make a pot of coffee to have at my desk. It's the bees knees.

Haha, kid went nuts... I have no doubt yours would do the same.

This is the same set only newer design, has different power settings for different skill levels.

What's the longest you knuckleheads have ever waited to reciprocate a trade. I just looked for address of people I owe beer to and realize that they sent me beer in March/April of last year and I'm just now getting ready to ship back.

Yeah, I suck at trades.

Like a month? But I let them know that would be the case ahead of time... Had one beer conditioning that I wanted to get in the box.

 

[BrewinBromanite]

So katanas, sai, and a bo were ok, but nunchucks crossed the line?

Exactly! So there were no other ninja references, ever...??

Shun!

I don't believe so.

The show never seemed wanting as a result.

Did y'all not have the jingle, "Heroes in a half shell....Turtle Power!"

Also I wonder if the meatballs were turtle meat (ethically harvested of course)

 

[Ridire]

Shun!

Or maybe my story is that I was waiting for Hopslam to come out so I could send some of that...yeah, yeah, that't the ticket...

Four days. You're a monster. Okay like 2 weeks for a MAW box.

Jk, chit happens. Just throw extra HB in there

In my defense, one of the people is Remmy, and I've probably prolonged his life slightly by deferring this shipment.

 

[wyobrewer1]

Thanks all! She seems to be recovering well.

 

[finsfan]

Hope all went well for your wife wyo.


Sample of my bretted tripel thats been on 6lbs peaches and 2lbs cherries for a couple months. Probably bottling this week, as well as the one gallon batches of this that got raspberries, blueberries, and peaches/raspberries. Busy week at the Brewhouse!

Hoping she's better soon Wyo.

Also Ninja/Hero turtles both had "heros in a half shell, turtle power" in my recollection.

It was a stupid thing to change, and I remember feeling, as many did, that we got buggered pretty good when we learned it was supposed to be "ninja". I don't remember all the changes, but they were all dumb. I just remember all the Hero Turtles merch.

 

[DisturbdChemist]

Going to transfer some homebrew today and also some maintenance. Also, prepare a barrel for beer later this week. Been a lazy brewer lately

Just to be clear, you are calling the changes made to TMNT dumb, right? Or should I be in a fit of rage right now?

 

[pointcity-homebrew]

How can you have a Master's degree in EE and not know how to plug a cord into a receptacle? Apparently they do not teach that in Kathmandu.

Beer thirty cannot come soon enough.

Yes, the changes were dumb.

I'm only in the office one day a week and don't have an assigned cubical, so no place to safely store it. Not to mention my backpack is already about 50# so I'm not schlepping it up and back either. I figure it just makes me appreciate my press on the other days.

Was never a huge fan of the show. I watched it but not an avid fan. Never really won over by all the surfing vernacular. Always felt Leonardo and Donatello were carrying a lot of dead weight.

This was a great show. More my bag. Anyone else watch it?
