Oh eww.. sorry, I don't have a Kindle for obvious reasons. You picked up the hardcover? So excited for you! If you don't like it, I'll buy it off you for talking you into it. Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

I love my kindle. It's, beatup and scratched like flock but still works great. For travelling, accept no substitute.

I got the paperback used copy (because I'm cheap) along with a Lawrence Krauss I've been meaning to read for ages. No spherical cows but should be a good read.
 
No idea what's happened on their end. Just got a text my SIL saying thank you to me for trying to provide support and direction to my brother, but that she's done with him.

Kindles are great. No more lugging around a bunch of books when I travel. No more heavy boxes of books and bookshelves when I move. Mine's nearly 5 years old and still works great.
 
a guy from another place sent me 3 blocks of undrilled briar and 6 different pre-made stems. now all things I want to do at work isn't my job at all.


What does a guy have to do to get a Klubb pipe?? Anxious to see what you make.

Coffee and pretending to work. My give a flocc is broken
 
Can't really blame her. No offense to your brother.

None taken.

Yikes, that sucks, and seems to have escalated quickly.

Yes. I personally think she decided too quickly. Especially since she's going through some postpartum depression right now that would be affecting her mentally.

Also, her sister is a complete see-you-next-thursday and guaranteed is partially responsible for convincing her of this course of action.

I wanted to get one.. I had all these grandiose ideas that I would start reading again. That thought soon passed. I did buy a Kindle Fire HD for my wife and she loves it. If I could afford to travel, I'd make sure to get one. Cosmic Religion and The World as I See It are the only two books that exist on my 'want to read' list right now.
 
Hey all, sorry I've been so absent. Here's an update:

I've officially accepted the new position in Buford, Ga and my last day at work here is March 23rd. I won't have time to brew anything between now and then and I'm going to be scrambling like crazy to get my poop in a group for the move. I won't be checking HBT as often as I usually do from now on, since I have a real job and all, but I want to say thank you to all you awesome guys and gals who have taken my homebrewing to the next level, and have provided some relief from the boredom of a sh*tty job.

cheers to all of you, I'll be around but not often.

-Mat
 
What line of work is the new job? Surely you can take a 5min break every few hours. We won't let you quit that easy.

Also, a month notice for a job you dont care about? Cray.

Congrats on the new job and my condolences about moving to the south.

Congrats! Not sure why you would want a good job when you could spend all day with us, but enjoy! :mug:

Thanks man, the new job is shipping nuclear fuel logistics and engineering. So I'll be learning a lot of new skills and traveling all over the world. I had to make the exit from this job amicable because I'll still be in the same circle as my current bosses, and I may have to work with them again. New bosses are pretty laid back so I may be able to check in more than I think, but I need to bust my a** to make sure they are happy with their new hire haha

I hope the south isn't too bad, at least up up in the foothills of the App mtns and 1 hr from the AT trailhead.

Big cross country move coming up. Congrats on the new gig.

Do you have any connection to that area? Or is this a complete start fresh move?

See you on your next poop break.

What's a Synt?

There's really no fixing broken trust... The ppd probably isn't helping things at all, but he done ****ed up. Should have lied like a rug.

I have a few friends in the surrounding area but not many. So pretty much a fresh start for me and SWMBO. We'll be house shopping before I know it, which is terrifying.
 
Who are you? How did you get in here?

Damnit...I told you people to stop leaving the door open.

I'm assuming you're being obtuse, but just in case... C-U-Next-Thursday :p

And apparently he told her about everything. Which I can understand.

Yeah. Obtuse... Actually just couldn't believe a Canadian was talking about someone badly.

I can understand why he did too, and can understand why she's leaving. Sucks, but that's what happens. There were probably more underlying issues in their marriage anyway.
