Masstoberfest 2015

Everyone raise your hand if you care........





That's what I thought.

Oh good. I was afraid people were gonna miss me after I moved.

 

[paulthenurse]

Not likely

 

[nhwrecker]

Wow. A trip to IHOP to celebrate a victory. Someone knows how to party.

At IHOP, do the waitresses walk slow because they're all old, or because of all the syrup on the floor?

 

[paulthenurse]

Enough with the friggin' IHOP tal!k Jesus I want to open a vein!

 

[Melana]

The thought of pancakes is a good one. Now i want to go home and make some apple pancakes. I've got a gallon of VT maple syrup too.

 

[nhwrecker]

Hey Paul,
let's meet at IHOP after your 12 hour shift. I'll get some waffles to go with your whine....

 

[Melana]

Do they still sell lingonberry butter on crepes?

Edit: Yes they do. I am bored enough at work today that I looked it up.

 

[paulthenurse]

Die. All of you.

Paulie has other things to worry about. Has he been making frequent trips to the transfer station lately?

Why did you hear that the pizza oven collapsed?

 

[paulthenurse]

Everybody ought to have their own pizza oven. You can cook a pizza in 90 seconds. You can cook a steak in 3 minutes. You can dispose of a dead hooker in an hour and 15 minutes. And the ash does wonders for the garden. They are great!!!!!

 

[paulthenurse]

John Farrell, manager of the Red Sox, just announced that he has when lymphoma . Get well John.

 

[Daddymem]

Wow. Imagine my surprise watching the Falmouth Road Race yesterday when I saw this flash of silver, white, and pink and this amazing sense of being near real power washed over me. I saw the crowd all turn to see what it was, but alas, it was too fast for human eyes to see. I had a hunch though. The Masstoberfest Cup was in Town I bet!

There was no way that sly fox Melana was letting Sambu beat her now that she has the Masstoberfest Cup. That Cup gave her such amazing powers of speed that she crossed the finish line before they even had the finish line ready. That's ok, it made Sambu feel better to break the tape even though he lost by a mile.

Where will the Masstoberfest Cup show up next I wonder?

 

[Yooper]

Well, since it sounds like Paul has about 3 people coming I'd give the odds as 33% to each attendee.

 

[paulthenurse]

Oh for gods sake Yoop. There are going to be plenty of people at Masstoberfest All the lurkers here show up out of the woodwork for the free food and beer.
I'll even arrange a tour for you of a local nano that I know. I'm friends with the owner and it's just a few minutes drive away. Maybe you've heard of them, Blue Hills Brewery?

 

[Melana]

Nothing is ever free Paul...

Are we still asked to bring you socks?

 

[paulthenurse]

That would be nice, but as always, not required.

If I could put aside the PTN ****** persona for a moment and just be Paul.


For those of you who are Masstoberfest virgins, I work on a per diem basis for Boston Health Care for the Homeless and one thing we never have enough of is clean dry socks. I ask everyone who comes to consider bringing a bag of adult sized athletic socks along. It is not required and no one will say word one if you don't. We all have our own financial and philosophical circumstances. I get that and it's cool. But if you want to help and in a very real direct way bring along some socks. I bring them down to Pine Street and put them into our clothes closet. I was there yesterday and grabbed something out of that closet and noticed it's pretty bare. And as Ned Stark says Winter is Coming.

Thanks

Now I'll go back to being PTN.
Hey Cape, GFY.

Ok, that'd be great.

I was just thinking. You were in Austin when I was, about 6 miles away, but you were "tired" and went back to your hotel instead of coming to our little party. But I could fly halfway across the country to come see you and go to your little party. That seems a bit unfair if you ask me. I guess it's a good thing you didn't ask me.

 

[paulthenurse]

No one asked you. And besides, it wasn't really me. It was my friends wife who was the wet blanket. I just took the blame and made up a stupid excuse since we still had to spend the next four days with her. She was a little dismayed at the amount of drinking the rest of us were doing, her hubby most of all. Sometimes you've got to be considerate of everyone. I usually try to avoid that but sometimes it's the prudent thing.

Good point! You missed some great BBQ though.

And there may have been a little drinking as well. I know I brought homemade wine, and a friend or two may have brought a keg or two.

 

[paulthenurse]

Hey Yoop. Did you get a dog sitter and tickets yet?

 

[andrhamm]

Didn't have time to read the whole thread, but could the original post be updated with more specific information about this event? Where is it? Does the venue support electric brew rigs (doubt it but would be good to know)? How many brewers attend? Thanks!

The event is held at Paul's house. He might have electricity for you but he always has water. Send Paulie a PM and he'll send you the address.
Hope you can make it!

 

[paulthenurse]

I do have electricity but only the typical outdoor garden outlets. If you need 220 watts /volts/ohms/nuclear flux capacitor thingumbobs you are S O L. And for obvious reasons I don't put my address up on the board, but pm me and I'll send it.

 

[paulthenurse]

And if you do come than we will have one more brewer. Last year we had.......... Ok. Help me out here......

Smurf brewed a steinbeir
Dakota brewed a speed of light beer
Melana brewed
Daddy men brewed
Lizardeye brewed
Did Mort and the_bird brew?
Who else? It seems like there were more but the combined effects of the subsequent year's alcohol intake has dulled my memory.

 

[Melana]

Smurfie used his rocks to boil wort.
the_bird did infact brew.
Dakota proved that you can make beer, nap at the opera, and still impregnate the wife.
I believe Mort drove down from New Hampshire just to drink.
Paul - did you brew?

 

[paulthenurse]

No, I cooked a hawg.

I can brew a wicked pissah beer or I can cook a wicked pissah awesome BBQ hawg. But I've successfully proved over the years that I can't do both at the same time

 

[paulthenurse]

Insert snotty comment about me never having shown I can do either here....

 

[Yooper]

Hey Yoop. Did you get a dog sitter and tickets yet?

You mean Toby can't come? Geez. And I thought everybody was welcome.

No, I cooked a hawg.

I would rather have some awesome hawg. I can make my own beer. (You can do that at home these days, you know).
