And miles to go before i sleep.

Why didn’t you just pop into a nearby hollow log?

 

[smurfjuice]

Forgot my pillow.

 

[paulthenurse]

Oh. OK. That explains a lot.

Not Dland’s poetic bent but a lot of other stuff.

Semi literate isalnd contractors, who would have thunk it?

I swear, insurance companies get their rocks off denying prescribed treatments. We shouldn't need that handicapped placard yet here we are.

fwiw, The Spousal Unit and I received our first oldster Moderna vaccinations on schedule this morning at Gillette.
Have to give them credit, they run a heck of an operation there. At no time did we feel they didn't have everything important accounted for.
Indeed, the only thing missing was guidance on how to get the hell out of the oceans of parking lots!

So far just the slightly sore shoulders for both of us.
2nd shots scheduled exactly 28 days out - same day, hour, minute. Easy peasy!

Cheers!

 

[Tipsy McStagger]

I was there as well.Very efficient operation.2nd shot in 28 days.

Don't forget to NOT use the microwave for two weeks until the tracking device has had time to lodge into the system.

 

[day_trippr]

Hahahahaha! You mean it's not in the wrist band? Damn!

 

[Dland]

No worries, I don't think you have to wear it if you stay in Stow.

The Lyme disease bracelet is more hip.

Hard pass on the Lyme Disease Association donation gift, thanks

Hi all,
been hibernating, and not brewing beer for awhile, but just got me gear re-built, and am getting ready to start the mash tun once again.


As an FYI, the VA has plenty of vaccines, so please tell any vets that you know to register with the VA and get going. No age restrictions - hardly any wait at all.

Now The dude has given us a fine example of the sort of post we should strive to achieve here, In its poignance, punctuation and brevity. {;

I noted the depth of inscrutability. Nice!

On other fronts, for those who did not take advantage of Brother Niles' BSG bulk buy last month here's an opportunity to score base malt cheap.

RIP to Marvelous Marvin

Today is just frigging gorgeous. Perfect day to burn up the back yard.

 

[TheDudeLebowski]

Cheers Paulie

Is there anyway you can get the governor to push up my vaccine in order to attend Armsby's reopening day?

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Yea, Spring!

 

[paulthenurse]

Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. What? The Armsby is pulling some kind of vampire sh!t and rising from the ashes? I’ve got a full tank of gas. When?

Lets ignore for a moment that I’m not drinking beer these days. God I miss my friend beer.

 

[paulthenurse]

BTW, anyone know anyone interested in a three keg horizontal HERMS system? The f’ing thing has been taking up space in my basement since the last time I used it ten years ago. (When I DO brew, once or twice a year, I do five gallons in a cooler.)

Oddly enough, it has become a source of contention between myself and Mrs Nurse.
All offers considered

Yup! It was weird/smaht that they closed down as soon as the pandemic hit. They're opening in April. They've been posting cryptic messages on Instagram. One had the number 10 which I'm guessing is April 10th. For me? It's gonna be a while before I get the vax. Hopefully they'll be doing pickups. They were doing that just before they closed. Pick up a couple of growlers of Hill Farmstead and hit cyprian or Wachusetts for golf.

You got pix whatever of what you're looking to part with Paulie? I just bought a rig and got a lot of sh!t to put together.

 

[day_trippr]

iirc, it's a three keggle rig on 1" square tubing with a pair of bg10 elements.
I saw him actually brew with it once so I reckon it works...

Cheers!

 

[bluemoose]

Does it hold 28 gallons of spare water?

 

[Dland]

Kinda invokes a wistful feelin, like an old pet you got to put down, or a friend you will not likely see again soon on account of their social choices, or worse...

Almost a local legend on HBT sellin his rig.... now for a moment of silence.... :]

 

[smurfjuice]

Wow.

 

[Dland]

In lighter news, tomorrow, when the sun has been arisson in the morning sky for around 3 hours, I intend to start heat on the strike water, figure what I want to make, and mill the grist. I'll be brewing another lager in the continuous use fermentor style...w S-189 at around 52F. Might go a little maltier this time around. I got some Munich to use up and I've been exploring "dry" with wonderfull rye lagers all winter. Prolly should do a marzen soon, eh?

 

[Tipsy McStagger]

Sounds good.Happy Easter.
