Just found out I got an 88% on my Drug Addiction exam, B+, not bad for a class I don't care about (had a four pack of Narwhal in the lib while studying hahahahha)
 
We have to share desks where i work. My co-worker left his cell phone on the desk last night (with 6 alarms set to go off this morning) so I paired it up with his Oscar Goldman doll and wrote him a little note. And yes. I made him the hat too.

If you can't read it it says
"Christopher,
I suffer from debilitating separation anxiety. When left alone I set off an alarm every 4.3 minutes. I miss you
- your phone"
Worst thing is its one of those sealed battery phones and for some reason it cant be turned off without getting through the lock screen.
I need a beer.

even if you get knocked points for not being true to style, you will still get honest feedback on others aspects of the beer that could be improved. What comp is it?

I never got good feedback on my beers. Just the standard crap or like my sour stout. " there is little body. More like a porter".. Yea and a Grand Master called my Brett Saison infected. I have not had good feed back but just ignorance. I never brew to style anyway. :p

Way you label it does have an affect on the score. I havent been happy with the comps I enter. No help at all. Most comments are probably mishandled of the beer. Its worst with meads. i got a few "past its prime" comment. How do you know its past its prime when you never had it :confused:

I bet water will turn it off. Probably just needs a little swim to relax.

My 4 month old was having trouble breathing. Took him to the ER and it turns out he has a respiratory virus. To us it would just be a cold, but it's more serious in babies. He did this 2 weeks ago and it turned out to be bronchitis, pneumonia, RSV, and rhinovirus. And they are afraid his brain started swelling so they are pumping him full of antibiotics. He's in the PICU, stable, and in good condition. Momma is with him and I'm at home with our 2 year old because children under 12 aren't allowed in the PICU.
Was he a preemie? They're usually the biggest RSV risk. That was a nerve-wracking experience.

Think I'm going to do it, though I'm stuck on registration because I don't have a name for it haha. Never thought my beers were really worth naming.
Just name it the name of the style. The only way anyone other than the organizer and sorting crew will see the name is if you medal. There's a couple guys I know of that name everything something like "John's American IPA" or "This Is An American IPA". Simple and effective. It always makes looking at results funny when they medal a bunch of beers.

Saison have style guidelines? It's pretty clear From the history of Saisons that there were never any such thing. I'm buzzing from 1 bomber of my Rye Farmhouse I should have eaten something today.

Yep. The upcoming guidelines have expanded even further since both light and dark variations are covered (previously dark saison was considered a 'Belgian Specialty').

I guess without style guidelines judges can't "judge" in a competition.

Exactly. Can't score something without a reference point.

Water.
 
Too much talky.

Smuttynose gravitation bomber. I've never seen so much yeast floating around in a store bought beer before. For what it's worth it says bottle conditioned in 2015(no specific date).
