Guess that means that farts are the fires of Mount Doom…
ugh.
I want to brew more beer soon. The wish list is a French Biere de Garde, a Belgian Saison, and a Toasted Coconut Porter.
Too bad the budget does not allow for this for another couple of weeks. I has a sad.
But it looks like I’m going to make some lemon wine (aka really hard lemonade) this weekend that should be ready to drink (and at 10% abv) in about two or three weeks.
Oh, and I also learned that I can keg and dispense mixed drinks. So, a 5 gallon bourbon and coke will be on tap before long.
What’s on tap:
1. Brick Top IPA (7.6% abv)
2. Hefeweizen (6% abv)
3. empty
Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care how devout you have been, but will welcome you based on the virtues you have lived by. If there are gods, but unjust, then you should not want to worship them. If there are no gods, then you will be gone, but will have lived a noble life that will live on in the memories of your loved ones.

NERDS OF AMERICA:
We were once a country that made things: giantmetal cars, Hoover Dams, non-AutoTuned popular music.
But now we are stuck in an economy in limbo, surrounded by our Internets, our hipsters and our arguing politicians.
Nerds, I have a great idea to make America great…
typical.
totally forgot about this thing…
Umm… got married. And I make beer now. Those are the big points since I last posted anything.
The Definitive List: Songs I Should Have Listened To This Morning
It’s another “glorious” Wednesday. The only things keeping me from typing mojunnbyimbypfkgkpppnrirtbmobpppppppppppppppppp with my forehead are my coffee [which seems to finally be pulling its weight (and it’s mainly water weight at that)] and the community printer in my office that startles me awake every few minutes.
It didn’t have to be like this. I could have started this morning off the right way. And you know me… I do everything with music and the creation of a purposed playlist.
So, having said all of that, here are the songs that I should have used to guide me from the bed to the desk:
1) Kanye West - Good Morning
The title alone is reason enough. It also happens to be really catchy. Plus my honky-hipster cred would be revoked if KW wasn’t on a playlist that I posted on ye olde interweb.
2) The Arcade Fire - Wake Up
Pretty much see the above. Feasibly, one could substitute this for the Kanye track, being that they were chosen for the exact same reasons…but I’m an American. Why not have both? With a diet coke, though. I’m watching my figure.
3) Howard Jones - Things Can Only Get Better
It’s impossible to be in a bad mood after hearing this song. The clouds part. The sun shines brighter. Jeebus himself pats you on the back. I would post a link, but html and I aren’t getting along at present.
4) Joe Esposito - You’re The Best
Yep. It’s that song from The Karate Kid. I find it to be a great song to listen to while brushing my teeth and shaving. It’s like a big bowl of Wheaties for the soul. Bonus points for singing along with your mouth full of toothpaste foam.
5) Andrew W.K. - Party Hard
This one really doesn’t need any explanation. Perhaps I need more white ensembles in my wardrobe.
