Can you believe it? :wacko: It's not that I want to be at work, mind you. What are the sayings? "Hate the job, like the paycheck" and "Any port in a storm" come to mind. It's just that it's 1:30pm EST as I write this. I'll leave the office around 4pm today and when I get home, it will be...

I was reading this today (What Does Your Drink Say About You?), and it got me wondering a bit.... What do you think the next trendy drink will be? I mean, I can remember when the tequila craze was wiping out the agave fields, that's given rise to the whole vodka thing (with people making...

Got home from work, and within 10 minutes of getting home, I'm looking at this.... (It also punched out the side window) What a start to the weekend!

(Or seen) Georgia Moon Corn Wiskey? I have a "bottle" of it (It's bottled in "canning" jars) that we bought as a gag decoration. Now it's fairly available in our area and I'm wondering if anyone has ever tried drinking the stuff? We bought it in 2003 (?) for about $10 (US). The label states...

Hi All, I guess this technically could be considered an alcoholic beverage question, so if the mods think it belongs there, feel free to move it. :wink: I'm looking to create a drink that captures the "spirit and flavors" of a mai tai. the thing is, I'm not looking to MAKE a mai tai. I'm...

Here in Detroit, that means it's Paczki day!!!! Mmmmm..... 500 calorie donuts loaded with saturated fat...... <Insert Homer Simpson drooling sound here> :angel: John

Now, I just want to post this for the sheer entertainment of reading it. It's by Anthony Bourdain. Just say whether or not you liked it, don't debate the folks he mentions! :cool: ruhlman.com: Guest Blogging: A Bourdain Throwdown Also, has anyone seen the show they made based on their...

Warning! If any of you get the nasty cold/flu bug that's going around, be prepared! It is *awful*! I missed two striaght days of work earlier this week (The first time I have EVER missed two days in a row being sick). The folks here are the office were shocked when Tuesday came and I called...

Going to be gone for a few days starting tomorrow. We're heading to a ski resort in northern Michigan for some R&R. After being on the go since before the holidays, I'm not looking forward to the drive but I am certainly going to enjoy the time off! We've got all the important stuff packed up...

I don't know what's going on with me and this time of year the last two years, but it's official.. I'm hurt again. :mad: The whole back of my leg is brusied up again! :cool: Last year you may remeber there was the slight issue with having to get part of a finger sewn back on at...

Hi All, I feel horrible about this. I had gotten an email through the site from a brewer looking for a clone recipe for Terrapin. I was sick last weekend so didn't really spend any time on the PC. When I went to check for it this week, the email is gone. I had a few issues with outlook, and...

Hop fire! This is Bad!!! My first reaction to this story was: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/10/03/hops.fire.ap/index.html YAKIMA, Washington (AP) -- Federal investigators were set Tuesday to begin an investigation into a fire...

Free copy of "The Nasty Bits". http://msnamstel.onlinepromo.com/ You do have to be 21, and a US resident, but it looks like it's VOID in California. John

The temperatures have dropped, and some of the leaves have started to turn. And I've gotten into the stash of 2004 Bigfoot Barleywine! Despite the name, it's actually a beer. This particular version is brewed to 9.6% alcohol (some go even higher), hence the "wine" in the name. It's a...

We were at a Mexican restaurant last weekend, and a waitress walked by with a plate of fajitas. As they sizzled away, leaving a woderful aroma of smoke behind, I made a comment that I considered fajitas to be one of the ultimate letdown foods. I was forced to explain my theory that no matter...

Hi All!! I'm not dead!! (Notice that there were no reports of a decline in beer sales...) I'm just swamped with work both at the office and at home. We did sneak out for a week vacation up in Nothern Michigan (That would be the U.P. to the locals), and it was a very relaxing (although...

What's the strangest/weirdest beer you've ever had? For the sake of good taste, I'll leave the 'extreme' beers Larry Bell of Kalamazoo Brewing Company made for the National Hombrewer's Conference in Chicago a few years back out of this. Let's just say there were ingredients in those beers that...
