Observations...

Here are a few random thoughts I have had in my shell of an empty brain the past few days...

- American Kobe or more commonly know as Wagyu is AWESOME!
- It stinks that 3D movies are so much more expensive than a regular 2D film. I boycott 3D whenever possible!
- Spiders scare the crap out of me! For real!!
- I have no confidence in the Washington Redskins this season! Will this be Joe Gibbs revisited?
- I am still trying to embrace my inner Facebook, but it is hard to believe I have anything interesting to say at all.
- Our Pug, Sushi the dog is very silly! He is so funny at times!
- I find cutting the grass strangely relaxing!
- I want to go deep sea fishing!
- I really need to start exercising and eating right again! Have been saying this for a while now.
- I am a closet astronomy junkie! Love looking up at the sky at night!
- Very dissapointed in the new Miller Lite "Vortex" bottle! Just another gimmick.

I guess that is all for now. Cheers!

Beer Beer Beer...

I am not a big drinker by any means if measured and compared to many other people. I have no moral objections to drinking except I would not recommend any person drinking and driving. I do enjoy ice cold beer after cutting grass, and I guess you could call me well informed about the science of wine. I rarely drink when we go out to eat.

With all of this said, I have found my new favorite beer. I am not a Bud guy or a Miller man; go for the speciality or micro brews because of the flavors and character they bring to the bottle or mug. My new favorite beer is Magic Hat #9 "not quite pale ale". This beef has a smooth bite and tons of character with apricot flavors finishing off this amazing beer. I first tasted this on tap at Three Little Pigs in Daleville and was just blown away. I did find the beer in bottles at the Towers Kroger but that is the only place I have looked for it. Am glad I found this on my first look.

As I said before, I am just not a big drinker but this beer is a pleasure to sip on these warm, late spring evenings. On another note about alcohol, we ate at a major chain a few weeks ago and had a pina colada and I would estimate there was ZERO rum in this drink. The wife is hyper sensitive to alcohol, usually feeling a buzz after just a few sips. She felt nothing after drinking just about the whole thing. I could not detect any presence of rum at all. I hate to name drop so I will just give a hint of which restaurant we ate at. It begins with "Red" and ends with "Lobster". Does that give it away?? I hate getting ripped off!!

Cheers!
