Just average day for me... getting quoted in the Wall Street JournalBeen a long week dealing with all the on-call hassles. Glad it's over. Gonna brew again this weekend. I'm experimenting with using some crushed up dry roasted peanuts in the mash for a nutty flavor. Not much else going on. Bought a book on Glycemic Load based diets. Not diet in ( Read more... )

03:24 Monday morning.... no reason to be awake other than I am on-call for work and got paged 10 minutes ago. Not that I could do anything about the message I got paged with.

Last night we watched a short documentary called Whole about people who want to amputate a part of their ( Read more... )

I really have nothing to report lately. Jut lots of sweating as it has been extra humid, especially for SD. I bailed on the "appreciation" dinner I was suppose to attend Thursday night after work for the last project I was on.
