Temptation, lo these many months at the homebrew shop. $13.99 – an ale pail with grommeted top. Each time I somehow passed you by on my way to shop. Always knowing I would give in ‘pon some future stop. Your lid, so tight! Your color, so white! Neither stubborn yellow stain nor spot of mold […] I watched the Fishsticks episode of South Park today, and felt like maybe I was missing something. Is there some reason Kanye West wouldn’t understand a simple joke? I didn’t actually know anything about him except for the Hurricane Katrina thing. Is he notoriously stupid, notoriously bad with wordplay, or just a notorious douche? Turns […] There are few things as satisfying as a homemade beer. This page should serve as a comprehensive introduction to the brewing process. While John Palmer’s outstanding How to Brew is undeniably useful, its length can be off-putting for someone who wants to dip his toe into the hobby.

Strange things happen to a man when he staggers down a hallway at three in the morning, bleeding and damn near naked, and unexpectedly encounters an officer of the […] I saw Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith yesterday, and figured I’d share my pain. ANAKIN: Hello, I am Hayden… I mean, Anakin Skywalker. I’m sorry that your boyfriend dragged you to this movie, but look how pretty my hair is. In about an hour there will be some awkward romantic dialogue, so […] If you’ve ever had a job, you’ve probably noticed that your employer likes to segregate your time into Work, which, according to my boss, is defined as “whatever the hell I tell you to do,” and Not Work, somewhat more loosely defined to be things you can do while drinking beer. My current job is […] |
