Steroids? Steroids!

I'm having some problems with a new brew. I can not think of a label. It's an Indian Brown that is GREAT so you would think it would not be a major brain cramp but . . . . .

My next brew will be a Karankawa Pale Ale which is aggressively hopped with 5 oz of Sorachi ace, Cluster, and Sterling hops and I'll put some aside for aduba. Karankawa is/was a cannibalistic Indian tribe located in Texas. But, but, I feel cannibalism has really gotten a bad rap over the years. its not like they ate ALL people. Only the people they conquered and it was suppose to be an honor to be eaten by them.

So this Pale Ale is an in your face hoppy beer with Sorachi ace, Cluster, and Sterling hops. At least in theory it'll be hoppy.

Cute baby alert.

Here is a photo from Jenny of Caydence with her first pony tails.

Break out the sweaters it's gonna get warm. In fact the Weather Channel has us going from "0 Very Poor" golf weather up to "3 Poor" on Thursday. The average low for the next 10 days will be ABOVE our typical average High. SWEET!! The last time we were above freezing was Christmas Day. BRING IT!!

January 12, 1888 - the great School Children Blizzard occurred in Nebraska as 235 children were caught in the blizzard with some accounts saying the temperature dropped 100 degrees from the 60's to -40 in one day. Reports were that some people, even only 90 yards from a safe building could not make it and became lost.

In Great Plains, South Dakota, the children were rescued. Two men tied a rope to the closest house, and headed for the school. There, they tied off the other end of the rope, and led the children to safety.

The storm is still considered one of the worst blizzards in the history of the area.

Mark McGwire - Steroids? Steroids! Who knew!! I remember trading all of my Canseco baseball cards to some kid for Mark McGwire cards. Then I traded all of those card for a ton of Ken Griffy Jr. cards.

That kid is probably 6'8 340 pounds now and angry!!

Have a great day.
