Holy shit that's awesome. You must wear it at the next meetup, palsy or not.

Yeah, the old fart thing reminded me that my avatar was becoming one itself.

Not everyone gets to be as awesome as you, Steve.

Hey now, I actually had Lincoln Logs when I was a kid and even played with them too! Don't gotta be an old fart to play with some wood.

Haha he's adorable! Congrats Al, welcome home Nitro.

Happy birfday Jacob!

Happy new years Head-Case!

DFH 120 minute. This is what I'll be cheering 2012 to.

Big Hurt Beer. A joke from my friend Dan. Its honestly not as terrible as it could be.

Firestone Walker 15th Anniversary. Seems better tonight than it did the first time I had it.

N Upland Teddy Bear Kisses. Thanks Jeff!

The Bruery 4 Calling Birds. Hooray for belated Christmas beer! --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=41.916571,-87.634975

Starting with Jester King Wytchmaker Rye IPA. This has the most carbonation of any brew I've ever seen. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=41.916889,-87.635202

Jesus, Mikey you ain't fucking around today! I'll be joining in around 8 pm CT.

How is it Jeff? Good to see another offering I can check out when I visit my sister.

Yay, congrats Ric!

Mike, come to Oak Park, I have plenty to share .

FFF Alpha Klaus because I can't wait until tomorrow night to dig into some brews.

Bad Elf English Pale Ale in my new Cantillon flute. The beer kinda sucks but the glass is awesome, will probably be buying a few more.

Dogfish Head Faithfull Ale, in a Bruery tulip. Both of these were gifts from Allison that I opened this morning, along with four other bottles, another Bruery tulip, and a Bruery shirt.

Happy holidays everyone!

Just submitted my third pc-related RMA. Samsung exchanged a backup harddrive. Corsair upgraded me to a better power supply. Hoping for the same from EVGA on my 8800GTS that is pulling an error code on Windows now. It's painfully obvious that the desktop is nearing its end. Luckily, the RMA's are helping me prepare for the inevitable switch to a new motherboard and cpu and possibly a new HTPC setup altogether.

So sorry for your loss Mike. Will be wishing your family the best.

Damn, so glad to hear you're *relatively* okay Mike, Allison noticed your post on FB and immediately asked me about it, which of course led me to this thread. Let me know if you need anything. Take care brother.

So sorry Chris, I'm very glad you got to see him. Thinking of you and your family.
