This is the joke someone shared with me last night:
Where's the Irishman going on his vacation?
A different bar.
I bottled the beer last night that I brewed two weeks ago. It was fun. You drink the ones you mess up. It was very good fresh like that. Dortmunder is what we made. I recommend trying it some time. You end up with 6 cases (we split that between 4 couples).

Hi,
Just a little FYI.
The St. Patrick's Day Parade, "after party," will not be at the KC Hall this year. Sister Sarah's will be the proud sponsors of this event. So, come and join the fun!
Keep in mind, that your folks will not be back from Florida by then. Furthermore, Tom, I and the boys will be going to Minneapolis on the morning of March 18th.
Quite by accident- stop- I discovered that eggnogg-stop- was a wonderful substitute for milk -stop- when I make cherry/cranberry muffins-stop- Cable response Wickmore Terrace 331 -stop
How many "ones" did you have to drink because somehow the bottling process was "messed up" for some unknowable reason?
GEORGE W. BUSH PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY DESTROYED BY FLOOD. Crawford, Texas.
(AP)
A tragic flood this morning destroyed the personal library of President George W. Bush. The flood began in the presidential bathroom where the books were kept. Both books have been lost. A presidential spokesman said
the president was devastated, as he had almost finished coloring the second one. The White House tried to call FEMA but there was no answer.
they were supposed to end up with 10 cases....
Pat, save some of that beer to drink out of Emily's beer glasses when she lives in Mlps and cooks up some award-winning chili and I'll bring along some of my AWARD-WINNING Flattened Juice-free Groundhog Patties.
Hey Tom...I would appreciate it if next time you put a capital C on Commie! But, really "commie-fag"? I haven't heard that one since I was in Falls City, Nebraska. But, I do agree...what's with the Irish drinking joke...and the Irish don't speak in poorly constructed sentences, they saved sentence construction from invading Hessions so that we could struggle with it at the blackboard in elementary school.
I agree with you two. Though the Irish have come by their reputation for drinking honestly, that single characteristic is always unfairly emphasized. The Irish are not fully credited for their contributions to wife-beating and child support arrearages. They're also above average in runny noses and befuddlement and simply spectacular at wearing brown belts with brown shoes. They're real good at biting things (that's why they call their mother "Maw") are slow to comprehend, dull to contemplate, torpid,turgid and slow. Overall, an under-recognized race.
Algernon Swinburne, speaking of limp wrists, last of the romantic poets. and a switch hitter!
Uhg!
well, my doc just called. my mri was fine. my blood work was a mess. he thinks i have diabetes, so i'm trying to get into a primary care person. you'll know more when i know more.
Hey, I'd like to offer some "balanced" points of view from the military veterans of the family. Cowboys, should not be gay. (really, how tough can a gay cowboy be??) and you may hate Dubya but my Commander in Chief was a Democrat who may have been good at domestic economic policy and chummed around with foreign leaders a lot, but had a shitty defense track record. He let Osama go uncaptured, and refused to retaliate for terrorist attacks on American troops stationed at foreign embassies. The result? The terrorists decided we were all a bunch of wussies and attacked our civilians on our home turf. Oh yeah, and he was a slimy liar who cheated on his wife and said on national t.v. he didn't believe a blow job was sex. Teenagers today don't think oral sex is sex. The legacy of Clinton. By the way, during his presidency my payscale as an active duty service member sucked. I will not vote for Hillary, even though she is a woman.
Now that I've riled up all the hard-core leftists...
An Irish Catholic priest, a Polack, and a Mexican walk into a bar...oh, wait, that's my family. It must be another wedding.
Not so fast, Tom. I think that's going to have to be my job. If anybody's "fair & balanced" it's me, and the majority of the freaking United States Congress will tell you so. And they're important.
George loaned me one of those - what do you call them? - executive branch intelligence agencies. I don't remember which one, but they're snazzy dressers. I've had them monitoring phone calls, emails, blogs, etc. Usually when buzz words come up it just sends us an email about it. But when "fair and balanced," "commie-fag," "limpwristed," and hand-wringing" all came up in the same post alarms went off in the office.
I just thought I'd let you guys know I'll be keeping an eye on you, and I might even get Bill to do an investigative piece on the destructive nature of smart people with computers. He might give you hats.
Hey Frank...so sorry to hear it! Wow...love, Mary
Frank, that just sucks. Did he say anything about what type?
Monica
he's an ENT guy, he hasn't done primary physician stuff in a while. i'm going to the diabetes clinic Monday afternoon.
Did he give you any numbers, like blood glucose levels?
We won $1,000. last night! We were invited to a volunteer dinner for Creighton at Harrah's casino...great food, free booze, and then after more fun up in their party room. Mike and I decided to go into the casino (haven't been in years) we watched a lady win $1000 in a slot machine so we she got up we sat and put $5 in, on the last dollar we scored $750! Mike went back up to the party, I decided to stay and play $5 more in a quarter slot...and about 20 minutes later I won $250. We spent $10 and won $1000...free meal...free drinks...and then we got a free room for the night because Creighton had overbooked. It was a good night!
Frank~
Although you may be a bit,"bummed," at least you know what's going on and you can take care of it. You can do this...it's very manageable.
Good Luck, at the clinc, on Monday!
thanks Nance. yeah. sucks that i can't have any beers during the superbowl though. on the other hand, at least now i'll have an excuse for all the needles laying.
I found canned club soda at Whole Foods...it's like drinking a beer (almost) you can burp when you're done...and crunch the can! Zero carbs and zero calories. (I hope that's not the score of XL Big Game!) Here's to you Frank...slurp.
My prediction: Steelers pound the Seahawks in the first half, knocking Hasselbeck out just before halftime and going in with a 24 point lead. Second half-ISU alum Seneca Wallace leads the greatest comback in Superbowl history running and passing the Seahawks to a 49-42 victory.
I wish Seahawk Seneca could have played...it was fun watching him at Iowa State. It was a pretty good game, though...do you really think Bettis is done?
Also, I bet the play by play guys hate saying Roethlisberger really fast!
I love Joe 3's scenario. Wish it could have happened. Hey, we haven't heard from Jim (Steeler fan)yet. This would be a good time to drop in and try to say that the steelers didn't get all the breaks and dubious calls.
Who all's going to the St. Patrick's Day parade?
I think that I am going to the St. Pat's Day parade.
Tom and I are going!
Tom and I are going!
