Beer News

In the wide, wide world of possibilities and predicaments, who'd a thunk that Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson, the Charlie's Angel and the King of Pop, would exit this plane of wrath and sorrow on the same day? And on a completely different note, this is the third night in a row (unheard of!) that I have been out drinking. In conjunction with this, Fat Tire beer is now on tap in South Dakota! Blessed be. Also, this has already been one hell of a week. In the workplace arena, my department was asked to volunteer a no pay furlough til September 1 or a reduction of hours until the same date, and two very capable, very hardworking co-workers were fired (or downsized or let go, choose your favorite euphemism) today. My potential love life is in the toilet (I get knocked down, but I get up again!). And yet, in the face of all this despair, I remain optimistic, resolute, and happy. I'm not just waiting for the times to get better, I'm ready to participate fully in making them better. Oh, and I made our server blush last night. I've still got it. Hope you're getting it, too. And even though my actual calendar birthday is two weeks from today, the celebration has begun.
