hold on sec…is this free??

No cover, No tickets, No samples, No Flights, No growlers, No bottle sales, No Exceptions!
This is a night to celebrate, have fun, hang out and enjoy some great brews.

free to get in, but you need to buy your pints (and they'll only be selling full pours).

and agreed - sounds damn amazing.

Would love to go to  Ocelot and do that. Would make for a hellish cab ride back home tho.

in case you're looking for something in the city, or something on sunday:

I've given up liquor, for no apparent reason.  Perhaps we should trade our respective stashes.

the 120 minutes that I have been storing, will make me cry.

huh? You were just buying beer and storing it in the yard??? what happened?


no need to make hasty decision you might regret… give it a month…


you do realize you're looking at a sober thanksgiving, right??

Thnaksgiving is for wine.

i have to give up all alcohol, period.  not because i want to, or because i have a problem . . . but because i have to.  my doctor is putting his foot down.  i bought all that beer because i was going to store it for years, in thought that i could drink 1 or 2 here and there, in the future.

and now, i will use the bitterness of this, forever, to fucking make a point in sub,reality with my fictional novel writings.  one way to motivate someone to finally get the fucking job done and to get their fucking act together, is to fucking take away all their vices and watch them use it to their fucking advantage.

the, fucking, end.

that sounded, very, very angry . . . and I'm sorry.  it just really hit me hard, not that I cannot drink alcohol for the rest of my life, or even smoke pot if I ever wanted to, but rather that now, I have something or someone controlling me; making my decisions for me, without a care or a whim if I have an opinion about said control.

I know, it is the best for me; I just needed to vent that out there into the ethos . . . and indeed, it felt good to do it.

the end, again.

well i wish you all the best healthwise..

oh well…more money for everything else.. Its amazing how much money I would save if I did not drink.. I'd probably own a Ferrari or something…

anyone else notice how they keep up jacking up beer prices???

I blame InBev… those foreign fucks..

i have a love hate relationship with alcohol.. i like to drink but its very fattening and costs a lot of money….

i've made some stabs at giving it up alltogether but non has stuck more than a few months…. i doubt i could ever give up wine with meat for example.. or beer with wings…or even beer with rock shows….they just go together for me… and my life ain't that great so beer ain't exactly a huge problem….

At Hardywood waiting for release of Trickery and Cassowary.  Come say if anyone else is here, I'm the person waiting in the long ass line.
