You should tell people it's solar wind. It's blowing outward from the sun all the time, but because it's photons, we don't feel it, but because RF waves are so light, they are blown about all the time.

Fucking sunspots.

My doctor said I looked like I lost weight, so that made me feel good, despite feeling I am the most out-of-shape I've ever been, short of the early oughts (in which I had CFS). So I asked her to check to see if my thyroid was flaring up again (which would also explain the crankiness). No, I didn't mention the beer, but I just suggested that I shouldn't be losing weight, considering, amongst other things, that I'm not even exercising.

Ah, didn't know about the 'jesusphone' moniker. Makes more sense now.

'Judasphone'? Wouldn't Achilles be a more apt reference point?

Yeah, because once you go unicorn, you never go back.

You should like Devo more (just because they're so cool and subversive), but I'm glad you wore the T-shirt.

I'm not sure what I would've done in that situation. I would have wanted to do some clever reference to something he's done, but probably would have just stammered, awestruck. He's a god. I probably would've looked to see who he was with, considering he was married to Connie Booth. Oh, and me: part way through Sanshiro Sugata (aka Judo Saga). Really too bad about the missing footage.

Mebbe you're cold-blooded?

At first, I was like, "whu?", but then I realized: branding. In real life, I am less Vader, and more this guy: some hapless bastard

I said, "fuck it", and drove to Delaware. 3 hours out, hour or so for dinner, hour more or so to sober up, 3 hours back -- yeah, that's my kind of 8 hour day. I think I listened to Pain of Salvation the entire time, but there might have been some Andromeda and Guilt Machine thrown in there. Also, I think I found Pain of Salvation's greatest song:

Actually, she was great in that -- I didn't think she'd be able to pull off comedy, but she was awesome. Also, it wasn't subversive enough. I really liked what little subversion they had, but wish they had gone completely overboard with it. But then again, it wouldn't have been British if they didn't show restraint. No, wait, that doesn't explain Fawlty Towers.

Nice, thanks for posting. I never thought I could enjoy beer vicariously, but I think I just did. Cheers!

Awesome.

84 -- yeah, we're spoiled...boss doesn't want to listen to us whine (That's 84 inside)

I just got sent home (air conditioner broke again).

Noted. And not really new information. (So please don't feel the need to bite your tongue in the future.) I can do that with the small bottles -- and do -- but the larger bottles take 2 or 3 glasses to finish. I do try and and minimize the time from open to finish, unless it's one that's really difficult to drink for whatever reason (Tokio* [high alcohol content], Peculiar Yule [just...peculiar], Night Stalker [off-ish], etc.), but I...uh...I've already developed a taste for flatter beer. :\ The Night Stalker is actually the first one that's actually been too flat even for my tastes.

And we lose another one. Congrats.
