I'm really interested in brewing Stouts and Ales, but mixing in oak chips that were soaked in bourbon. (I can't afford barrels)
JDubb finished on a canadian blonde. :high5:

I am 5'7" and I have had some of the problems. Like the knees not fitting under the desk.

They claim the reason for no seat belts has to do with the seat height and design. Have any of you sat on a school bus recently? I went to a craft show during Christmas and they used buses to shuttle from location to location. I felt like a friggin giant on that bus.

Ooh... that would have saved me from ruining many of my shirts. I would get holes in them.

I drank the blond over the weekend. It tasted great but hardly any carbonation. I hope it comes in soon.

It is kinda counter productive when you are trying to teach your children to always wear a seat belt.
Always thought out was weird that I had to wear a seat belt on a plane but not on a bus that is far more likely to crash!

I always found it strange that the bus drivers I had were the most likely to be drug addicts of anyone I had interaction with at school.
It was all of my Creative Writing and Lit teachers who were the stoners. By the time my youngest sister was in high school, I realized how many of my teacher were smoking dope regularly.

Have you been doing the couponing thing? I've gotten it to help me a bit. I am no where near Paul's insanity yet.

I'd feel bad for you if I actually owned stock in anything.
Will mortgage companies give a one time payment deferral? I could really use a skip on March's payment.
It doesn't hurt to ask them. My credit union was great when I lost my job and I need to skip a couple car payments. I just paid the interest, but they let me actually skip 3 payments and I could have negotiated more if needed.

Holy shit, you should see Paul's stock. He was showing me pictures of everything he has. He has a WALL OF SHAMPOO. I'm blown away by how he spends $0.17 and get's $1900 worth of stuff.

There are 3 options for the medical benefits, we did the one with the highest deductions & lowest deductible. everything is covered 100% after $500 deductible. Also most of my paycheck is gone!
The one were the deductions are the lowest has a $2,000 deductible & everything is covered 80% after the deductible is met
Also should note, no lab/x-rays/scans are covered on any plan
Which plan would you have done?
Ugh. I hate dealing with insurance. Before the pregnancy, I would go with the middle of the road plan from what I was offered. It just depended on how much it was going to cost me. I generally am healthy and only need the preventative stuff, which Obama has required insurance companies to include without copays and deductibles (I learned that from working at that insurance company).
