I think there's one thing that we can all agree on in these crazy, mixed-up, ring-a-ding times that we are living in, and that's the value of a good, honest pint.
Pulled by a real pro.
This guy is a cask manager at a British pub. Raising a pint is his job.
RIP!Wow, Safeway is being surprisingly responsive. They have currently passed the buck to some California grocer's assn, but at least they are getting back to me, and they answered my complaint email, too, and asked for more information on what stores I'm talking about. It seems like the (short) article might become real for the April MM issue (earth day-related).
How about this wind, huh? A tree crushed a house like two blocks from mine. I couldn't sleep because of constant dreams of the ceiling falling in, etc. It's kind of fun to have real weather for once.

You know that seems to be the one that I have had stuck in my head the longest too.
ReplyDeleteIf that show or really even just reading the set list doesn't make you happy to live in Sac then apparently you are some sort of robot.
