....WTF are schools teaching these days? I learned this stuff in grade 9... :crazy:
Why do you think I mentioned that?...I was being diplomatic ;)

You shortened my comment on that, which took it out of context with what I was saying.

That comment wasn't directed at you. ;)
At Alexander Keith's we follow the recipes first developed by the great brewmaster to the absolute letter. :wtf:

I was trying to find a disappointed emoticon.

This one will have to do. Looks like he's disappointed and gone off to take it out on a burger. :flippindude:

Didn't realize it was Cheesehead who had started it. Love your email address though!

Yessir! We're still trying to figure out how he did all of those interviews solo! Brewers obviously have much more important things to do than answer questions from some random beer nerd, something we are constantly reminded by as we try to pry information from them.

I didn’t know your blog existed. I haven’t had time to get into it yet but I’m going to, and it looks like just what I was looking for. Thanks.
I don’t suppose Jimmy and you would have any interest in tying your blog in with this site? Perhaps a clickable banner/link on the home page maybe? Or was it just me who didn’t know about it.

I think I understand some of the subliminal messages in the posts of this thread now.

Wow, thanks Todd - I watched the whole thing :thumbup: I don't get too hung up on 'polish' as long as it comes off as 'natural' and feels like its your own words, which (IMO) this did.
