Hey... i'm around

HEY. still here. work busy. Football picks are a disgrace. I got KILLED this past weekend.  atleast the Falcons and the Bears won. 

more soon. i have a ton of beer and punk news. 

also i'm in the process of building stage 3 of the brewery. Full on Mash/Lauter Tun. 

Smuttynose IPA

SMUTTYNOSE FINDESTKIND IPA. A beer that may soon be here in GA. I got this is Delaware over the holidaze...and i'm drinking one now. Bitter... flowers... lack of head. It holds the taste thru the process of the drink. (ha... nice one huh?). I dunno if the head thing is my shitty glassware (a French Broad pint glass!) but it's still digging deep here into the palate minutes after. A lemon linger.

GRUNGE CORNER #1

SOUNDGARDEN'S "Hunted Down" BW "Nothing To Say" 45 June 1987 500 copies. Sub Pop Records.

Whatever that can be said of Soundgarden after the "success" hit, their 1986-90 output was great stuff. 3 parts Zeppelin, 2 parts Butthole Surfers and 1 loving part of sweet Sabbath, This 45 is a cherished part of my collection.

Lacking on the PICKs.

SORRY!

The holidaze had me away from the PC.

BUT... i was stoked the FALCONS won.

BUT... Bummed the Bears LOST

120 Minute IPA. The Slayer of IPA

Delaware. The First State. The Home of NO SALES TAX. Home to Joe Biden and great revolutionary war hero Cesar Rodney.

Screw all that cos it's also the home of the DOGFISH HEAD Brewery.

and the 120 Minute Imperial IPA.

at almost 20% ABV... it's the most hardest rocking beer you can imagine... like... um SLAYER!

Part of my visit to my home area.. the Delmarva Penninsula... I bought some back with me to the Peach State...

The Mid East Coaches Tour CURSE!

Well Damn. I went on a video shoot with my lil' HD Cam over the summer. Following 5 NCAA coaches on a meet and greet tour with the US Troops in UAE/Bahrain/Qatar and aboard the USS Nassau in the Persian Gulf. It was a great experience and I shot some pretty compelling images during the trip. It was awesome for me...as a photojournalist....it was great for the troops.... being able to get autographs with the likes of Charlie Weis... Mark Richt... and (seen above) Tommy Tuberville. Now.. the bad part... the seasons for the coaches who went on the trip has been less than stellar. In some cases... almost job ending.

1. Charlie Weis. Lord... it has been HELLISH in the Irish camp.
2. Mark Richt. beat by Alabama. Florida and GA Tech. Not a great season for a team that entered the BCS at number 1
3. Tommy Tuberville. after holding up SEVEN fingers... (see pic above) to mike light of a flag football victory in the Middle East...(the image above is from my video)... He gets killed by 'Bama in the Iron Bowl...
4. Yale's Jack Sieldecki.... loses the biggest game of the year to Harvard
5. Randy Shannon is coming off ok... with a ton of losses... even to GA Tech.

wow.

Curses are REAL!
