  1. Mead and head injuries go hand in hand.
  2. Hmmmmm, Corvettes cost $80,000
  3. Martin Haupt was the great uncle of Bill Bellichick: "Haupt’s father, Martin, taped the game. Haupt never knew him. Haupt and his mother, Beth Rebuck, say they have no idea what he did for a living back then. They also don’t know why he went to work on Jan. 15, 1967, with a pair of two-inch Scotch tapes, slipped one, and then the other, into a Quadruplex taping machine and recorded the Green Bay Packers’ 35-10 win over the Kansas City Chiefs. He told his family nothing about his day’s activity."
  4. So what??? "liquor, restaurants, bars, and...even strippers"...it's called "networking"
  5. Hopefully, Hamilton Ontario gets a team.
  6. Nice work Joe!!!! I knew your hard work would pay off. The nice thing is that they are rewarding you for using your Gmail account but you must reply to their Outlook address. These guys are obviously cutting edge, so I bet Outlook is the next big thing out there in the tech world. Season Tix here we come!!!!
  7. I would have no problem keeping Sanbornne and then drafting another long snapper just for field goals. Landise looks like a stud. We have plenty of roster spots and if it means we keep a long snapper for punts (Saneborn) and a long snapper for field goals (Landiss), I say go for it.
  8. Johnny Football could be Russ Brandon's "Mona Lisa".
  9. Not sure what you're responding to. That's a non-sequentialtor.
  10. I haven't seen it around Jack, have you? I'm somewhat surprised they don't have a bigger following....with the 16-20 year old population. <Private Message to Gugny> LOL. Hell no....the best part was you telling him it was your own IPA. <End Private Message to Gugny>
  11. This and This
  12. Haven't seen it...but if I do, I'll be sure to grab a 12.
  13. YESSSS!!!!! That's what we called it as well. Even pronounced it "Joebell"
  14. Well, I drank my share of Genesee Creamers in high school and there were no complaints. 16 ounce bottles ("Pounders"). Speaking of high school beer...any of you guys remember drinking Goebels Beer?
  15. There's a difference between being intelligent and having a lot of bull ****. The NY Bar Exam had quite a few essays....
  16. Maybe that's why Genesee is coming out with their "Winter Planetary Selection" of beers....my favorite is "Mercury Copperhead Ale"
  17. Is it deliberate?
  18. Should I be a Professional Beer Taster?You should have a high school degree or higher and share these traits: Team Player: You're able to listen, communicate, and work with tons of different people. (ummmmmm, No) Calm Under Pressure: You keep your cool when dealing with highly stressful situations. (ummmm, No) Levelheaded: You hold your emotions in check, even in tough situations. (lol, lol, lol)
  19. C'mon mannnn...Genny beer has that light, clean taste that is attributable to the water source used in their recipe...the headwaters of Onondaga Lake are what source this promising seasonal brew. It's just that this year's batch has that soft undercurrent of a fisher found in a trap in mid-October...almost like the aroma of dates and figs that have been dipped in a bottle of pickle juice. Come to think of it...it has hints of a plastic container full of rotting vegetables that someone might eat for lunch.
  20. ...on second thought, it has a hint of formaldehyde and a cherrywood afterbirth.
  21. I had some the other night...I usually buy 2 cases each winter. It had a skunky taste...almost like rotting wheat strewn across an icy road covered in vegetable oil used too long. It was a very unique taste and I'm not sure exactly how to describe it.
  22. http://reason.com/archives/2015/05/08/chipotle-claims-integrity-but-is-actuall In May 2014, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service issued its comprehensive report Pesticide Use in U.S. Agriculture, updating national herbicide and insecticide usage trends. The agency found that herbicide usage peaked at 478 million pounds in 1981—a decade and half prior to the introduction of the first biotech crop varieties—and fell to 394 million pounds in 2008. So instead of a massive increase in herbicide spraying, as claimed by Benbrook, the USDA actually reports a modest decline. Insecticide applications peaked in 1972 at 158 million pounds, dropping to 29 million pounds in 2008. It's worth noting that the insecticide DDT accounted for 11 percent of all agricultural pesticides used in 1972. Since biotech crops can protect themselves against insect pests, there is far less need for farmers to spray their crops. In November 2014, German researchers reviewed 147 agronomic studies and similarly reported that "on average, GM technology adoption has reduced chemical pesticide use by 37 percent, increased crop yields by 22 percent, and increased farmer profits by 68 percent." What really does cause damage to the environment? Growing low-yield crops, because that means more land must be plowed down instead of being left for nature. And organic farming generally produces lower yields than conventional farming. A 2012 review in the journal Nature found that "overall, organic yields are 25 percent lower than conventional yields."
  23. I always pictured you as barley or hops anyway.
