I know what I said but if she just went with the people I normally go with I would have never had the trouble. I would be running a DMF and not a SMF. But, now I got the final part done I can move on.

Which oddly was the water pump that went out.

Do me a favor....next time you see someone who works at the brewery, tell them an ol' dawg in Texas sends his sincere thanks for their efforts. And not just the Fat Tire....I'm flying a Mothership at the moment.

You guys should see what new belgium brewing does at lunch time, EVERYONE gets on a a bicycle and rides around town..pretty much every day. I did some Private investigation work at that location and I was unprepared for that part of it..
Very cool. I've got a buddy that says Blue Moon is his favorite....gotta try one of those as well.

Speaking of which, I gotta run to the store soon and stock back up....in case a water pump goes out or something.

Fat Tire is good stuff. First time I got it I was going
over to a buddy's place to make spring straps for my
SCUBA fins, and he's a serious bicyclist (REALLY serious,
spent three months in a coma after a crash on a road
ride by himself) and I thought it would be fun to bring
him something.

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale and Alaskan Amber are good too.
Sam Adams is OK, Red Tail is OK.

On a REALLY hot day, Coors almost frozen does it. You
can get beer colder if you put in the back of the
refrigerator just under where the cold air comes in.

You right coasters should do a little web surfing. It
might turn up a local source. And the good beers
can't all be out west (OK, Sam Adams).

Went through the left rear drum brake on the Pathfinder
tonight. Two beer job, shoulda been one beer, but I
was going over everything twice because it picked up a
nasty but VERY intermittent squeal after I pulled the
drums a couple of weeks ago to check the shoes
(original shoes are fine after 185K miles).
