Random Thoughts

Last night I found out a few interesting things while having some beers downtown at the brewery.

• Not everyone goes out for drinks on their birthday. I had been invited to come have birthday drinks at the brewery for a friend. It rained out their softball game and that apparently cancels the party. I'd think that would allow extra time for drinks and celebration at the bar with friends, but no. I can only assume there was relaxing hair-braiding for hours last night while Sarah McLachlan played softly in the background.
  


• One of the authors has a puking problem. Maybe this is what he does in all his spare time while not writing for the blog. Hell, I can't think of a better topic to blog about on a drinking blog. The only place it would be a better fit is on a puking blog. Is there a "pukingknoxville" blog out there I don't know about? A note from Garth of Wayne's World: "If you're going to spew, spew in this"
  
• Lortabs and IPA go together really well. Really, really well. Usually a 4 or 5 "IPA dinner" is enough to sate me for the evening, and still is. But add some pharmaceuticals to the mix and you've gots yo-self a narcotic cocktail of splendid delight! It almost makes me wish I could go to the dentist more often to rack up on these treats. I don't think the agonizing 2 hours in the dentist chair is a fair trade-off though.
