From Bass Lake Ale to Fox Hole Ale?

The brewing arm of TWW Enterprises has its first batch of ale in process but it won't ferment so it may become Fox Hole Ale as we dump it down an unoccupied foxhole. We are reserving the Bass Lake Ale label for something that ferments and becomes drinkable. Perhaps moving the wort to a warmer location will help the yeast get growing again but we are afraid oversanitation may have killed off the yeast prematurely.

Export and Plumber's bowls

Above three bowls destined for Costa Rico and below one bowl specially made for a plumber who is helping with the family cabin. The plumber's crack is not visible but is there.

Quote of the day

Bloomber news is saying "Edward E. Whitacre Jr. built AT&T Inc. into the biggest U.S. provider of telephone service over a 43-year-career.......“I don’t know anything about cars,” Whitacre, 67, said yesterday in an interview after his appointment."

This is the guy Government Motors appointed to be the chairman of the board.

Retirement present (finally....)

First you need to heat the malt cans so the malt runs loosely with hot water.















Heating the wort means the flame has to keep burning rather than having the wind blow it out so you do what you can.

















Once you boil it for 90 minutes you cool it off.








Finally, you put it in the closet and hope.












When it starts bubbling you take more pics.

Blogger Policy Change

Before the election last year TWW decided the correct abbreviation for then candidate Obama must be BO since if you used his middle name it was racist, sexist, homophobe, etc. While in Europe President BO used his middle name in a speech so it must be OK now to use it so from now on it is President BHO rather than President BO. It sounds much better.

The eyes have it

Sam old same old

More frost but you must be tired of seeing pictures of it.

For life enrichment order free stuff

There was an ad in the local electric coop newsletter for free stuff. TWW ordered a load and it smelled so good he ordered another (not seen here). Mr. BANANA came over and thought the stuff smelled so good he was going to order some too.

Another life enrichment activity NOT

Another new form of life enrichment

For life enrichment in summertime on Garbin Moraine

we watch the ice melt in the morning.

Global warming or natural variability?

Garbin Moraine had its second frost in three days overnight and more is predicted for tonight.

Renters out of the cabin

It's a good thing liberals drive little cars

If someone put this bumper sticker on their car they don't have as much to worry about as the bumper stickers that irritate the people in BIG SUVs.

For life enrichment install a IIPS

To prevent needless trips to see Dr. McGillicuddy the TWWs decided to install a custom-made Inebriated In-law Protection System (IPSS) today. It is not sexy but should do the job.

The sheeple have spoken: we love BO (it is his policies we don' quite get)

"It must be said, that like the breaking of a great dam, the American decent into Marxism is happening with breath taking speed, against the back drop of a passive, hapless sheeple, excuse me dear reader, I meant people."
