Ask away!

Post by jivex5k »

I just wanted to make this thread to encourage anyone with questions to ask away no matter how big or small.

Will the bald spot on the top of my head ever go away?
Why is summer so hot?
Do these shoes make my ass look big? :evil:

I feel better now.

Seriously, I think this forum has reared it's head at the perfect time. I can already see it's just as friendly as Mr. Beer's forum. I hope we can still share our brew days, questions, and just silliness here too.

1. Yes, with Ronco's super hair in a can.
2. Because winter is so cold.
3. No, not wearing pants makes your ass look big.

Hope I helped clear up those questions for you. :lol: ;)

I'm not getting a toupe.
My A/C is running most of the day costing me $$$$
And I have no shoes to match my purse.

Kind words Jim but I am just a regular guy who just has been lucky with brewing the last few years. My early brew life late in college and early in marriage was lots of learning the hard way. The years of reading helped but the quality of ingredients and the many tools available to use brewers have saved my ass more times than I can count.

Saying this, I'm due for a big dud or infection (shhhh, don't say that out loud) but we all think our beers are good or we wouldn't make them.

I appreciate all the knowledge and friendship here and the other forum.

Well, eh...not quite the questions I imagined but I said anything so...

1. Yes, when it is no longer a spot.
2. This worries me, you are not drinking enough beer to keep you cool in the summer. I recommend 24 ounces of wheat ale every day in the summer, minimum.
3. No, your ass makes your ass look big. Your shoes make it look fashionable.

Ok..now the hard one.....

Woodchuck would chuck......seventeen.

Don't worry bout the bald spot, shave the whole head, it's the latest trend.
Summer is hot because, well, need the heat to grow the skeeters big.
Get bigger shoes like mine, my ass is huge.

I believe that is Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything. But it could answer the woodchuck question as well.

I want to know if a dog's mouth is really cleaner than a human's?

Uh... I've seen, even my new dog, eat poop, his own, chicken, turkey, any poop they can eat. No way a dog's mouth is cleaner than a humans, or should say, mine. I don't eat as much poop as the dog.
