Out of the blue the new Mr. Beer folks locked out all mods and admins and the site was gone maybe a week after that.

Are you still a restaurant manager, Mr. Bill, or has some new position given you more time to brew?

Still GM at Dennys...but figured I better get back into it and take time.
My girlfriend really pushed me as she was totally stoked about brewing.

A lot came from MBF but fewer post regularly. Off hand, BP, Pudge, Whammo, MrBandGuy, RayF, and Herb. Sure I'm missing somebody. Jon has been scarce. Mammy has been MIA.
If you wanna say hi to anyone check the members and shoot them a PM. I'm sure they'd be glad to hear from you.

I guess this is fitting...Mr. Beer left us and tonight I finally cut all ties to them...
no more little brown keg even for AG.
Finally stepped up to a pickle bucket, glass bottles :o ( no more Dew PETS) Stainless wort chiller ( how did I do 30 batches of beer without one)
Wow I guess there is hope for me after all :D
