    What beer are you drinking tonight? For the new forum...

    I've made my own beer from extract but add grain to it in the boil. Usually did 5 gallon batches and put them in Pepsi canisters. The problem, if that was what it was, was I had to drink it in a week because my next batch would be ready to keg. I gained 40 pounds that year... I've found it...

    Although it isn't night, a good beer doesn't need a particular time of day to be savored.

    Not as exciting as hiking in Greenland

    But I did a 13.6 mile hike yesterday in the Hickory Creek Wilderness Area in the Allegany National Forest in Pa. with two shod hikers. Supposed to have been a 6 hour 12 mile hike...ended up about 8 hours counting the time waiting for the forest service police officer to help get us out without...

    I gotta get a weather station at home. When I run, I use the temp and windchill from Dunkirk, NY - 500 feet lower than me and on Lake Erie. Today for my 5k it was 36/26...felt more like 33/18 to me. That wind had 10 miles of snow to cross before it got to me.

    Try bookmarking the spreadsheet again, and be sure to be on the first sheet "Enter Data". I had to recreate the first page, and that means that any old bookmarks go directly to the sheet called "Do NOT Use". It was used as a backup just in case I messed up the data. I use Chrome too. Note: The...

    Was wondering if you locked the input from the USA so you can keep your lead? I tried to put in my mileage for today and ... couldn't enter anything. - Google Chrome.
