I must be losing my mind…taking on all this technology in a matter of two weeks. I’m definitely losing bits and pieces of it in the process. The rumors are true. Not only am I a Facebook Friend but I’m sending Tweets on
Twitter.If it all sounds like a foreign language, don’t beat yourself up. It’s all part of this thing they call “social networking” and it’s evolving as we speak. In fact, hold on a minute while I send a Tweet to my Twitter friends that I’m writing a blog.
It’s a balancing act, figuring out what information is relevant enough to share with strangers and what’s a blatant waste of time and energy. The same goes for reading what others put out in to the social networking world. But like it or not, it’s how a lot of people are communicating these days. And since I’m in the communication business, I’m on board. I’ll keep you posted on how the trip goes.
"In Heaven there is no beer…"Sing a long if you know the words. If you don’t you had better make a trip or two to
Nye’s on
Friday or Saturday nights.The rest of the song goes: "...that’s why we drink it here."
Well, some colleagues and friends and I have been making our preparations for the pearly gates the last couple of weeks. As you saw a couple of blogs ago, we brewed our own beer at
Vine Park Brewing Company in St. Paul two weeks ago. Last night we found out how we did when we went back to bottle our brew.
It’s harder work than it looks. You get 72 24-ounce bottles for your $150, and that’s a lot of bottling and labeling when you made four batches! I’m happy to report that our brews turned out fine. Not sure if I’m so happy to report that we were working so hard, we really didn’t need the services of the designated driver we brought along. But that was good thing when I got up early this morning. And I was able to fully appreciate the pride I felt when I saw the cases of St. Paul home-brew in my basement just waiting for a spring barbecue. Come on sunshine!
