    Good morning, all! Christmas may be over, but the Christmas beers still abound. This is Prairie Seasick Crocodile, a sour ale brewed with cranberries, ginger, cinnamon, and nutmeg. This is delicious. Think dry cranberry and apple soda, mulled with a triple dose of the aforementioned spices and maybe a piece or two of dried orange rind. Fruity tartness on the finish, with cinnamon bark tannins, fresh-grated nutmeg astringency, and plenty of ginger heat. Cheers!

    Good day BAs! Starting of this hazy morning with today's New Breakfast Beer:

    Excellent brew from a brewer never seen around these parts - I've picked up their brews in cross-border trades or purchased in MD or TX. An additional benefit:

    OK - who knows why the repeat picture or why I can't delete it? Anyway, the helpful rear label is shown - too bad the bottle has no bottling date so the "Aging Potential" would actually mean something.

    Have a good Friday. 2 more days then Sunday/Monday off for once. I had 2 microwave gyros from lunch last night. Put relish, chopped onion pack, salsa, and tzatziki on there. It was delicious.

    I decided I am going to get F spaced Dimarzio pickups for my strat. Going to order online today with the HSH pickguard. Same pair that John Petrucci uses. Also will get a push pull pot and rewire it according to this diagram. Got my dad to drop off his soldering iron and some solder. I might fix my amp now too, some bad noise in there, probably a capacitor blew.

    Year round Go-To DIPA for sure.

    I listened to Aerosmith Radio on Spotify last night, good mix of stuff.

    This morning I came across the craziest story of this week. The AP has reported the last known United States Civil War widow, Helen Viola Jackson, passed away on December 16, 2020 in a Marshfield Missouri nursing home.

    This is for the widows in my neighborhood

    A discussion yesterday of the best television shows of all time inspires these two jazz selections, representing my picks for the best from the 1970s and 1980s. The Honeymooners (1950s), The Twilight Zone (1960s), The Larry Sanders Show (1990s), Everybody Loves Raymond (2000s), and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia (2010s) were my other selections.

    Nothing fancy just a cast iron finished cheese/bean burrito wrap, but the Head Hunters' fantastic. Canned 11/12/2020 but it was in their beer fridge the whole time so it was pristine. So flavorful this 'fresh'

    Got my first dose of the Moderna vaccine yesterday. I also got my shipment of beers from Iowa and Vermont via California. So Hunter, pretend you're me for a minute, you've never had the KING SUE, FOCAL BANGER or HEADY TOPPER. Which one would you try first? I love you, man! They are all less than a month old too. I'm excited!

    And DRINK FROM THE CAN, TOO!
