    TGIF, people!

    Hop Damn from Akasha Brewing Co. in Sydney. Another old can so slightly muted to the point it's not worth reviewing. Pretty looking pineapple yellow colour, though.

    Had my two-year cancer check-up today. A camera up my nose and down my throat, followed by lots of prodding and poking in my mouth, but the headline is I'm all clear and officially out of the biggest danger zone for recurrence, so yay me!

    Cheers!

    Hey Az, congrats on being clean for two years. I've had some cancer tribulations myself and I'm familiar with the anxiety before you get those results back and the relief/joy when you're told what you want to hear. I've had esophageal cancer that recurred twice and I'm now in the middle of a pancreatic cancer scare. I can both feel your pain and share your joy. Congratulations and here's to many more clean years!!

    I've got Foster's Ale and Lager in the fridge, but I'll save those for another time. This morning it's Sloop Fresh Pressed Juice Bomb. A little sun in the backround would make it look better

    Congrats on the checkup @AzfromOz here's an obscure tune by by Kenny Loggins to celebrate with

    Also congrats from me on the clean cancer check up, Az

    That Fresh Pressed was really good, next up is Beer Tree Brew Juice Land, which is also tasty

    I dug deep into the vault and found another Kenny Loggins tune, this time he's playing at a small venue in Philly

    Fosters lager used to be my favorite beer for a little bit but once I got a horrendous headache I assumed it was from them. I like the ale as well.

    Hey mate, thanks for the kind words, and best of luck with your journey. Cancer is shit, there's no two ways about it!

    Thanks mate! As per @DrStiffington, there's nothing obscure about that song - it was my favourite song back in 1986!

    Thanks buddy!

    Cheers!

    What am I for you? Some boomer. :slight_frown:

    Edited to add: just got back from the station, when the French railway unions aren’t on strike, the vending machine for tickets is out of order and the station also closed.

    Go big or go home? I’m going home.

    Good day BAs! Thanks, @AzfromOz for starting the thread and congratulations on the negative CA diagnosis! Just don't smoke, drink, or eat and you should stay cancer free, at least in the GI track.
    today's New Breakfast Beer is another from @woemad and NBS BIF #15:

    Good morning, BAs! Kicking off the long weekend (anniversary weekend, coincidentally) with some Hazelnut KBS and some metal (it's still Horns Up Friday after all).

    I'll be mostly away from the forum this weekend, I suspect. Cheers!

    I think my definition for boomer would jokingly be some crotchety elderly people who just walk around miserable all day.

    Idk the definition exactly but millennial is 86-2001? I vaguely remember a time before 9/11 and that kind of is the cutoff since life has been change so drastically from that

    Busy planning a trip to cross state lines into Kenosha next weekend for one of several beer runs planned over the next two weeks. 3 Sheeps the primary, Central Waters secondary targets, both scarce in Illinois. Down to under a six pack of "drink fresh" beers.

    That would be me, only have the beer or two to cheer me up.

    Without looking it up, early 1980s to 2000 I believe.

    I was just 17 during 9/11, all I knew that we were off for difficult times. How wrong I was. It was and still is very difficult. It has always been like that anyway.
