    This is completely ridiculous. I agree with @Kramerbarthomer about the flavor completely disagreeing with me, which is why I rarely buy Saison Dupont unless I know it hasn't been on the shelf for long. Plus, as they acknowledge, they lose control of their product even more so than normal, meaning that it is even more likely that their product won't take like it did when it left their possession. I don't understand this at all.

    Thread has been really quiet today. Everybody must still be passed out from celebrating the Hawks win last night...

    Damn Pizza Boy now has 10 Tired Hands options on draft. I'm going to go try the Alien Church as I've heard awesome things about it. I hope it lives up to expectations.

    I live in a western suburb of Houston. Tropical Storm Bill made landfall today south of Houston. It is tracking NW and will hit Austin and Dallas in the next day or so. Being as Houston is on the East side of the storm we are suppose to be getting a lot of rain and wind. So far it has been very mild but we are not out of the woods yet. Some forecasts are calling for west Houston to get 6-8 inches of rain this evening and overnight.

    The storm progressed much slower than anticipated. It was suppose to be bad this morning so my boss told me to work from home today. It just didn't work out that way and it was pleasant most of the day. Just about an hour ago it started raining and the winds are picking up now. It could be an interesting night.

    I agree. I thought it was a one and done thing and now there's another one. I'm guessing you saw the lower right corner where you can disable that certain alert.
