I picked up a Leinenkugel variety pack this weekend and one of the beers was the new Fireside Nut Brown. After downing the 3 bottles in the pack over 3 days, I can only say, wow, what a great beer! I don't drink that many browns, but it is better than my former favorite, Sprecher's Brown Pub...

After reading the forum posts for about 30 minutes this moring, I went to a local TV station's web site to check on how much snow fell last night. I quickly glanced at the home page and I was shocked when I saw the headline, "Fidel Castro Blamed For Winter Storm". I did a double take and then...

The entire article can be found at the link below. I certainly got tear or 10 when I read it. A very close friend of mine has a daughter in the Marines and she may be going over to Iraq soon. http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/conte...7010100759.html "Grenade!" Manning a .50-caliber machine...
