The Weekend Eudemon
An abbreviated WE today. I have to leave at 6:15 for my son's last junior
football game. I'd like to sleep on the way, but I'm driving, so that makes it
tough. I might take a snooze when I get there, but I&

Brews You Can Use IV
Great site, if you're dealing with keg issues [http://www.kegs.com/faqs2.html].
