TenFidy... Imperial Stout
All hail Oskar Blues on an awesome Imperial Stout. Thick enough head that it's almost as creamy as a root beer float. Just to let you MN folks know, seems like we're seeing increased availability of Oskar Blues' beers here, so get out your can koosies.

the cat's mats
cutting dreadlocks out of the armpits of a long-haired cat is not usually a one-person task. sure helps when the cat is part ragdoll and deals with confrontation like an opossum. even this cat has his limits, so some dreads had to stay.

the cat was NOT on my mario kart team
he jumped up on the TV stand and laid down in front of my part of the screen in the deciding race of the tie breaking grand Prix.
