Michaewa

To all of the players at my 1/2 NL table at Planet Hollywood on 18 January, I apologize.

My statements on that night were misleading and had no basis in fact.

I am not now, nor have I ever been a member of the band SuperDiamond. I have not played a tambourine since I was in the school play in 3rd grade. Additionally, it would appear that SuperDiamond is not from Cleveland, Ohio.

Again, my sincere apologies.

Two of the greatest albums for providing energy to the listener, specifically as it relates to physical activity (read: working out) are And Justice for All and Master of Puppets by Metallica. Specifically, the songs Damage, Inc. and The Shortest Straw.

In case you are wondering, this is completely objective and has nothing to do with personal preference.

Had to kill my old server. Welcome to your new home, michaewa.

Squeezed it in yesterday, here is the recipe for 10 gallons:

• 10 # 2 row
• 4 # wheat malt
• 12 oz 40L crystal
• 1 oz roast barley (english)
• 2 oz hallertau 60 min
• WLP575 Belgian Ale Blend

Mashed at 156 for 1 hr, 60 minute boil, chill, and pitch.

I’ll let it go for 10 days or so and then rack 4 gallons into each of 2 carboys with 1 gallon of Knudsen’s cherry juice.

The english roast barley and the yeast were an audible due to the lack of selection at the homebrew shop. I think it will turn out just fine.

Now I just need to come up with a name. Since the cherries traditionally come from Door County I was thinking of something that would pay homage to the lizard king. Roadhouse Red perhaps?

It has become clear to me that Scott Adams works somewhere in my office as a mole. He clearly gleans up to 75% of all strip ideas and themes from conversations and initiatives dreamed up and put into place at my place of employment.

I’ll find you…

 
If I can ever get more than 25 minutes between urgent emails with long crazy rants in the subject line, I’m going to try to brew a clone of Belgian Red.

I had it for the first time at the GABF last year. When we got into the venue, about 85% of the total crowd was standing in a long, snaking line in front of the New Glarus booth, and as soon as they finished their first sample, they cycled back to wait again. Definitely a good sign.

I am lucky enough to come into a bottle here and again but with no real regularity. Zymurgy published a recipe using Knudsen’s tart cherry juice rather than real cherries, and I’m going to follow that as much as some local ingredient limitations will allow.

10 gallons, coming up…

It feels so good to finally get that affirmation that your efforts are paying off. For someone to take the time to give you great feedback is so simple but can mean so much. I will approach my publishing with a renewed zeal following the high praise of one mostly anonymous poster.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Given that there is a greater incidence of telecommuting as well as educated, low cost labor around the world, would it be possible to hold 2, 5, 10 or more jobs and not work at any of them?

It would work like this…Find a job where you can work remotely nearly 100% of the time. Ideally the work would be fairly autonomous in nature - recieve assignment, complete assigment, submit assignment without excessive back and forth. As soon as you establish a job, you outsource it. Even if you have to pay 60% or more of your wage to the person actually doing your job, you are scalable. Once you outsource one, you apply for and get another one.

It would be a truly interesting experience to have 5 full time jobs, make 200% (after expenses but before taxes) of a normal salary, but only have to work in a supervisory capacity (to the extent your outsourcers were not as intelligent or detail oriented as you were).
