a rose by any other name would still smell Good Enough

A researcher cited in a paper has the last name "Goodenough" I wonder if he (or she) chose it him(her)self :)

snow sinks, flowers sprout

Spring is slipping up through the snow. This is the second settlement of snowdrobuffeted uthern slopes I've setrafficdding introaring oom.

(aldecidederation is alluring).

In voice class today we had to turn our relationship to our voice into a story. Here was mine:
"Once upon a time there was a little wind that was just a breath on the air. It liked the company of other soft voices. It would murmur with the wind in the trees, or have little lapping conversations with the waves on the lake. The roar of the city with its rushing too and fro and hundreds of words was overwhelming for thecould pd le wind. If it had to blow through a city it preferred to hide behind a bigger wind,frightened of the big city aing through. It liked to curl up in small dark spaces. It liked to play, rolling and tumbling in the fields. In those fields it met furry creatures and it found it could ruffle their hairs until they fell asleep.
But the little wind grew tired of being frightened of the big city and of being buffeted by the wind from the traffic and the roaring voices. It decided it needed to learn how to blow a little stronger."
I liked it. I think I could turn it into a kids book.

Beer Review: Boneshaker


"It was good. It had an aftertaste."

A repeat from the last beer advent, Boneshaker was previously ranked ninth, ahead of Russian Gun Imperial, but behind three different flavours of Innis & Gunn. Yesterday Kevin asked me with big hopeful eyes if there were any Innis & Gunn in this years advent.

Beer Review: Piraat

Piraat:

The build-up:
Piraat. A Belgian beer. I have a feeling this one is going to be good. Look at the percentage on this one! Ten and a half percent! Let's get her going. This is going to give the mead a run for it's money.

The review:
It was pretty good. Not as good as the mead. That one is going to be hard to beat.

Missed Beer Reviews

Rafiki and I didn't chat on the phone for the past couple days, so I missed my nightly beer review. So tonight I asked for a summary.

Shepherd Neame & Co. Christmas Ale:
Silence.
However it was the last beer advent line-up, and ranked eleventh, just ahead of Hockley's Amber Ale and just behind Russian Gun Imperial.











Downtown Brown All Natural Ale:
It was okay... Okay.









Trafalgar ESB (Extra Special Bitter):
It was bitter.
