I’m spending it on beer

Thanks to everyone — except for the “give it to the needy!” guy, who is no doubt at this very moment lecturing the St. Patrick’s Day parade sponsors on how they should’ve spent their money to fight AIDS in Afghanistan — who replied to my earlier post about spending $100 in a crazy manner.

I’m going with the plan that involves buying $100.00 worth of local brew and conducting an exhaustive — and potentially exhausting — taste test to explore the ups and downs of what people drink around here.

    You strike me as a man of refined taste, so I trust you’re not going to waste time on Schell’s and Premium and the like.

    I applaud this idea with great passion.

    Erica, I’m going to try to keep an open mind. Who’s to say that Schell’s doesn’t have something special to offer? The goal is to paint a spectrum of local offerings… and as they say, it takes all kinds…

    I’m with Justin. It’s a splendid idea!

    Hey man… you were the one asking for ideas. Why are you picking on me?

    Mea culpa. I was picking on you because it was entertaining, and I have a fight-or-flight instinct for online interaction that seriously dates back to a local BBS chatroom in 1993. I will work harder to bottle up my demons for future posts.

    Aw… U’m sorry to so sensitive about it… just be safe about your adventure.
