Awesome Tasting Tonight!
So… I’m somewhat drunk… and all for “free” (I bought 2 bottles of beer). The Great Divide tasting at Nikki’s was excellent. My favorites… Titan IPA (of course, being my favorite IPA and all), Hercules Double IPA, Fresh Hop Pale … Continue reading
More Autumn Beers
Let’s see… last night at the Geek Dinner, I drank the Redhook ESB, which wasn’t anything special. Not too bitter, lacked any sort of hops flavor to it and wasn’t even the same color as most ESB’s. It wasn’t bad, … Continue reading

iPod/iTunes Restrictions Broken
As I previously reported on the new iPods being restricted to using iTunes to sync music and movies, there is now word that the hash has been broken for at least the new iPod Classic. However, while this might be … Continue reading
Gritty McDuff’s Halloween Ale
Tonight’s beer was the first of the autumn beers for me, Gritty’s Halloween Ale. I don’t have a whole lot to say about it. I initially thought it was this beer I had last year that had a nice pumpkin … Continue reading
GIMP UI Redesign
My favorite image editor, GIMP (Gnu Image Manipulation Program), is going through a redesign of the UI. The UI Redesign team has posted a blog where users can submit images of how they think the GIMP UI should look. I … Continue reading
