Craig, let's put something on the books to get together...I'll brew a keg of that beer you like and we can all pound it down. I need about a month's to 6 weeks notice so I can buy the ingredients, brew it, and keg it. It needs about a month from the time we brew it til the time we drink it.

Another thing we could do is all get together for a brew day somewhere. I could be the brewmeister and show all you guys what's involved in brewing. We could meet centrally at someone's house and do it there...just a thought.

Yeah, Toni and I have both been pretty sick. Long story, I'll tell ya next time I see ya. The good news is now we actually know what is making us sick and are a pretty aggressive protocol to treat it, but things haven't gotten much better yet. Hopefully in a year we can look back and be better than we are today.
I would like that, really. I have brewed my own beer more than once, but it tasted like barleywine but very watered down. I pretty much sucked in other words. You have this process patented, it's that tastey.

All we would need to do is pick a spot, a date, and a plan. We could do this anywhere, but if the group is small enough, I am up for a short weekend out there no problemo.
 
Craig, let's do it.

I've got some traveling and such happening over the next few months but we could find a date in there somewhere to do it. It would be easiest to do it here at my house since I could then do the work needed after brewing (kegging, carbonating, etc.). We could do a small bbq here at my pad and combine it with some drinking. You can always crash here as well, we've got extra rooms.

Could it be over-exposure to too many dirty hippies living in the general area? :p
My bet is this: a FORD running on biodiesel. It has to be ;) .
I keed I keed :beers:
 
BTW Craig, you'll be happy to know that we are no longer have ANY F*&ds in the household here (although there may be a 2007 something from Chevrolet in the garage soon that's super fast) ;)

Hydraulic...

Lunati Voodoo, #60202,

262/268 Dur
.530/.542 lift
112 LSA
108 ICL
1400-5800...

I guess I need to go look, I don't remember buying a timing chain, but pretty sure I did (just the 3-key setup)...
That cam will chop a bit at idle, but not nearly as raspy as mine. Do you have the -lift at .050- numbers? I like it, should build good torque, it's what you need. Should be fun, we just need to get a date set, and our schedules cleared up. Hey, maybe an early Christmas present, in October or November :)

Really dusty/dirty in these pictures...
Tony, that wagon is SWEET :beers:

Ugghhh, I see your 'need' for another car right there, it would be tough for me to pass up as well. I remember this excact quandrum when I bought the green pile of bolts in my garage now, go back and forth, looking at MANY pictures of finished projects. It took me some time to actually do the deed, but man when I first saw it in that dusty beast in the old barn for the first time a ray of heavenly light shined upon it from above, it just has to be. So, umm, I am not much help here, your wife will not be to fond of me next time she see's me huh?

OOOHHHH MAN, you saying 'super fast' and 'Chevrolet' brings thoughts of one car I am so fond of, please say it's so??????

PUHLEEZE.......Z-O6?????????? If so, your killing me here bro.

You know I want a ride when it get's here

It's very good to talk to you Jeff :beers:

Hmm, it's possible ;)

Seriously, I should have a better idea of if/when it'll be in my garage in a few months, and whether I need to a) build a bigger garage b) sell the Chevelle c) put the other cars outside

:D

Yeah man, we got to get together soon for diving into the mystery cooler (it's a 5-day chest on wheels now. headers on order!) and shootin' the breeze. Maybe if we all end up at Kingdon on the 7th, we can raid Beaux's garage afterward? LOL.

My place is getting close to hosting. I put in horseshoe pits (to National Horseshoe Pitching Association regulations :D ) and just need to install the backstops (with beer holders of course). Beaux and I broke it in last weekend. Works like a champ.
I have never horseshoed before, one tosses a steel horseshoe towards a metal stake sticking up out of the ground and hopes of ringing it?

If so, sounds like cowboy darts and I am in.
 
Kinzli, you going to be around Monday Oct. 2nd in the evening? If so, I'll stop by and shoot the breeze for a bit.

I think a "how-to-brew" seminar at Kinzli's would be sweet. I already saw the master brew one batch, but it never gets old. Plus, you have to empty a keg to get ready to fill it with new beer :beers: .

What's up with Ron? Is he herding Sheep and delivering pussywillow in the Santa Cruz area? :p

*jaw dropping to floor*

You know I really seriously dislike you right now???

The new Z-O6 is one of my all time best ever dream cars man. the only other cars I hold above that pinnacle is a McLaren F1, 911TT, ENZO, Elvis's '56 Caddy, and that's about it in my book. Jeff, I want to just be in the same garage as that car, I really love 'em. I just don't fit :sad: but in this case, I may have the Dr alter my legs.

Let me know please ASAP.....

Unfortunately, I won't be :(

Dirt, you learn fast! ;)

Haven't seen old Filthy around lately...not sure if he's still in the area. I lost his cellphone number too. Filthy, you around? :)

I won't know for a few months whether or not it's going to work out...

But I do have a friend that has a Maclaren and an Enzo, as well as a number (about 20) other Ferrari's and Lambos, as well as a bunch of other exotics. He doesn't live too far from me, perhaps we could go visit his "corral" sometime :) But I think I already showed those pictures to you of the last time I went to see them? Can't remember now though, my mind is mush.

If/when the Z06 shows up, you will of course be my guest to go for a cruise, we'll make you fit in there one way or another.

Pictures don't do those cars justice ;) Reta would crap if she got to check those rides out in person, perhaps this could happen one day :D

Jeff, I would LOVE a ride in that car with you, please keep me updated. Damn, I love it.

Just wanted to check. We'll catch up with you soon hopefully.

:) I'm a fast learner.

I got his cell number (or at least the last one he called me from a few months ago). Maybe he is training for the Calf-off??

Al my man, you and I are on the same page :beers:
I'm always thinking beer, women, cars , boats, and guitars :waving:

Man Kinzli, I'd love to have one of those cars your friend has. I'd also love to have a new Z06. I'm just a couple of pesos short of either. LOL.

and guitars :waving:
Really? My son has a Rogue? acoustical in the room right now with his friend practicing, for the ladies of course....

I think of the Raiders too, but let's not open that can right now :eek:

I've owed an acoustic guitar since 1996. An electric since 1997 or so. My dad gave me one of his bass guitars a few years ago, along with a 40watt practice amp. I also scored my brother's '80s something Gibson Les Paul replica (made by Hondo), last year (this guitar was originally my dad's). So four guitars and three amps :) . I'm not that great. I play a little Nirvana, hack out some Metallica, and riffs here and there. It's fun. Good luck to Brian with the guitar. I wish I could focus on it more. Guitar playing is great.

Yeah the Raiders ain't looking worth p*ss. I'm sticking by them. At least they have some defense that shows up. The offense is horrible! I think the defense should play offense for the time being :) . Maybe with this bye week, they'll get their junk together :angry:

Ya, I am with you on the offence sucking right now. I heard that Shell wants to go to a shotgun offence this next game against the Browns. I don't blame him, the last 2 games the Q is running for his life as soon as the ball is snapped. It's sad, but our starters on the front line suck.

Our defence is quite good under Ryan, suprisingly this year. One thing is, they do get worn out by the 4th quarter because they are always on the dang field the whole game :eek:
