Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Huh. I just got an automatic breaking news update in my email: "Ford names new chief of staff." I open it up and the article has to do with Hyundai's decision to reverse the decision to eliminate the minivan from its product plan.

Someone's not proofing the emails.

There was a Ford GT in our parking lot this morning. It attracted a lot of attention.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

This is a specialty niche where they don't use dried hops, and the freshness of the hops makes the beer herbier-grassier. It's a beer snob thing. They describe it as the beaujoulais nouveau of beer.

Don't get me wrong; I love beer more than my own mother, but -- hops = Nast. Eeee. Blech.

anyone mention Coalinga yet?

I thought about mentioning COWalinga, I really did. But then I also thought of the paper plant in Antioch, and the meat packing plant where I grew up, and seized up.
