You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Nora, if I were Tom, I'd wait a full week, and then not send that much of an email. Places move slow!

Relatedly, I just had an interview that ended with her talking about calling my references next week, so that seems to bode well, no?

Our wings are not tired.

Lisa, I will keep that in mind!

Juliana, cool. I need to visit Starbelly before the Belltower though.

Nora, I saw what Vortex edited in Spike's and agree with those changes. Good luck, Tom!

I'm reading a great book by the founder of Dogfish Head, "Brewing Up A Business" which is the story of how he founded the brewery. Very interesting read.

Speaking of tasty beverages, I just found out that a local beer and wine shop carries Blackthorn cider. There's a 4- 3-pack sitting in my fridge right now. Yum!

OMG, I just realized I never opened my work email this morning.

Nora did I mention that my friend Betty is the sister of the guy who founded Abita Beer down near New Orleans? He sold it a long time ago (and got into boutique gin and liquors) but I might be able to get you a contact email so you can ask about doing business down there.

Congrats on the car!

One of my co-workers applied for a job with the federal gov't in November of 2008. She just got the formal job offer last week.

That would be great!

Apparently, NOLA Brewing Co. is sponsoring an American Craft Beer week in New Orleans the week of May 17... would love to get down there to network!
