St Bernardus Abt 12 pours a nice brown with a fluffy head. Let it warm up a bit and the stone fruit flavor really shines through.

Girl, you must be a tiger because you are any of various similar wild felines, such as the jaguar, mountain lion, or lynx.
Courtesy of the You Must Be [1] pick up line generator. I love these kinds of things.
Tarred
Is this the part of the day where I remark on how tired I am, that I’m not particularly keen on the idea of going into work today, that one of the drawbacks to dogs is their unwillingness to be litter trained, and that Oxford commas are the bomb?
If so, you can pretty much guess what I’d say at this point.
Sanctification
Are you ready for a psychobilly revival tent meeting? The Reverend Horton Heat [1] will be at the Waiting Room on January 15, 2014 [2]. I will probably be there as well.
Earplugs recommended.

A sad thing
Former Lincoln Stars head coach Chad Johnson was found dead [1] in Fargo. While authorities don’t suspect foul play the framing looks an awful lot like something that would be hard to describe as accidental. Makes his stated reason for resigning days before the season started sound a lot more ominous.
A sad day in all of Starsville. Condolences to his family.

Buellering it up
Playing hooky today and did Omaha proper.
- Takin’ care of business
- Zoo tour
- Late sushi lunch with a bottle o’ wine
- Dessert and coffee
- ….and now off to a hockey game!
All of this and I still have a full weekend of slacking before me. My baby treats me right.

Christmas beer label so far
The beer itself is based on the Rochefort 8 [1], so why not steal the label?
Q/A
- Is there anything more dreary than making a slide deck?
A: Yes, having to sit through a slide deck. - How much of the drudgery associated with putting together a slide deck is dreading the presentation that one has to give based on that deck?
A: I’ll bet it’s a lot! - Why are some people so hostile to the notion of version control?
A: [I have no good answer for this] - Is this what I was expected to be doing as a software development engineer?
A: Definitely not - Is PowerPoint the devil?
A: Easy joke. Everyone has already done this before - Are you wasting time instead of writing your presentation deck?
A: Obviously…
Still a thing
Mousepads are still a thing? Who knew?
I just got a new one to commemorate some corporate thing. I should break out my Le Clic to get some photographs for you. I’ll send them to you via fax.
