FAC Microbrew Partay

Wow, there is a lot to write in this FAC announcement.

First I will say that there is a typo in my calendar. It says "15" for Friday's date so apparently there are two 15ths this month. This is the "Backyard Biosecurity" Avian flu calendar -- it has USDA APHIS VS all over it. I am sad for us.

What else? The internet makes everything seem to move so fast but the biggest things are the HD DVD decryption movement, Diet Coke Plus, and Midnight Cool Flavor Eclipse Gum.

Diet Coke Plus has vitamins. B vitamins and zinc and stuff. I want to quote (not an exact quote but close enough) something I read in Newsweek from some Coke guy:
" We are not promoting it as 'healthier' because that would perpetuate the false idea that soda is bad for you in the first place."
Um, hellllloooo..... is saying that soda is good for us, or --- excuse me-- NOT bad for us?

Midnight Cool Eclipse Gum is NOT good for us. No matter what Wrigley says. Unless you like black licorice or Black Jack gum, mixed with mint. Do not buy this gum if you do not want the refreshing taste of minty licorice.

Okay -- product review segment over.

FAC!!
What are we doing this week?

Well this Friday after I spend a couple of hours basking in the glow of epic pirate sea battles, I will by enjoying many fabulous micro brews at a MICRO BREW PARTY!

Here is how it works:

Every person brings a six pack of a micro brew. The point is to try to have no two of the same six packs. A growler counts as a six pack.

Party is at 6:30 pm. (I will be later than that due to my obligations to Captain Sao Feng.)
Address is Stover and Del Clair -- about halfway between Drake and Swallow on Stover.
RSVP to me if you want to come and we will meet together, or you can just show up and introduce yourself to Cecil and Marsha, our gracious hosts for the evening.
Call me if you want more info.

Happy long weekend Y'all!
Don't get caught breaking the law!
