nw baltimore wx Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I'll echo the responses to Wx007. I'm glad to read that things are working out and that you're staying in the region.

I'll post a picture or two this weekend. And I'd gladly have folks over. If you're ever in the area around the Ville let me know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

das Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 I can now say that next winter will unequivocally be a cold and snowy winter for me in Clarksburg. Someone special wants to be my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many of us have faced similar and different challenges that test us so i'm glad you have been able to deal with them in such a positive way. good things happen to good people. My story begins after the war when I joined the peace corps. We were assigned to an isolated tribe called the mulombos. They had never seen white people before. This is the documentary of that trip dying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs.J Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 WxWatcher congrats on the new job. We all have been there. Ours was back in 2001. My husband had just taken an opportunity in Jan 2000 to be part of a start up in a new division of his company out in LA. Newly married we decided why not. So we packed up and moved on out to sunny CA. Things were going well but the writing was on the wall with the fall of the .com industry. My husband was laid off in Sept. 2001 as the division folded. We were left with my low paying job and no family anywhere near us. He soon found freelance work with an individual and a company and it actually put us close to where we had been before the layoff. While I was tiring of my job it had health insurance so I stayed to keep that for both of us. In Oct. of 2002 his original company found out he still was only freelancing and offered him to come back to MD. So again we packed up and moved back to MD. He has been with the same company ever since. Everyone life gets a bit bumpy every once and awhile. It makes us all understand ourselves better and maybe make us realize that we had compromised with our old position just because it felt comfortable. Yea to you for finding something that you are passionate about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showmethesnow Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Thought this was an appropriate song for the winter we just dealt with. Not to mention how dead these boards have become. Guess wxwatcher007 did too good of a job of reaping. Besides I like it. https://www.bing.com/search?q=comfortably+numb+pink+floyd&PC=U316&FORM=CHROMN Hello? Hello? Hello? Is there anybody in there?

There is no pain you are receding A distant ship smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a child I had a fever My hands felt just like two balloons Now I've got that feeling once again I can't explain you would not understand This is not how I am I have become comfortably numb Okay Just a little pinprick There'll be no more, ah But you may feel a little sick Can you stand up? I do believe it's working, good That'll keep you going through the show Come on it's time to go There is no pain you are receding A distant ship, smoke on the horizon You are only coming through in waves Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying When I was a child I caught a fleeting glimpse Out of the corner of my eye I turned to look but it was gone I cannot put my finger on it now The child is grown The dream is gone I have become comfortably numb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Yesterday was horrific. TODAY is absolutely scrumptious! 47/44 weather with overcast! It might rain tonight!!! I am gonna be outside, savoring yet another late winter jebwalk!! Perfect jebwalk weather with cool easterly breezes and battleship gray skies! What's not to like? !

CAPE Posted March 27, 2017 Share Posted March 27, 2017 Mattie you ready for this from Founders? KBS "What we’ve got here is an imperial stout brewed with a massive amount of coffee and chocolates, then cave-aged in oak bourbon barrels for an entire year to make sure wonderful bourbon undertones come through in the finish.

Yeah, it's around, though I don't think what Cape described is available just yet. I picked up the KBS awhile back at my local store, but they only had a limited supply. You may want to call first, but I'm pretty sure that Total Wine and Beer carries several in the Founders line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jebman Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 This is a terrible night. I dont even want to think about a jebwalk in these outright tropical conditions. The house is warm as hell. I wont sleep a wink tonight. I HATE SUMMER! There is nothing redeemable about it! We are averaging about 20 degrees above average, and by July, that will mean average highs in the mid to upper one hundred single digits. Something has got to be done NOW about global warming and severe climate change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C.A.P.E. is correct - KBS is coming out in April. I've read that it's supposed to become available around the country starting on April 1, but it may not show up until next week, depending on when your local store's distributors make their deliveries. KBS is hard to find in that the beer geeks tend to get out and pick up their allotments as soon as they hit the shelf (often taking time off from work to do so). It's also limited production, so it's just that much harder to find on the shelves. Total Wines should get it, as should any other quality bottle shop/liquor store/grocery store. For those in VA, any Whole Foods with a good beer selection should get it. I think even Trader Joe's may get some. Wegman's, too. I haven't asked around yet, but I may do so this week, as I've got a few TWs and TJs within about 15 minutes of me, as well as a couple Wegman's not too far away.

jonjon Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Since we are on the topic of beer, I wanted to pass along that we (Stumptown Ales) have just started our distribution and we are no longer just a brew pub. We now sell our 1/6 barrel kegs to bars/restaurants that specialize in craft beer. We can only self distribute in WV, so most of you will not see us out there, but we are starting with Morgantown along with the very local scene here in Davis/Thomas/Canaan Valley. Probably see us in Snowshoe and the eastern panhandle sometime soon, then maybe on to Charleston. If you are in any of those areas at a bar keep an eye out for our libations! Cheers!
