Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?
I'm not to upset about my scores....clearly I would like to have done better, but who wouldn't? My two submissions were "fly by the seat of my pants" submissions. I had no plans to submit anything...

Re: Homebrewers - Whats in the fermenter?

Re: What are you reading?
Just started re-reading the Wheel of Time saga. Started these when I was about 14 and the damn series dragged out so long I couldn't stick with it. Now the final book, book 12 I believe, is coming...

Re: Creating my Smoking Lounge!
