I'm looking for a comment that I just can't find and want to read again. It detailed a version of Sex In The City as performed as a Beckett-like Black Box stage production. The women wailed a chorus of " THE SHOES" someone said " I fear I am not fecund". I have tried every permutation I could think of with no success. I'm 99% sure I read it here.
I DOUBT I AM FECUND, of course, that is so much better.

These two people, Terence Trevor-Mills and Lauren Grape-Expury, the ignorant, self-righteous recipients of a false system of wage exploitation, will be united in April during a massive wedding spectacle funded by the profits stolen from the proletariat employed by their capitalist fathers. The union, which will culminate in the corporate-and-state-supported subjugation and sexual slavery of Ms. Grape-Expury to Mr. Trevor-Mills, will be sanctioned by a paid-for church father despite the thieving hypocrisy of the celebrants, and will be attended only by other ruling capitalists, who will be served by even more proletariat, each at chafe under the rule of their masters. The wedding will be followed by champagne, and then by revolution, as the workers arise and take what is rightfully theirs, including the beaded Mischka wedding gown and the heaped platters of canvasback duck.I love Paul Ford. Especially since he goes on to say:
I’ve seen this so often—in friends and strangers—that it seems fundamentaly unmockable. I can’t say it won’t be me...
I can’t say it won’t be me. When you understand that—when you can say it and mean it—about any of the behaviors you've been comfortable condemning since adolescence, you've well and truly grown up.

I just had an expensive artisanal Scandinavian Toasted Porter that has been highly rated by the experts. It is brewed at the foot of a volcano from meltwater that has filtered for years through volcanic rock.
It tasted a bit familiar, so I opened one of the two last bottles of my toasted oatmeal brown ale that I brewed in November. Mine was as good if not better than the highly rated and hard to find ale that sells for $6 a bottle.
This made my day. Maybe even my week.
On the other hand I just found out have a scary meeting early on the week which could result in nothing, losing a few thousand dollars or losing my job.
Is it possible, in a cosmic sense of view, to once in a lifetime, after the age of eight, to have a perfect week with absolutely no worries?

I made a (non-toasted) oatmeal stout that far eclipsed any commercial stout I can remember ever drinking.
Considering it was my first attempt at 'first principles' brewing instead of simply throwing a tin of sticky glop & a kilo of generic malt into a fermenter with a sachet of yeast, it really made me wonder just how half-arsed the commercial breweries are in their corner-cutting & skimping on quality ingredients.

Lets say you are making 5 gallons of beer at home.
You can aim for maximum efficiency. Crush the grain very very fine and sparge until the wort runs very light (risking tannin extraction). Use the least amount possible of hops to get your IBUs, using old super high alpha acids hops for bitternes and only a little good fresh aroma hops at the end. You can really filter your wort between kettle and fermenter, extracting weird flavors from the trub. Then you ferment on yeast that has been used 3 or 4 times, pitching and the minimum necessary rate, and then try to get to the bottle as fast as possible.
Or you can add en extra 2 pounds of grain for $3.50 and use better and hops for both bittering and aroma for an extra $4.
Those $7 would turn into several thousand for a big batch.

Hardcode, you just rediscovered one of the laws of home brewing. The best bottle in the batch is always the last one.
When new home brewers ask for advice I tell them to hide a six pack of every batch in a really inconvenient place. Drink one 3 months after you finish the rest. The next one at 6 months. Then at one year. Drink the rest at one year intervals.
You will know how beer matures, when different styles peak, and when they start to decline. It is amazing the work the little left over yeast can do. They will adapt their metabolism to eat almost anything with carbon, and find ways to excrete ever more delicousness from their little scarred single celled sexy bodies.

The bit about the grain prices is true. It's much easier and much much cheaper for you to upgrade your equipment as well as your ingredients, and that equipment can make a huge difference in how your beers turn out. Another factor is that you're in control of those bottles from the time the beer gets put in them 'till they get poured. In the end, it's much easier to make and distribute an o.k. beer than a really good one. The bell curve wins again.
Now if you'll excuse me, I've got to figure out how I can talk my wife into picking up a six pack of Left Hand's Milk Stout Nitro on the way home.

That was my observation with mead, which was what I started out brewing years ago. Only, you should substitute "ersatz" for "o.k": every commercial mead I've tried seemed to have been brewed with regular brewing sugar, with a dash of honey thrown in at the end to fool the consumers. I assume the reason is that honeys are full of a variety of relatively complex sugars, which take a lot longer to break down. Initial fermentation for me would take anywhere from 4-6 weeks, depending on the season (compared with 4-6 days for beer).
Commercial mead breweries presumbly aim to cut down on this long turnaround, by getting most of their alco-bang from easily fermentable brewing sugar, and only use the honey for a bit of flavouring.
The result is normally a sticky, sweet concoction, suitable only for the most naive of medieval recreationists. In contrast, I used to brew mine right through to something not unlike a dry white wine, relying more on the natural characteristics of the different kinds of honeys for flavour, rather than a generic sweetness (orange blossom with about 25% leatherwood was a favourite).

Um... hard to explain, has to do with bear subculture in the gay community. It's like "hot", but instead of meaning, say, male stripper beauty, it instead says that someone has attributes which are attractive to people who like the bear thing. It's also somehow done in a more friendly way than just saying "you're hot".. it's not uncommon to be at a bear gathering where men are saying "woof" to other men and it's a friendly acknowledgement of "you're a good looking guy, thanks for existing" or something.
As far as where it comes from, the origins are hotly debated, but there is a general consensus that it comes from this.
