More Beer Blogging

(July 29, 2012)

I still haven’t finished with all the email, so I have to keep beering it up. Eww!  One for the sink.  Golden-coloured beer with a big fresh fruity citrus nose and taste. Refreshing hoppy finish. Perfect for a Spring day. Hm.  Why is the focus now to the left of the viewfinder? Nice golden peachy color. … Continue reading More Beer Blogging

My New Beer Blog

(July 27, 2012)

I’ve decided that there aren’t enough beer blogs in the world, so I’m turning this one into one. But as a special variation, I’m going to be beer blogging while I’m handling Gmane deletion requests.  Which I haven’t done for a couple of months. This one is quite good.  Yum. “i am a user who … Continue reading My New Beer Blog

Flowerin’

(July 18, 2012)

It’s summertime, so all the flowers are in bloom!  Just look at these bountiful aloes and haworthias! Ok, not very impressive.  But the roses are doing well, at least.

Readin’

(July 15, 2012)

I’ve always bought more books than I can possibly read. It’s under control, though.  Just a fraction more.  But it means that the section of the bookcase(s) that contain the unread books grows, slowly but inevitably. That’s fine. I put the books I read at the top of the bookcase, and the unread ones sort … Continue reading Readin’

Special CD

(July 11, 2012)

I was ripping CDs tonight, and one was giving me more problems than usual. It was a cd by the band called disc, which is a Matmos offshoot. I took the CD out of the drive and stared at it a bit. Oops.  I think it might be one of those conceptual non-playable CDs.  And … Continue reading Special CD

Software Sucks

(July 10, 2012)

The machine that runs my stereo is a seven year old Hush machine.  The last time I rebooted it, it kinda didn’t want to boot at all, except then it did anyway.  So I’m thinking that it’s probably going off for the fjords one of these days. To avoid some horrible music-less days I’ve bought … Continue reading Software Sucks

Kongsberg Jazz Festival

(July 9, 2012)

I’ve been to the Kongsberg Jazz Festival this weekend. It’s mostly a blur. I think we saw like a dozen free jazz concerts.  Most of them excellent. Some stand out in particular.  Like the very quiet and magical John Tilbury concert.  And the very inventive  Augstí Fernández thing. Oh, and the surprising Selvhenter concert.  And … Continue reading Kongsberg Jazz Festival
