Aujord'hui

How can anyone not be disgusted by what is going on in Syria. Nope not a question; that was rhetorical. You should be disgusted. Politics aside, only in our worst nightmares would we dream that our president and our own soldiers would be killing us and indiscriminately shelling our neighborhoods with artillery. This is what is going on in Syria. Horrifying to imagine, and truly disgusting.

Meanwhile China and Russia have decided to keep playing their diplomacy games and veto UN resolutions to call for Syrian President Bashar Assad to step down. "No, we won't stop Assad from killing his own people because we don't like you other guys, and can't be seen to agree on something with you." God forbid a moment of solidarity among leaders in stopping something so appalling. I guess it shouldn't be surprising nations are playing fickle policy and diplomacy games at a dire moment of need. But wouldn't it be smart to understand that Assad will fall eventually? And you can guarantee that his successors will not forget the friends who tried to help, and the bullys who sat on their hands.


On to other things; like beer. We believe that practice makes creativeness. It is the time for repetition, cycling, and working on brewing different types of beers. We are going to get as good as we can at home brewing...but it is also a time for reading. If our knowledge expands through a combination of experience and book-smarts in the creation of a diverse collection of genres of beer, we are betting that we can do a number of top-secret spawns in our labs. Hopefully some of them will be something you have never had before...or perhaps we will settle for just something better than what you've had before!
