Yes, it is another great Monday. Time to head back to work, put out the fires that crop up, jump on some conference calls, get busy. How ’bout a woman empowering beer? Seems as if the Washington Post has some issues with the Yearly Kosbat convention. How bad is it when a so-called ally in […]

Yes, Surrendie and I are in the nations capital. Rather then driving all the way back to NC, decided to do something a wee bit different. Haven’t been here in a long, long time. Going to check a few sites such as the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, laugh at Darwin. Maybe walk over near […]
