1/26/2010 Racked to secondary - Tasted like ASS (hecnce the name), I can’t even swallow it (that’s what she said?) - Not sure of the flavor. Maybe astringent. (Later on, I’m guessing it’s fusel alchol) - Very strong flavor. Offensive. God have mercy on my soul. 2/12/2010 Bottling Day 3/5/2010 Open first bottle |

Climbing in Las Vegas
More videos will come in the future, but I wanted to get this one up right quick. My rock climbing crew LCO went out to Las Vegas to climb back in March 2010. This video is from day 2 when we climbed Johnny Vegas. We had planned on climbing Solar Slab after Johnny Vegas which is 8 more pitches, but we got a late start (I dunno how because we were out the door at 5am) and there was some slow moving traffic (climbers) up ahead of us on the wall. It was probably a good decision because we probably wouldn’t have finished the climb before dark. If that happened it would have been really dangerous to walk out of there. So we made the hard decision of bailing on the route. It was the right thing to do though.
So besides Johnny Vegas we has some really great days in Ice Box Canyon, and toolin’ around the second and third pullouts. Below are some photos taken by my good buddies Tina (vraiphoto.com) and Liesl (liesldieselphoto.com):

This is my first batch of beer I ever made. I started brewing it on 1/10/2010 and I finally got to taste it for the very first time on 2/6/2010. I made quite a few mistakes on this batch, which I suppose is to be expected for a first time brew. But it ended up tasting pretty good. This was a great lesion in the home brew golden rule: Relax, don’t worry, have a home brew. So here’s a rundown of the mistakes I made:
On 1/17/2010, I bottled the beer. At this point the beer is pretty much done fermenting. A little fermenting will happen in the bottle, but nothing appreciable. On 2/16/2010, I opened up my first bottle of home brew and was pleasantly surprised at the taste. It wasn’t anything spectacular, but for my first go, it wasn’t half bad. |

We’re goin beer blog suckers (Rock climbing too)

Hey kids, how are ya? Let’s sit down for a second here. Pull up a chair. We need to talk.
Ya, sure, this “blog” thing is going alright. It’s cute. Every once in a while, you’ll see some kitten videos or some deal about facial hair. You get the idea.
But I think it’s time we got serious about what we’re doing here. We gotta quit fuckin’ around (Don’t tell your mother I swore in front of you). Sure we can still do the stupid dog videos and videos of people gettin’ hit in the crotch. I mean, come on, that’s our bread and butter. But what we really need to concentrate on are the two things you love the most. Namely beer and rock climbing. I know, I know what you’re going to say. “But Mayor Awesome” that sounds like you’re actually going to have to update your blag once in a while.” Well yeah, no shit Einstein. You think you’re so smart ’cause you went to college? Psh.
We’ve been doing this blogging thing for a long ass time. Before there even was an Awesometown. That’s right kid. This ain’t my first rodeo. If you wanna hit the big time, you gotta cut the crap and start producing some damn content. So let’s get on it kid. Alright? Alright. Now get me a beer outta the fridge.
That’s a good kid.

OK Go: This Too Shall Pass
In this Open Letter “To the people of the world,” the band OK Go laments the state of labels controlling the embedding of videos. The band has been on the cutting edge of independently making their own videos, with often amazing Internet response. ”Here It Goes Again” (You know, the treadmill video) is consistently one of the most watched videos on YouTube, however all YouTube OK Go videos are coded with embedding disabled, as per their label. Here, they perform their song “This Too Shall Pass” live on location, with a little help from the Notre Dame Marching Band.

Keynes and Hayek gangsta rap
In “Fear the Boom and Bust,” John Maynard Keynes and F. A. Hayek perform a gangsta rap about their competing economic theories:
John Maynard Keynes, wrote the book on modern macro
The man you need when the economy’s off track, [whoa]
Depression, recession now your question’s in session
Have a seat and I’ll school you in one simple lessonBOOM, 1929 the big crash
We didn’t bounce back–economy’s in the trash
Persistent unemployment, the result of sticky wages
Waiting for recovery? Seriously? That’s outrageous!I had a real plan any fool can understand
The advice, real simple–boost aggregate demand!
C, I, G, all together gets to Y
Make sure the total’s growing, watch the economy fly
