Don't Put Forks in your Beer and Other Useful Tips

Somehow, I came across this video. It comes from environmental news and commentary website, Grist.org. I embed to it for two reasons:

1) It gives you helpful information for the removal of fruit from your bottle of beer.
2) It's so, so ridiculously cheesy and weird that I find it funny.



If you liked this, you'll be happy to know there's more where this came from.

Really, though, stop putting fruit in your beer. Seriously. Stop it.

Mike Rowe + Hops

Once, I had a dream that Mike Rowe saved me and a group of people from being trapped in some strange shielded colosseum in a jungle after the end of the world.

We can't all be fortunate enough to have fantastic dreams like that; so, for the rest of you, there's Dirty Jobs. And on this Tuesday, November 25, a new Dirty Jobs is airing in which we will see Mike Rowe pick some hops in Yakima, Washington at Hopunion. The fun begins on the Discovery Channel at 8pm (central), and again at midnight for people like me who will be watching Fringe at 8pm.

So, if you ever wondered what it would be like to watch someone harvest hops while doling out witty banter, this would be the time to tune in.
