Goddammit,

My apologies to all you lovely people for my lack of motivation to write one of these. I was hoping for a guest post but apparently my guest has decided to sit on his thumb and spin. Moving on not a lot has happened in my life. Still dating, still playing videogames and still drinking beer. New recommendations however and they will be at the bottom of this post. So first off how 'bout that Skyrim pre-order bonus eh? Oh yea a physical map of the game. Initially I went, "WHAT?!?!" but now im like, "fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap." That Collector's Edition is calling my name and I'll be damned if I don't get it. I could never call myself a fanboy ever again. Next up is i finally got to playing New Vegas on my Xbox. That was so awful. So I immediately had it replaced for the PC. That's right. The PC. I said it. I'm playing the games they were meant to be played. Dragon Age, Fallout 3, Oblivion (and soon Skyrim!! fapptiyfapfapfap) all meant for my glorious PC which after 3 years still runs these games when Dell itself says my computer is obsolete.

So there's that. To the glorious land of beer! I had a chance recently to go to Arcadia Ales in Battle Creek, MI and Darkhorse Brewery in Marshall, MI and they both were phenomenal breweries. Darkhorse had their own brewed cream soda on tap which was also as good as their beers. Arcadia has a fantastic restaurant in addition to some excellent beers. I also hit Saugatuck Brewing Company (the name says it all) which also had some good beers and a good restaurant. Finally Oddside Ales in Grand Haven I returned to today and for doing some pretty unusual beers (hence Oddside) they are topnotch. Also this past 4th of August was International IPA day (which I celebrated of course) so look forward to that next year!

So here it is.

Videogame: Dragon Age

Beers: Arcadia's Sky High Rye, Saugatuck's Singapore IPA, New Holland's Sundog and finally Founder's Devil Dancer (its a triple IPA and it is AMAZING on tap!)

Music: Coheed & Cambria's Second Stage Turbine Blade, and Static-X's Wisconsin Death Trip

Literature: Dan Brown's Lost Symbol, and Jim Butcher's Dresden Files Series.

That's all for now folks! Hopefully I'll be better but hey with all this beer I'm drinking I'll be lucky if I can find my own pants! Haha. Remember if you put the bottle down, the Man wins.

To "health,"

Darth
