Hmm. Does it taste anything like Floris Kriek? I saw that on the shelf, but I don't think it's a lambic, so maybe it's not comparable. Or have you had Floris Kriek at all? Yeah, I've had fruit beers before and they actually tasted like beer with just a bit of the fruit flavour. Thought the Pomme would be like that.

I haven't tried it. I've only had Belle-Vue and Lindemans, sadly.

I did some googling and it appears that it's really average tasting. It only garnered a 77 on beeradvocate. But it's up to you if you just want a sampling of what cherry beer is kinda like. I'd suggest trying to get a bottle of Lindemans or Belle-Vue for a better first experience. But tastes differ so widely you might end up liking the Floris compared to Lindemans or Belle-Vue.

Yeah, I don't always go by those beer-rating sites. I've had beers that only got average reviews on those sites, but I thought were fantastic, and I've had beers that those sites gave really good ratings but which I thought were very average and "meh". Still, I'll have to look out for those beers. Hopefully I can find them somewhere. Thanks again.

I had an awesome steak at Applebees, and had an attractive waitress with the most awesome eyes I've seen (pale-green, something I've never seen before). Too much makeup, imo, but still attractive. Tipped extra because she was really damn good, not showing up a million times but not showing up only once or twice, either.

When I was last out to eat at Steak n' Shake, I was with my mother and this guy named Rob. Complete jackhole; an actor like myself, but with an ego through the roof, self-esteem through the basement, and every insecurity imaginable. He's a handsome guy (handsome enough to professionally impersonate both Johnny Depp and his various characters, among others; he's even been Johnny's "decoy" when he was in town), but has no luck with women because he has almost zero social skills. Meaning he tends to insult someone, either while joking around or because he can't keep his mouth shut, and then gets angry when people are offended. He's brilliant, but I hate having to hang out with him. My mom just feels sorry for him and is trying to help him with his work and social life, which is why we continue to see him damn near weekly. I have no problems telling him off, and whenever he's a jackhole (especially to me, since he tends to make fun of me a lot) I give it right back to his face until he shuts up.

Anyway, we didn't have the best time at the restaurant. It took us ages to get a seat because the manager was an idiot who had insisted on cleaning off the booth next to a clean one before seating us, then forgot to seat us entirely. Our waitress was the one who happened to notice that we were left in the corner and got us taken care of, and she did her best to handle various other problems (like taking the extra charge off Rob's bill when he complained about his upcharge fries not having enough seasoning). She also gained brownie points with us for making fun of Rob when he complained about not getting the bubble top on his milkshake because he didn't order whipped cream with his.

So as we're finishing up, my mom hands her $10 as a tip for having to deal with all the crap that night. Of all the things he could say, Rob says "Oh, I didn't contribute to that." Real smug-like, like he thinks it's a joke. And we're both aware that he's just saying this because the waitress isn't the kind of woman he'd usually be hitting on, so he thinks it's okay to be mean to her.

So I told her that Rob doesn't like women.

He wasn't pleased.

Oh so very a tangent, but was quite worth it.

My wife's water just broke. Hospital told us to wait untill the morning before coming to the maternity ward unless it seems like the baby won't wait untill the morning. ;)

Particularly good news since the caesarean birth had been scheduled for monday due to some complications but my wife was already traumatized by the previous time that had to be done and in her own words has been hoping to give birth the natural way for ten years now.

No matter what happens, no matter what my last words may end up being, I want everyone to claim that they were:
"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine."
Aww, you guys rock. :)  I feel the love... and the pitchforks and torches.  Tingly!

I say stuff like that to or about him pretty regularly now. He gets away with a lot of shit because most people are too nice to tell him off or too upset at his insults to sling any mud back at him. I'm really the only person who responds to his bullshit by sending it right back.

Congratulations, askold! Here's hoping the birth goes smoothly.

Yeah, that's my point. lol Like I'm a fan of both Woodchuck and Strongbow but if you ask other people it's supposedly wrong of me to like both of the ciders. One or the other, not both. Pfft.

But you're welcome (again). :P

But let the baby get shit on. No, seriously, they did studies and found that babies that don't get shit on have much weaker immune systems. I'm not even joking.
