I agree, ABInBev ownership may not hurt quality. It will hurt the small guys as they continually monopolize shelf space for their products. Example, bottle shop allotment for BCBS by Goose Island is tied to how much of their IPA is sold. If ABInBev gives out coolers, they're not going to let an independent stock it.

Habanero Sculpin is also a good cooking beer. Nice addition to chili, etc.

or have Meatloaf show up as her jilted lover.

I'm trying to remember the book (without actually putting the effort into re-reading it). I seem to remember Wednesday saying he or they could see the future but there were grey areas they couldn't see. Why Anansi could see what he saw but Wednesday doesn't know how his plan will turn out.

Didn't Media correct Shadow and refer to herself as Lucy Ricardo?

Agree. O'so and Central Waters are among the best in Wisconsin right now. New Glarus has all the rep.

Just hope the rebellion doesn't have an employee that needs my seat on the ride.

Wil Wheaton 2020!

My last bottle of CBS, opened last month, tasted like Andes mints. Six months earlier, another CBS bottle was still great. So my aging timetable is certainly going to be less that six years from now on.

Richmond is turning out great beer. I knew of Hardywood (it seems all of their barrel aged beers are fantastic) but learned about The Veil and The Answer in the past year. Anyone that has a chance should go to the festival in Richmond.

RE: The bird. Any chance it wasn't a robot bird but the repairman was reanimating a dead bird?

I didn't think flashback either. On top of that, i thought the tree where Cassidy buried the bodies was under a tree very similar to the hanging tree in the opening sequence. I don't know if it was just to tie that early scene to something in the modern story line or if we are supposed to know it is the same tree.

Still would like to see 2061 made into a movie. 3001 probably cannot be done well. I enjoyed all of the books and both movies.

Blaine the Mono will be a Lincoln.

I really liked 'No Small Affair', too. I also stumbled into, working at a video store. After watching everything you wanted to see or knew about, you grabbed anything to kill time. This became part of the weekly rotation of movies. Not sure many people know about it, let alone have watched it. Thanks for…

It's a role you were born to play.

It would have lengthened the series but i think i would have preferred that to carving initials into a tree

Potential Spoiler

Spoilers as well (maybe) : It has been some time since I read the book, but isn't a big part of the way Al convinces Jake is Al tells the story of the woman shot in the hunting accident and how he changed her life but now that Jake has gone back, he's reset it? I guess they needed to shave some time from the novel so…

We may be the only three that have read Duma Key. Oh, there is another. I gave it to a friend and he liked it as well. The Stand was my favorite book until this one.
