Forgive me if it has already been posted, but Ninkasi's Critical Hit Barleywine is a really awesome label:

My HMO was kind enough to schedule my vasectomy for the first day of the tournament several years ago. Really was not a big deal at all. During the procedure the "tugging" sensation as the Dr. pulled on the vas so he could snip it was the worst, but I wouldn't call it pain. Sadly, no beer while watching the games…

It is pretty much the only thing that gets a 100% guaranteed recommendation from me.

Correct. The camera essentially photoshops the effect.

Thanks! Forgot to mention I took it with a Panasonic Lumix DMC-FZ200 using the built in miniature setting.

Here is one done with the camera. I would have entered but I did not have the full size photos on my work computer and forgot about it before I got home. Deschutes River Canyon, Oregon.

I had mine done a few years ago on the Thursday that opened the tournament. I didn't even attempt to schedule it then, my HMO planned it all out. Couldn't have asked for a better recuperation.

Personally, I go to Mexican restaurants/bars for St. Patrick's day and Irish bars for Cinco de Mayo. I like to drink, just not with too many of you people.

Very excited about this. One of my favorite SF books of all time.

Now you just have to add a bar to your wonderful chart for the arrest rates for members of Congress.

I have to think the second view including the wipe-out and slight delay before the upraised fist would make an even better GIF.

You are right, that was too harsh. My bad.

OK, that is complete horseshit. All of my dogs have been spayed before their first heat. Is Sarah Michelle Gellar the Jenny McCarthy of pet ownership now?

Another good eagle cam here, but it is about a month early for them:

Life's a piece of shit, when you look at it...

I prefer Red Fang, myself:

Exactly! My kid and the neighbors spend more time arguing about whether or not they got shot then they actually do playing. Lots of Lawyerball going on.

There are a few down here in Portland, but mostly in the 'burbs (Hillsboro). Oddly enough, there is one smack-dab right in the middle of Hipster Central - the Hawthorne district. Have no idea how they stay in business.

They actually started in the little town of Sisters over in Central Oregon. Figured if Deschutes could open a brew pub in the Pearl District, why couldn't they open a coffee shop.

I see your vertical lift and raise (pun intended) you a second deck that lifts independently:
