Geology has absolutely nothing to do with either of those

 

After initial inspection of the hood (only dry part of the truck right now), I think we're good.

 

Oh, I know but I like rocks and dirt. And it seems like a pretty interesting field.

The thing is, I'd like to know what I'm doing. If some emergency happens, I want to be able to throw my paramedic skills into good use. But geology has always interested me since I was a kid and I'd enjoy learning about it more.

 

Well if you have any questions about it let me know if I can help obviously.

 

Thanks Keith.

By the way, what's your favorite beer?

And you've helped me pick my dinner selection. Dominos pizza

 

I have several favorites and I'm always striving to try more I've never had before. It's a passion of mine, got it from my Dad

Right now my favorite is Lagunitas Censored Copper Ale.

Some of my other faves.
-Left Hand Polestar Pilsener
-Real Ale Alamo Golden Ale
-Kettlehouse Cold Smoke Scotch Ale
-Palma Louca Pilsener
-Anchor Steam Beer

 

Freschetta in the oven

 

I just wanted to say, I like your sig

I haven't started yet, spy but I'm planning on trying as many different ones as I can when I can. I don't know much, but I'm always willing to learn

 

For the future, the best way to learn a bunch of different beers, and what styles you like, is to go to places that allow you to "make your own 6 pack". Then you can buy one each of 6 different styles of beer. Do that 5-10 times over a couple of months and you will find out what styles (lagers, wheats, IPAs, APAs, pilseners, stouts, porters, ambers, abbeys, browns, etc) that fit your tastes, and then eventually which companies make your favorite of those types.

I've found that my tates have changed over the years. I used to like wheats and dark beers, and now I'm more into the medium bodied and the crisp, lighter varieties.

 

Mmmmm.... Pizza

 

I read a few pages back....

1) Screw the liberal douche bags at Google.

2) USMC Infantry. Best four years of my life; period.

3) Marines is spelled with a capital "M" fyi; thanks for fixing yourself.

4) Keith- what did you think of the Steam Beer? Where do you find it?


Overall today wasn't bad; really looking forward to my vacation.

 

Zech, I fixed it. I apologize

 

I love it. It's made in San Francisco but I've found it at specialty beer shops around here. Specs, central market, and whole foods will have it too.

 

Just busting your balls; just don't do it again.

Cool. I joined a home brew club last month and a steam beer is on the list of beers to brew this year. I'm hoping to have all the parts/pieces to start brewing later this Fall.

 

I'm not sure what about steam beer makes it so difficult, but Anchor Brewing is among the only breweries in the world that makes one.

It's an interesting flavor. An ale-like body and color, but very little hop bite.

 

Noted




In our attempt to change a strut on a 2012 Nissan Versa, we found that shit doesn't work like it should. And ratchet straps don't work as a spring compressor. Who knew? I left and they still hadn't gotten it off yet.

 

I have witnessed ratchet straps work as spring compressors. Not that it was a good idea, but it did work.

 

Apparently not on a Versa…

It wasn't a good idea at all, but he wanted it done tonight. His old strut was pretty bent to where his spare tire was rubbing when he turned, and it wasn't even on full lock.

 

So why were you working on a 2012 versa? Warranty?

 

It wasn't covered apparently. That's what I told him he should have done was try and see if it was under warranty. It probably wasn't covered because he did the damage himself.
