Draft Kit, New Beer Kit, Birthday Party

As a present to myself I finally bought the draft system so instead of bottling my beer after fermenting I can now put it directly into my keg and force carbonate it. I'M EXCITED! This has been one of my brewing goals for awhile and everything is finally falling into place. This next beer I will be brewing will be a Plain American Ale, this should be a light, crisp, refreshing beer and something that can be enjoyed during anytime of the year. I kinda wanted this to take place a month ago so it would be ready for my birthday party but oh well. Anyway I plan on documenting my entire process and helping anyone who's interesting in getting into this hobby!

Birthday in a couple weeks, present for myself

Well my birthday is coming up and I've come up with what I think is a great present to myself. As of yesterday, I will workout every single day until the day of my party. No bad food, no alcohol, nothing that will limit my goal of feeling great for my party. Hopefully it pays off and it will also help me get into a normal workout routine. Obviously I plan to continue working out after but I'm hoping this gets me going! So instead of buying yourself something you prolly don't need, like I usually do, give yourself something good!

The Black Crowes: Shake Your Money Maker

If you're from the country and you enjoy rock n' roll there's a very good chance you've heard of The Black Crowes. This has to be one of my all time favorite albums mostly because of its twangy southern rock sound. It's unlike anything I've ever heard.

Take a listen to a few of their songs from this album and you might just fall in love.

Motorcycle ride to Bloomington, IL

This weekend my friend and I had a nice 200 mile round trip ride to Bloomington and we averaged 49mpg. Here's some pictures.

My friend firing my Ruger SR40c, 9 Rounds

The first time my friend fired a handgun.

Ruger SR40c Video

Here's a video of the first rounds being fired through my Ruger SR40c.

I fired a couple quick little burst and for right out of the box it was pretty accurate and felt great. It should be a bit more accurate after I get some more rounds through it.

Ruger sr40c review and video

I picked up a Ruger scr40c a little while ago and decided to make a video of the first rounds being fired. I'll have the video up soon and write a review of my first impressions.
