The politics of beer.

It’s often joked that alcohol, tobacco and firearms should be a convenience store and not a government agency. I call my basement the bureau because it’s where I keep my beer fridge, humidor, ammo locker and gun safe. Anyhoo, spent the last couple of days getting organized: After my safe bleg, I settled on a […]

In TN, you can drink in a car, provided you’re not driving. But a Republican wants to change that: Right now passengers can crack a beer while riding in a car in Tennessee. A new bill would make that illegal, moving Tennessee in line with the majority of other states in the country. “Right now […]

For when you really have to get someone a beer:

Shiloh Brew and Chew in my town says come on in and bring a gun: “As the owner, I wanted to stand my ground. I have that constitutional right. If you like it, that’s great, if you don’t, I’m sorry for you. I can’t change who I am,” said Sharma Floyd, with Shiloh Brew and […]

I never cared much for it. Over-hyped? Maybe. I’ve not heard the term Painted Ordnance in a while. Also, it’s kind of big.

Yup. Boy, you break ranks or do something different on the blog and readers react as though you specifically targeted them for insult. Personally, I like varying opinions. Echo chambers aren’t fun. Somebody send Tam some beer.

I was having a discussion with a friend of mine over some beer about guns. He’s definitely pro-gun but not a gun guy. And one point he made was that weapons protected by the constitution should be weapons that can be used for defensive purposes. As such, M-16s fit the bill. But brass knuckles or […]

For Father’s Day, the wife got me a Sodastream. It makes sodas, or as we Southerners say, cokes. Anyway, it’s great. At first, my experience with it wasn’t good because I ordered the sample pack of flavors. And they tasted like ass. Seems all of them are sweetened with sucralose, the same foul tasting, repugnant […]

A beer can launcher.

Have a safe one and, in between BBQ and beer, remember what it’s about.

I was unable to attend the NRA Annual Meeting this year. I was a little busy. But one thing that always happens is there’s usually a protest. So, they had one in Houston. 12 protesters and 70,000 (though I have heard the number 90K kicked around) and who does the press interview? One of the […]

Seriously, I like them. I’m not alone. But haters gonna hate. Also, you can make your own.

Constitutionally protected. What, are you supposed to remove the guns when you open a beer?

I would bet one beer that neither fast and furious nor Benghazi come up. Well, the latter might but don’t expect much. Also, Hillary taking one for the team? Not likely. Liberal questions favored by 2:1 LOL Moderator to disregard debate agreement. Actually, I rather like this one.

So, for those who don’t know, a local frat boy got dumped at the hospital at dark thirty with a BAC of 0.4 and, per the police, had wounds consistent with sexual assault. 0.4, by the way, is about the point where alcohol starts getting fatal. Anyhoo, the police then went to the frat house […]

Yesterday, I had lunch and beer at Buffalo Wild Wings while watching some college football. I never checked in or mentioned the place on facebook that I know of. But, suddenly, on facebook’s spam section of “pages you may like”, the top spot is Buffalo Wild Wings.

I’ll spend it grilling some grub! Have a good one and be safe if you have green beer.

Hold my beer and watch this.

A bill banning beer sales at self-check out. You know, at the grocer, if I buy beer it flags it so that someone can come verify my age. Just saying. It occurs to me our legislators have too much free time on their hands.

In FL, a bill to allow soldiers, regardless of age, to get carry permits. But anti-gunners want to disarm soldiers. Next, they may let 19 year old combat veterans buy beer.

No, it didn’t make beer. It made multicellular life.

Hanson (yeah, that Hanson) has their own beer: MMMHop.

A list of yummy. I don’t know that I’ve blogged it but my facebook friends know that I have taken to making my own beer and making wine for the wife. I don’t drink wine myself. Anyway, tomorrow, I’ll begin making my first pumpkin beer. It will contain roasted pumpkin, brown sugar, and some molasses. […]

The Minnesota government has been shut down a few weeks. No one noticed until the beer licenses stopped. A possible due process violation?

This started as a comment here but turned long and their spam filter hates me. First, someone is actually arguing about catching a dropped gun. Hey, if that’s your thing, go for it. But I’m not going to the range with you. Sure, your old gallery gun may fire when dropped. But my Glock definitely […]

To hold your kids’ Hello Kitty and Cars magnets: From Drop Box And alphabet blocks too! By the way, in my house that is known as The Bureau. You see, on top of my safe is my humidor and to the left is my beer fridge. So, it’s the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.

Heh.
