John, I thought I clicked on the button to alert me to your reviews a long time ago...when I just went to your profile to get your email address, I noticed the alert wasn't set...no wonder I never got notices of your reviews! duh!

One more thing...

Education is NOT everything. I know a few 'drop outs' that have way more going on upstairs than some PhDs I've met...

Well.. I'm a drop out too... with a Masters Degree in 2 areas.

Damn high school for branding me...

One thing you forget. A GED over-rules drop out status...and a college degree, yes even an AS, over-rules a GED. You remind me of those mullet-heads that still live their lives around their one TD in high school football.

Good god man. You really need to get a life of your own. I never "dropped out" of high school, John. I went the full twelve years as I've explained below. Then went on to college, where I met you, remember? I recall you wanted this "dropout" to go take math lab exams in your name because you couldn't pass basic math classes. Long division being beyond your ken, as it were.

You are right about Beer Camp, it was March, but I guess I was thinking it was a bit later than that. You have me, Sherlock!

Oh, and is the vulgarity really necessary? Can't you be civilized even in a public forum?

Bruguru,

You write great beer reviews and you have NEVER pointed me in the wrong direction when it comes to the elixir of life.

I guess some folks don't like themselves (or play with others well) all that much.

As they say in the Russian Marine Corps, "toughky, sh*tsky."

Nice write off....

I mean why not just say "I never graduated from high school". Why lie about that?

Where did I lie? The question was "School", John. I went to West Warwick. Through my senior year. I was an honor student. I hit a wild streak. Failed 12th grade English. Got my GED. Got a college degree. You need to get a life.

Now, where is the "lie"?

Summer memory: Oldenberg’s Beer Camp!

Aw, man! When I was a kid, all we had was Scout camp. You got to go to beer camp. Not fair. Not fair at all.

Nice write up.

I guess you have a point! At 212 degrees it might not be so good!

I counted no less than 42 references to beer in there...

BTW, have you noticed how many people answer that they hate beer in their W/O? It's depressing!
