Snow!!!!

It really fucking irritates me when people flip their shit because it's snowing. The receptionist at my work pages the entire office to excitedly announce that flurries are falling. A girl in one of my college courses scared the hell out of everyone when she decided to scream at the sight of snowflakes out the window. I mean, it's pretty and all, but once you're out of school, snow delays and cancellations don't really happen that much. What's so fucking magical about frozen rain? The crowds at the grocery store stocking up on bread and milk, or the dangerous roads?

What the fuck is wrong with people?

They want to press charges against Walmart in relation to the death of one of its employees during a Black Friday stampede yesterday. I don't disagree, but what about all the assholes who ran over him into the store and started shopping?
I know it's not really feasible to try to convict people caught up in a stampede of involuntary manslaughter, and judging by their behavior before, during and after the incident, I don't think anyone in the stampede has conscience enough to be bothered by what they were part of.
I guess what I'm saying is that I fucking hate people.

Beer Review

Lancaster Brewing Company is a local brewery with a fine assortment of beers. Personally i've always enjoyed the milk stout. Recently (yesterday) I bought a case of their Strawberry Wheat beer. Brewed without preservatives, it's a nice little wheat beer, with strawberry flavoring added. It's got a nice mellow wheat beer flavor, with no real hops. Perhaps a bit light for my taste, as I am more used to darker fair, it seems a grand beer to have for a bit of refreshment. Although at first the strawberry isn't immediately noticeable, Two other samplers and I agreed the more of them you drank, the more you could taste the suttle strawberry flavor glossed ever so delicately over the beer taste. Clocking in at 4.7% alcohol per volume, even a total lightweight like myself can easily drink, by my estimate, 8 or 9 and still get up the next morning hangover free for thanksgiving diner. Though perhaps not quite cheap tasting enough for alcoholics, and not hardcore enough for the snobbiest of beer snobs. At around $28 a case, it's a great value for the occasional drinker, whom is in the mood for a nice bottle of home grown goodness.
