I.....HATE.....LOST

So my lovely wife just notified me that LOST is moving to 10pm when it resumes on February 7th. They want to avoid competing with American Idol. I don't even know what to say. First, they kill off Eko. Next, they focus much of their energy during the last couple episodes on some ridiculous (and dirty - not in the kinky way - the real filth way) sexual relationship between Kate and Sawyer. Now they have the nerve to alienate their audience even MORE by moving it to a timeslot NO ONE WATCHES. I'll follow Mike's lead and watch it online.

I'm trying St. Feiullien Christmas Ale for the first time. I mistakenly told my brother to pick me up two bottles thinking he was getting Gouden Carolus Noel. Needless to say, St. Feiullien is a subpar Christmas brew, regardless of their 95 rating on ratebeer. It just doesn't have the maltiness or spiciness of some of the others I enjoy.

The new year's party will have a decent winter beer selection. I'm thinking of getting a case of the Gouden Carolus Grand Cru for the occasion, as it will surely be a crowd favorite.

Something I need to do before I die: Spend Christmas in an swiss alpine village. Rick Steeves had his annual 'Christmas in Europe' show on last night and he spent half of it in a tiny village high in the swiss alps. Oh man, put some lederhosen on me and call me Samiclaus.

Does Rick Steeves have the best job ever? The answer is Yes.
