Our local chapter of Drinking Liberally will be meeting at a special place and time tonight: it will start at 7:00, at the American Legion Beer Garden at the Stevens County Fair. After everyone has had enough beer, we will adjourn to the Tilt-A-Whirl to relive those sensations we all experienced in the 2004 elections.

This is the week of the Stevens County Fair, right here in bucolic Morris, Minnesota. It starts on Wednesday, 9 August and runs through Sunday the 13th, so you all still have time to start heading out this way. It's your classic rural fair: there will be accordions, deep-fried anything on a stick…
Ole and Lena's hot dish on a stick probably is explosive if you like to ride on a tilt-a-whirl afterwards. But what do you do if you're far from St. Paul?
Never fear.
There is more to life than hot dish.
I've always known that there were fun chemistry experiments that could be done with peeps…
Karl J. Mogel was there last night at Booksmith in Haight-Ashbury, and he's got a long rundown on the talk, plus lotsa pictures like the one above. Check it out.
Meanwhile, Brian from Backseat Driving was there the night before out in Mountain View, and also has some reactions. FYI Brian: I wasn't…
Renowned writer and international advocate for beer, Michael Jackson, died at his home in London on Wednesday night/Thursday morning. He was 65 and had been suffering from Parkinson's disease, but the cause of death is believed to be a heart attack.
Simply put, Mr Jackson did for beer what fellow…
You mean doubt, thrill, elation, then despair followed by nausea?
Did I mention yet how sad I am that we're missing the twinkies?
After everyone has had enough beer
Is that even possible?
I've heard of having too much beer (very rarely), but having had "enough"?
hmm.
Look out below!
You can never have enough beer: like Ichthyic said it's either too much or too little!
But a lot of people can't stop at too little so they end up waking up ten hours later in bed with a woman who is not their wife.
Even the ladies.

Here is a topic of discussion for you, your own little "River City" 30 miles from Minneapolis. In this case Elk River.
"A small start-up bank in Elk River Minnesota has seen 100 people accept Jesus Christ as their Lord during business hours. 70 people have been healed through prayer at this bank. And the bank's deposits have ranked it as one of the fastest-growing start-up banks in the history of Minnesota, resulting in a 10-page story in New York Times Magazine.
An assembly of teens at the Elk River high school was followed by an evening program where the Gospel was shared and resulted in amazing attendance of over 800 youth with over 100 making a commitment to Jesus Christ that night."
At the high school!

My biochemistry daughter is wondering if you'll be gracing the Twin Cities DL either of the next two weeks. She's finally (a) old enough to attend, and (b) in town on a couple of Thursdays. My artsy daughter just wants you to keep posting pretty pictures of monsters of the sea, and could care less which DL you attend.
I don't think so -- my life is an ever-acceleratingly busy mess for the next few weeks. Classes start on 28 August! Aaaack!
Tilt-a-Whirl. My favorite ride. Sounds like a blissful evening for the liberal hordes of Morris and surrounds. The Lane County fair starts next week so we will get a chance to drink and tilt ourselves soon.
Party on.
