Its funny because I work for a fundamentally German company (HQ in Frankfurt area) so I travel in Germany a lot for the past 20 years and I don't remember seeing fruit in beer, ever...

Also, some German colleagues came over to England last month and they tried the HB pilsner on tap in the pub we went to for dinner and moaned like a Guiness drinker moans when he drinks stuff not brewed in Dublin.

Oaked Arrogant Bastard Ale FTW.


Regarding the girl... I celebrated my 14th wedding anniversary last week, so this is from the depths of my long-term memory, but anyway.. Act like you like her. A lot. (Assuming that you do of course...) Flirt with her. Compliment her. When you see her again, offer to give her a back rub or a foot massage, which is cool because it's fairly "safe" for her, and if you do it right, it will relax her and it can be as sensuous and/or intimate as the two of you want it to be. When I got involved with my first serious girlfriend in college, our first real intimacy was a back and shoulder rub that I gave her in the middle of my friend's dorm room surrounded by like four other college students.

I have been with my wife for over 16 years, married for 10+, so I have been out of the scene for quite some time. I am not sure I could offer much. The only thing I have is that communication is key.

Long distance is hard. Good Luck. Thanks for the update.

Congrats on the 14. Thats pretty sweet.

You still haven't had a bagel if she took you to Panera. That is just a roll with a hole in it.

That and press her on the meeting back up drunk Saturday and commence groping IMO.

Now I'm going to be randomly shouting COMMENCE GROPING at home. And work?

For some reason the local grocery store bought a few 4-packs of Great Divide Yeti Imperial Stout (http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/158/12013), which of course no one bought so they marked them down to half price and I bought 4 of them. It's not really my thing, pretty heavy, but I like having one every now and again (and at 10% ABV 1 is actually like 2-3 of many beers).

Bingo, that is number one thing in a women's eyes.

Also, after reading Camz story, I think it was played pretty well. The early kiss thing most times ruins it (makes you look too clingy), unless you're looking for sex (then most times she is too). I think you fell right in the median
(clingy-----YOU-------Cocky), which is pretty well played imo.

Most obvious time for a kiss ever, imo.

I've never tried that, but I'll watch for it. I have had the Old Rasputin Russian Imperial Stout and the Stone Imperial Russian Stout, which are both massively heavy. I usually lean toward seriously bitter "hop bomb" types of beer (like IPAs), but those stouts are both pretty good.

The Stone one is 10.5% ABV and I've only seen it in a 22 ounce bottle. Better be committed before you open one, unless you have somebody to share it with...

LC = relationship/beer advice imo

and holy ****...no draft talk?

saints trading their 1st next year and 2nd this year to move up and pick up Ingram?

I am still on the fence about this move. Lol saintsreport crashed due to server overload.

Steve Porter draft remix. Loved it.

Heh. just read all that. She liked you and wanted you to kiss her, and yeah, you kinda botched it, sry.

Balance is important in a relationship, so it's a good thing to not need to be "the man" 24/7, but there are times where you really need to be confident and take control. Those moments are usually the ones that stick with them. My advice would be to not get too wrapped up in her since you're far away. You'll wind up stressing yourself out, and then projecting it onto her at some point, or over-thinking, and making an awkward mess.

It sounds like she had a good time, and wants to see you, so that's good. If you really do like her, I'd say the sooner you see her so you can remedy your mistake ( essentially not assuring her you're into her, aside from the whole chemistry feel out ) the better. Don't force it tho.

According to CBS Pete Prisco
No. 28: Saints select: Mark Ingram, RB, Alabama Grade C-
Im not sure about this pick for the Saints. Don't they have guys like this already? They had other more pressing needs. And they gave up a 2012 first-round pick?

As a Pats fan. . . this is par for the course. . I see the Saints picking in the 20's next year and the Pats get another good value pick in the 2nd. 3 second rounders this year and hopefully one pans out.

My dad wants to get drunk and pretend that New England had New Orleans' draft. about 9 hours ago

looooool

so is there anyone that's drafted to a team that i should actually watch? It seems like every draft pick of 2009 played maybe 10 hours on their teams except for that lions d guy who owned people, oh and stafford actually played a bunch I think.
I watch a lot of football obv.

Yeah that lions d guy went to Nebraska!

[ ] Stafford played a bunch

ceegee prob thinkin about bradford...poor stafford can't catch a break with injuries.

Ceegee if you need a team to watch/root for start watching the Saints obv. They pulled the 2nd rated DE and the #1 rated RB in the draft last night in the 1st round

A football game is is divided into 4- 15 minute quarters.
10 Hours would be the equal to 10 full games playing every play.
Most players play either offense or defense with some of those playing special teams.
The season is 16 regular season games.
I am confusing myself.
Choose New Orleans for getting Markingram.

I'm from new york.
Is this prince guy truly promising?
Who did the Jets acquire?

Probably a kicker or some ****. Loljetsament.

But seriously, some Muslim defensive tackle who is not worth getting excited about as a casual fan.

Prince is intriguing. But if you're trying to be both a Jets and a Giants fan at the same time then you're doing it wrong.
