Believe me, this is not a consistent situation.

I’m on my second Olde English Forty in two days. It’s kinda cool. I guess I’d talk it up if it came up during a casual conversation. I just like drinking malt liquor while watching Twins baseball, what can I say?

I should drink one of these every night. Maybe I shouldn’t. It’s hard to say. It probably depends on the evening more than anything.

As an afterthought….

Last night after I finished off my Olde English HG800, I browsed eBay and ended up dropping 14 bucks for an Olde English 800 baseball cap. I hope I receive it soon. It’s being delivered to my office. That will be some good subject material for office conversation, that is for sure. Guaranteed.

New Rally Cap?

I can’t wait until I receive my hat. That is going to be awesome. I’m going to wear it while I disc golf. That should be fun. I’ll probably wear the hat at other time as well. Maybe during Twins games. Maybe the hat will turn out to be one of those mythical rally caps for Twins baseball.

I could only hope.

Yes, I do own a 75 gallon marine aquarium. 2 clownfish, 1 firefish, 1 blue tang, and some crabs and snails. It’s a good fish tank setup.

I’ve moved all my fish tank blogging over to lukesquarium.com. My fish tank blogging deserved it’s own web site. I thought so.

Yeah.

This is good stuff. I probably drink too many Olde English beers to make any type of excuse about drinking them. I like the flavor. Haha, yeah I actually put that into print.

HG800′s are better

There is something about the flavor of an Olde English HG800. They are better than the original Olde English 800′s. They are stronger. They taste a little funkier.

Cats Like Olde English HG800 Caps.

My cats like it when I twist the cap off of an Olde English HG800 and toss it down the hall. The cap from and HG800 is the best cat toy ever. I don’t know why they like it so much. Cat’s are weird.

When the apartment is cleaned, 40 ounce beer caps are found everywhere. Under couches, in couches, under cabinets, under other stuff. And the cats are the reason that all the caps ended up under stuff as opposed to in the garbage.

Hopefully they give the girl something cool, like a space shuttle ride or something.

A Bahamian girl’s seaborne school project has landed on the sandy doorstep of NASA.

United Space Alliance worker Jill Vogel found a message in a bottle from a student at the Holy Name Catholic School in Bimini, about 220 nautical miles southeast of Titusville and closest to Florida of all the Bahamas islands.

According to Wired, it might be.

After consuming several beers, you decide that it is not necessary to actually access your company’s rich internal archive of game assets and beautiful 2-D renderings of the characters and world. No, you may as well just grab an image from IGN, complete with their site’s watermark in the right-hand corner. You then spend some time carefully removing the IGN watermark. Just kidding! You leave it in there, because whatever.

As I subtly laugh to my self in my studio, I realize how funny this is.

Wow, what an embarrassment. Who let that one slip through the cracks? This is why I like the Internet. The smallest stuff like this can spread like wildfire among the masses with just a moments notice.

Being a Twins fan can be tough.

I watched Johan Santana and Torii Hunter (and to a lesser degree, Carlos Silva) walk from the Twins this year. You may or may not be big fan of any of those players, but that was a meaty part of the Twins right there.

Even Carlos Silva, the third, lesser regarded player mentioned, was a very important part of the Twins pitching staff last year. Check out these stats. This shows that Silva covered a huge portion of the total pitching time of the Twins. And then, of course, it also completely stands out how important Santana was to the Twins pitching staff. That guy was never on downtime. And 2007 was one of Johan Santana’s down years.

Here’s the Twins 2007 Pitching Stats, from Baseball-Reference.com:

And now I have managed to wander into paragraph #4 before actually talking about the player in the headline.

Carlos Gomez is the guy that is propped up as the return savior of the disappearance of all these guys.

He’s the only guy in the trade that is on the Twins MLB club roster right now.

He’s playing hard, showing great promise, and making a good presence. This alone is helping the Twins convince the rest of the world that trading Santana might not have been that bad of an idea.

Yeah.

If Gomez is running the bases, he’s usually got dirt on his Jersey. That has to be a good sign. He’s also filling Torii Hunter’s shoes out in center field. It’s not an easy slot to fill.

And, not to mention, Gomez is wearing Brad Radke’s number.

When Brad Radke retired in December 2006, the Twins didn’t reassign his jersey No. 22. But new Twins outfielder Carlos Gomez will wear it this season.

If Gomez pans out and keeps up his exciting reputation, he’ll solidify the Twins hustle approach and be the payoff for losing all of Hunter, Santana and Silva.
