Sunday evening we marked the end of the Christmas season by hosting our annual Epiphany open house. It was a fun-filled evening with good friends, good food, good conversation, and of course good beer.

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Jan 7th, 2013 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

I am not one for blaming the victim, but there’s also something to be said for using common sense and taking responsibility. I was skimming through the local “Police Blotter” and noticed a recurring theme.

LARCENY:

Some people will say anything.
Some people will believe anything.
Together, they make a dangerous combination that will destroy our Nation.

By the way, The American Hunters and Shooters Association is a front organization for gun control a…



Porter, No Ice

Just because you call your beer a “Winter Porter,” doesn’t mean it should come on ice.

Colleen and I were out doing some shopping Saturday evening, and decided to stop in at The Pub and take advantage of the Saturday “Burger Night” special. I wasn’t s…



Oh, The Absurdity

Welcome 2013

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Jan 1st, 2013 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

It’s a bit cliché, but I really do feel like I just wrote the 2012 New Year post. It’s been a fun and interesting year to the say the least. The 459 Musings that I posted in 2012 covered a wide variety of topics, as promised last January 1. I wan…



Ending 2012 With A Bang

By From http://www.musingsoverapint.com/ • Dec 31st, 2012 • Category: Blog Entries.Local

Actually, many bangs. I had an email over the weekend from a friend who’s gotten interested in shooting recently. He was letting me know he had picked up a SIG P232 in .380 ACP. I arranged to meet him at the range this afternoon. I was already excited …
