Books and Beer

I have been really rolling through books since the beginning of the year. And I have smoothly also not written about any of them. I mentioned before that I would do a review a day. Guess I over estimated my abilities. But on that note, there are reviews coming. I have the following books to review:

Books

• Gentlemen of the Road by Michael Chabon
• Elric: The Making of a Sorcerer by Michael Moorcock
• The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly
• Shelf Monkey by Corey Redekop
• Pinball Theory of the Apocalypse by Jonathan Selwood
• Strange Skies by Matt Marinovich
• A Spot of Bother by Mark Haddon

Of course, there are also 4 Audiobooks as well that I have listened too on the way to and from work. Geez. I am way behind.

Books and Beer
The last one mentioned – A Spot of Bother- my Brother-in-law Scott and I are reading at the same time to get together and discuss over beer. The beer will be brought to reflect something in the book. Should be interesting.

Beer
And on the beer note, Brian and I bottled the Honey Oatmeal Stout on Sunday morning. A repetitive but simple task that seemed to go without problem. Brian seems to think so too. Here I am in all my production line glory:

More Beer

Brian also judged and faired rather well this past weekend at the War of the Worts XIII with his Tripel placing 2nd and his Imperial Stout – known as Vader – placed 3rd. NICE!
