    It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.

    Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

    IF it is designed based on you, it is mostly nuts, a little flake, sour, a tad abrasive, and full of something.

    (I guess I'm not getting any favors from you this month)

    Congratulations!

    You've earned it!

    ...and is Arrogant Bastard beer named in honour of you too?

    I feel slighted by your use of the word "tad"......

    Consider that a fine accolade and a badge of honor, Uncle Bob.

    Gee, Bob, my post #2 was terribly insensitive and probably crushed your fragile ego. I suppose
    that I wrecked your day with my unthoughtful attack on your personality. You probably are sobbing
    right now and will most likely not sleep because of me. But what the heck, my post was pretty much
    true.

    jb, I thought that you claimed that honor/honour when we first saw that ale when you were here in 2014, or that you knew the guy who it must honor/honour? Must be the CRS again....

    In hindsight, jb, perhaps what I recall is Rosie's comment when you carried a sixer back to the mini-van and she said something like, "Arrogant Bastard? Well, I know who that's named for!!" with a laugh & a look. Could be that she had someone else in mind back in NZ....., but then again......
