I'm sitting here in my beloved neighborhood bar, Tiga. Thinking about how much beer one city could possibly produce. Last I heard we were running neck and neck with Cologne for the "most breweries within city limits in the world" award. Yep, some cities have world-class museums. Some have world-class corporate power (holding nose). Some have monumental cityscapes reaching in vain for the sky. All of our "indicators" seem to be pointing in a different direction. May I raise a beer to that?

Anyways, I've been taking advantage of the recent spell of dry weather by avoiding the indoors as much as possible.
