Cold?! That's so wrong...

Happy Paddy's to you all! I'll be enjoying mine with some fine Bushmills.

Patrick's Blessings to all here. To observe the occasion, I'll set aside drink for the day, not fight with my neighbor, and catch Noon Mass at St. Mary's (and hope lightning doesn't strike the place).

Dude, Guinness is supposed to be served cold. Read up.

Myth Number 2: Guinness is supposed to be warm ... False
Guinness reports its draught is best stored at 42.8 degrees. Your average fridge is between 35 and 38, which is a bit on the chilly side. Unfortunately, most beer coolers in bars are even colder to accommodate our thirst for "ice cold" beer. Regardless, 43 degrees is neither warm nor room temperature. The obvious solution is to order two at a time, so one is always warming up!

A belated happy St. Patricks day to you all! I hope yours was as fun as mine.

I got to drink some good beer, eat some good food, and see some phenomenal Irish dancing (as in, one of the champions in her category from here: http://www.nanationals.net/results.htm )

Holy craps there were a lot of curls in those pictures. And here I was thinking you went to a strip club or something.

Haha, I suppose 6 degrees is more like street temperature. Still, not as cold as your average miller's.
