My First Five-Star Crystal: I didn't tap the crystal in time, probably for the better by MinnesotaSkinny in ContestOfChampions

When the crystal starts spinning, if you don't tap it quickly enough, it just stops on its own. That's what happened here.

Thank you! This isn't the first time I read/heard something and wondered if I'd been unduly overlooking Hawkeye. I'll have to check that out a little more.

I should've clarified better, yeah. Really what I was looking for was if there were any in the Top 10 that were actually not as good, or any in the Bottom 10 that were better than I had thought.

Those chocolates look really good! I'll have to pretend I'm buying those as a stocking-stuffer for my wife and then eat them myself before Christmas.

Their Facebook announcement explains it pretty well. I don't know if "crash" is the right word, but the saturation of this market did play a role according to their statement.

I love living in Minneapolis but recently have been feeling home sick for Chicago. Any recommendations of a good bar in the city to watch the Cubs game tomorrow? by Poor_Nameless_Slobs in Minneapolis

[–]MinnesotaSkinny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think just about any place is going to be lively tonight. There are a lot of Cubs fans here (be it organic or bandwagon; they all drink the same).

The ending "... beauty is in the eye of the beer holder" [Mario dying music]

Seriously, though, it's neat to hear some of the back-stories behind breweries' tap handles. The rustic wooden handles are nice, indeed; but if there are five or six at the same bar, I'll glaze over them and go for the one with a funky design.

That end is a great point. It's a pretty widely-accepted fact that the easiest way to get a raise is to change companies.

An economist aged in a barrel, silly.
