Just thought I'd show you a pic of a paint job I did on my spare tire cover lately. I was just going for low-gloss black with a splash of something a little more visible in the dark, but it came out all kinds of Halloween. Fair enough.

The Wez

I don't have much to update, although plenty is going on. I'm feeling a little sick today so to cheer us all up, here's a picture from a sporting event I attended recently:

I don't get to go to many games, and I don't follow college football very closely, but I was surprised by the hair fashions of the mountain men of Colorado, which included dreads, mohawks, and full on Fabios. If this is a young Vernon Wells in the center of the picture, then Mad Max is truly a vision of the future. I always wondered where his gear came from.

Death Valley Days

Well, 31 ain't so bad. Parents came up and we took a trip to Death Valley. That's not ominous at all for a birthday trip. The weather was great and we had a fun ride around the valley. I don't know what those pioneers were complaining about, I got great gas mileage.

Worst Witch for the Win

I have been wishing my co-workers a Happy Halloween with this delightful desktop image courtesy of Tim Curry.

Feel the Love

The brew is on!

Last weekend I got to attend the annual Las Vegas beer tasting event HOPS. This year it was at the newly renovated Planet Hollywood ( the old Aladdin ).

There were some great booths

good food and even a band

and the tasting glass was actually glass. The annual BrewFest in Athens, GA had degraded to cracked plastic shot glasses the last time I went.

I'm glad I got to enjoy some more western-centric brews, but I did miss my Eastern staples like ATL Brewing Company's Red Bricks, Sweetwater, Copper Creek, and of course Terrapin
