[tiffles]

i thought we agreed that wikipedia is the devil.


apart from that.....


"two identical hydrometer readings at 24 hours apart before deciding that the fermentation has finished. To not do so may increase the risk of exploding beer bottles."

have you been in a garage of exploding beer bottles...you get out quick...they make fun noises... but then you have to clean up the mess. and well 200 bottles and their contents just went bye byes.... the cute lil MG B aint looking too good either.

Classic sign of either too much corn sugar added when bottling, or the original fermentation was incomplete at the time of bottling.

and Beano if Biff's coming...lots of Beano.

Just a big box of campfire matches will do.

dont forget the soda and LEMON. that is the original Dargie Delite!

[tiffles]

haa haa sure thing!! ah why does this board come alive when i have to go to sleep....

 

[Big Poppa]

It wont be a problem in a few months! and working for Steve you will need your beauty sleep but I fear you may have to stay on the Aussie time zone to properly interact with the dude

 

[SteveB]

Tiffles,

Working SOBII for the Dude, you may also find it useful to familiarize yourself with bail bonds, and the US justice system...

Steve-o, just made my reservations at the Days Inn. Marshia was most helpful.

I got double beds in case anybody is looking for a place to crash.

Cool Tom....double beds will come in handy to lay your bass on, teaching materials etc....

We'll be going straight through from about 8:30 am until 11:00 pm all 3 days...so get your rest for sure because you won't want to miss a minute of any of the events.

 

[tiffles]

woo im excited already!! im good for late nights and lack of sleep, ive led a billion youth camps. im so whacked today cause i spend all night outside on a payphone to germany. theres no way that im going to miss any of it!! and ive decided im not going to get jet lag.

whats the cheapest way from phoenix to dallas?

 

[Steve Dude Barr]

You can shop around on Expedia etc....but it looks like America West has the most & cheapest flights from Phoenix to DFW.

[tiffles]

i thought about train?? they any good...i have time on my hands but not a whole lotta dosh. ive bussed melbourne to toowoomba before and that was a hellish 24hours so i figure i can deal with anything...

 

[maddog]

Tiffles,

if you wanna take the train, the only option is Amtrak:

http://www.amtrak.com

Looks like you can't get from Phoenix to Dallas but you can get to Dallas from Tucson which is only a 1.5 hour drive from Phoenix.

Looks to be $98US.

Not sure I'd recommend it. Never done it personally but have heard many horror stories. They are seriously underfunded.
