That's my fucking sweet spot right in that zone. Trick shots, jumping the ball over other balls the lot. My game goes down hill rapidly after any more though. Nice, I wish I could play pool like that. Spent some formative years in a pool hall but never got any good. Trick shots - right on. How does one get good at trick shots - do you just observe others and understand the skills? Do you buy a DVD? Wish I knew that stuff! I am the same with educating MAGAs and punching-up content. But any more pints and its game over. Edited September 23, 2019 by soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soon Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 The City is planing to make a see-through-ice igloo bar!!! There is a canal running through the city-centre that is popular for skating on in the winter. People commute to work on it, but even more its used for recreation and theres already food and hot chocolate for sale. But now we get an igloo bar!!!!! A good Canadian whiskey will warm you right up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soon Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Some regional and local brews for this evening. The porter has lots of toasty chocolate notes. Dont believe I've had the pleasure of the dry hopped sour by Block 3. Vimy cream ale to support the troops. Also patriotic in that our cream ale is way better then the US cream ale. Also, clean your windows @EvanG 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not as hipster looking as the other two is a bonus as well. He looked super tipsy - likely tried to drink his previous amount after having abstained. I thought he was holding a light sabre Honestly I watched that Affleck video and read the Dorety thing and they just made me too sad and I didnt know what to say. I didnt know that Affleck is in recovery but that makes it even sadder. Id like to think if I had endless wealth I wouldnt really have the whole 'fuck yeah its halloween, lets party!!!!' mentality. Because a rich person can always follow their muse and could just as easily be studying pottery with a world renown potter in the French Alps with a personal chef making them top shelf cuisine. It just seems so 'small' to loose ones sobriety to a drees up party. I dunno if that sounds judgemental, but i only mean to say that its extra tragic.

I've never been addicted to anything in my life, but I can imagine how hard it is to stay off it, doesn't matter if you are wealthy or not. I know some people can go from being addicted to being a moderate drinker or drug user and having it under control, but most people don't have the power to do that and then it may be even harder to never have a drink again. Hope they get their shit together before it's too late. Edited November 9, 2019 by EvanG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still feel like an adult halloween party is a sad way to go. Like at least go down while touring Tuscany or something, thats all I meant to say. But yeah, hope he stays clean and stops groping women too. I dont really know that Doherty dude. But I swear I only have ever heard about him using drugs. Hope he survives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must be a popular last name in Bremen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dang it See I figured that it was the same brewery at first, but then I noticed that one label says "Beck" and the other says "Beck's." Then I noticed the different crests/shields. Thats cool that they keep one brew on reserve for the area! That makes sense to me (cant explain why). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like their lager thats everywhere here. I see the Bremen one is a pils. Im not much of a pilsner guy usually, but when I like them I like them a lot. We have one here called Steam Whistle which is really delicious. But I imagine in the home country of Pilsner makes some great stuff! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lio Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Finally visited Kulminator in Antwerp yesterday. What a weird and unique experience. There were so many many beers I just chose a beer on tap and it turned out a great choice for me. Very yummy! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched ''Jingle All The Way'' and I took a shot of Jägermeister every time Arnie said ''get to the chopper'', needless to say I don't remember much of last night. ...either that, or I spent too much time on pornhub... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvanG Posted December 28, 2019 Share Posted December 28, 2019 (edited) On a more serious note, I did use to experience what they call ''hangover shakes'' in my hands after a night of heavy drinking. But I suppose that's quite common, hm? Edited December 28, 2019 by EvanG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
