  1. Rustic homebrewing. twitter.com/Alworth/status…
  2. @jeffersondsmith Impressive, Mr. Smith!--the O has called it and you're headed to the break round.
  3. I'm surprisingly excited to hear the results. Reardon! Mayor and Fritz/Nolan are fascinating.
  4. Budget cut suggestion. Spend 2x the amount of the US's biggest rival on defense. Savings in year one: $450 billion. Ta da!
  5. It's been 11 yrs since a 15 beat a 2. Twice today!! Here's the scene from Spirit of 77 in PDX. (Elysian Dragonstooth) twitter.com/Alworth/status…
  6. Sen. Wyden's healthcare plan now used by Romney in attacks against Obama: mobile.washingtonpost.com/rss.jsp?rssid=… #UnintendedConsequences
  7. 82% in in OH, but Cuyahoga still at 41%. Not many Santorum counties left to count--looks like Mitt will squeak it out.
  8. Suddenly this whole Mormon-from-MA-who-passed-universal-healthcare thing is looking problematic in the South.
  9. Stats (2): 93% of the economic gains since the recovery began have gone to the 1%. (Shocker!) elsa.berkeley.edu/~saez/saez-USt…
  10. Stats (1): 72% of Limbaugh's audience is male. (Shocker!) tnr.com/blog/the-study…
  11. Tonight's #Oscars--a cut above in terms of gracious speeches. After a year in which the movies were a cut below.
  12. I think the likelihood of a candidate Romney has slid to 65-35--shocking given the near 100% he appeared to have in Jan talkingpointsmemo.com/archives/2012/…
  13. Since Truman, Carter & Obama are the most cons & lib Dem prezes. Bet you jumped to the wrong conclusion. krugman.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/02/05/oba…
  14. Remember when Santorum was going to be the nominee?
  15. My [clever?] attempt to use a beer blog to talk SOPA and politics: beervana.blogspot.com/2012/01/why-wi…
  16. Incidentally, the search that clued me into #Wikipedia 's blackout? Salma Hayek. I was watching old 30 Rocks on Netflix.
  17. OK, I just encountered the Wikipedia blackout. What's it been--2 hrs? Anyway, @blumenauermedia @RonWyden @senjeffmerkley Do the right thing.
  18. Conservative Andrew Sullivan has a great piece on Obama in the current Newsweek: thedailybeast.com/newsweek/2012/…
  19. Whoops, that last tweet was meant to go out on the @Beervana feed. This was for @Alworth: idealab.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/12/congre…
  20. Readers have definitely spoken: they like Logsdon's Seizon Bretta for the Satori Award. I just picked up a bottle--time to try it once more.
