No wonder beer is considered essential to succesful field work! btw, the link to the chili pepper article isn't work, doesn't look like the URL made it through.

Even those of us from the far north know today is a great day for Notre Dame Football. They are 3 point favorites and will begin a 4 game winning streak. Yet, you have no mention on your blob site.
