I am in Austin now at the old farm, the weather channel says it is like 107.

It is cooler in Houston.

Pass me a cold Shiner.

1. OKAY! Trivia time. Shiner Bock foams at high altitude. You get a free one!!!

I used to fly in and out of DFW a lot and I'd always get a Shiner Bock on the flight because I knew it would foam over. They'd give me a second for free but I drank both because the foaming didn't change anything. At the time, you were only allowed two. I'd order a second which would ALSO foam over and get another free one. So I got four for the price of two. It didn't change the beverage, but it DID change the price!

2. I didn't know that.

Shiner is the best.

Everyone should visit Shiner, Tx., yes.

3. It's actually good from a can (unlike most beers), but you can scam the airline with that trick.

4. One brewery....

no public library. But then if you have a brewery in town, do you really need a library?

Edited to add, we are having a bit of rain here and it has cooled down. Of course it is as steamy as Snookie's crotch but what the hey, we're use to that this time of year. It keeps the pesky tourists and weather weenies away.

5. I used to go the brewery with my grandfather once a month.

He bought his bottles of beer fresh.

He liked his two bottles everyday, lived to 95.

Never sick, something in the beer.

6. I am hiding in the stone house until later.

The walls are thick and keep the house cool.

Nice to have some rain.
