pretzel party is coming…..

The infamous Pretzel Party is at Dan and Betsy's this coming Saturday. Last years was great and this will be even more fun. Read more to see the invitation in German and English.
Mischung zusammen

Reichliche Mengen Freunde…

Alberne Quantitäten Bier…

Nahe Berge des Mehls…

Ein Spiel der Vorhölle…

Und 2 Eßlöffel Lauge…

Und gesetzt ihnen allen in einen kleinen Raum und in eine Erschütterung zum zu erhalten

Oktoberfest!

warum yesh, es dieses mal des Jahres wieder ist.

Und dieses we're auf dem FÜNFTEN JAHRBUCH betrachtend! Sie am wahrscheinlichsten kennen bereits das vollständige Programm. Aber für die ganze Sie Brezel-Beteiligtes Virgins™ heraus dort oder für die deren schwache Gedächtnisse zum alten Alter gehören, here's das schtick:

Stellen Sie oben bei 616 Pauline Blvd (don't wird durch die Tatsache verwirrt, daß es wirklich nicht eine Prachtstraße ist), herum 8pm am Samstag Oktober 9. dar. Jedoch darstellend herauf isn't durchaus genug, da dieses ein volles Teilnahmebeteiligtes ist, das Sie holen müssen, sechs-verpacken Sie von etwas Bier you've hatte nie vor (Busch Lite et al. zählt nicht, ob you've es vorher oder nicht hatte).

Sobald Sie in you'll bald erhalten, seien zu den Arbeit Rollenbrezeln, hundert meeelin Brezeln, die besten verfluchten Brezeln gesetzt Sie, die you've überhaupt hatte! Verbessern Sie als, gehend zum Mooooooon!

we'll liefern den Senf.

Bis dann,
Dan u. Wetten

Ps, wenn Sie Sie kennen, kann oder kann nicht bitte kommen schießen uns eine E-mail, also können wir einen rauhen Zählimpuls auf, wieviel zu bilden Teig erhalten.

“If Leben gibt Ihnen Zitronen, warum man nicht die geräucherten Lachse vorbereitet, die auf klaren Käse-Biskuiten mit der Schnittlauch-und Zitrone-Creme gedient werden, gefolgt von Coconut und von der Zitrone Risotto mit Pilz Duxelles und Spinat mit einer Seite des gegrillten Spargels mit Zitrone-Butter und des Endes mit Zitrone-Pudding-Auflauf mit Champagne Sabayon? Mindestens that's, was sie auf Eisen Chef.” taten; — R.M. Weiner

Or if you prefer english…

mix together

Copious amounts of friends…

Ludicrous quantities of beer…

Near mountains of flour…

A game of Limbo…

And 2 Tablespoons of lye…

And put them all into a small space and shake to get

Oktoberfest!

why yesh, it is that time of year again.

And considering that we're on the FIFTH ANNUAL! You most likely already know the whole routine. But for all of you Pretzel Party Virgins™ out there, or for those whose feeble memories are going with old age, here's the schtick:

Show up at 616 Pauline Blvd (don't be confused by the fact that it actually is not a Boulevard) around 8pm on Saturday October 9th. However, showing up isn't quite enough since this is a full participation party- you have to bring a six-pack of some beer you've never had before (Busch Lite et al does not count whether you've had it before or not).

Once you get in you'll soon be put to work rolling pretzels, a hundred meeelin pretzels, the best damn pretzels you've ever had! Better than going to the Mooooooon!

we'll provide the mustard.

See you then,
Dan & Bets

PS If you know you can or cannot come please shoot us an e-mail so we can get a rough count on how much dough to make.
PPS For all of you too far away to come we just wanted to let you know that we're thinking about you.

Random Link

So today I added a random link to my page. Its in the “navigation” section on my main page. It will take you to a random site that I think is cool. There is a list of about 50 or so links that it chooses from. Have fun.

Studpid directory access

So I am having some LDAP authentication issues at work. Most people can login, but there are a couple (myself included) that cannot login to the macs. Works fine on the PC's and my.emich, but not through LDAP. Aric, Scott, and I are all stumped….stupid computers.

more canoes

Talking with a Swift dealer in Grand Rapids about a Kipawa. I almost bought a Bell Northwind this past weekend cause I thought it was a Northstar. Stupid North names confusing me.

Also my Yakima rack came today. Need to get Q3 clips for it. It came with Q18's. Anybody need a set of Q18's? They are for a '92-'95 BMW 3 series sedan.

found a canoe

So I found a used Kipawa on the MEC gearswap. I got pictures of it here. I love the color, but Swift does not make that color, at least anymore. So I wonder if its faded. Let me know what you think. Retail on it is almost $2000CDN and he is asking $900CDN(~$700USD).
