Skiing and beer and blogs

I had the distinct pleasure to go downhill skiing this weekend, one day with my family, and the other day with friends of Thomas. I have been only a handful of times over a period of probably eight years, and teaching myself to do it again on Saturday was absolutely frustrating. On Sunday, however, I felt much better about my ability. I am very sore, but I am also preparing to run a race in a couple of weeks, so I had to run today after work. I've gotten to the point, luckily, where I consider running and physical activity to be more for my mental health; I feel so accomplished once I finish with whatever physical experience I'm doing. 

Drowning the beer bottles in cleaner

This weekend we also made some progress on our beer-brewing attempt. We are essentially done with our secondary fermentation and have started preparing the bottles for the bottling process. 
I've come across another blog I like, thanks to Thomas. The writer of "Dilbert," Scott Adams, writes a pretty good blog (at least the few posts I've read have been interesting). It's called, simply, "The Scott Adams Blog," and you can find it at http://dilbert.com/blog/. Anyone out there read any good blogs?
