    Yeah like the old saying

    One scotch is all right. Two are too many, and three are not enough.

    Nope, you have not drank a fine Amber Ale until you try one of these.

    I like, and greatly miss, "Old Peculiar", a dark English ale that used to be served up at the Halfway House Saloon in Monterey, Califoria. Never seen it anywhere else, and I have callused elbows to prove it. The Halfway House Saloon closed in 1981 after over a hundred years in operation. John Steinbeck & Doc Ricketts used to hang out there. I played in a band there for about 10 years. Old Peculiar is one of the great ales in the world in MHO.
    Oh, I was wondering if the welds on my compensating sprocket are supposed to be there. Whoever welded the cover pieces together did a bad job. the welds are not evenly spaced and I think this will cause more vibration and cause the whole assembly to be out of balance. I want to grind the welds off and separate the two pieces. Is that a good idea? Should I even bother?

    Ales are weak azz beers, nothing but a colored light American water beer LOL

    Now if ye wanta great glass of Draught Beer, from a company that started making
    it in 1725, and I'll tell ye boys nobody knows more about drinking beer, fighting and
    having fun then the Irish, well then it's Guinness Draught Beer

    Guinness also has a Stout that will allow you to work ya way up to real mans beer the Draught LOL

    Actually its one of the few beers I can drink from time to time due to gout, those pansy Bud and Miller beers just kick my toes into severe pain... Guinness doesnt.

    And let me tell ya there's nothing finer than having a nice buxom lass serve you a properly poured Guinness Draught from the mothers teet's in Dublin.....

    Notice the difference, Ale, Draught in a Glass,
