• @jlivingood I absolutely would test IPv6. I’ve been using it 4 years via a tunnel at home and natively at work. It needs to be everywhere in reply to jlivingood #
• @jlivingoodand re: IPv6, I could name 10 other highly technical ppl throughout the US that would actually use it and give *useful* feedback. #
• Taxes are boring. #
• @Jokerjitsu I think you can get that in Indiana too….that pesky midwest region. in reply to Jokerjitsu #
• @jlivingood I’m ready. I’m tired of tunneling v6 to get to work stuff. I sent you mail re: v6 transit via comcast site as well. in reply to jlivingood #

• My switcheasy capsule rebel iPhone case has pretty much fallen apart after almost 2 years of use. I’ll be sans case from now on I guess. #
• Ive had a case on an iPhone so long I forgot how thin and elegant they really are. I may leave this iPhone “naked” and hope I don’t break it #
• @ancker010 so far I’m one day safe. I had my original iPhone naked forever and it was fine. We’ll see. in reply to ancker010 #

I’ve been making mead as long as I’ve been making beer, and frankly, mead is much easier. I’m not a big wine drinker or really even a fan of wine, but mead is so easy to make and it turns out well with minimal work so I make it a few times a year. Here is a quick and dirty howto on making simple, traditional mead that I threw together a few nights ago:

Mead is a good choice for those wanting to start with zymology, as it takes few ingredients and can be done on a budget. Mead is simple. Many folks, like in brewing, have a lot to say about checking this and that, boiling the must, etc.
I choose to go very basic, start with a base mead and then add fruit later.
If you’re interested in making mead and want some quick mead recipes or just general information, check out gotmead.com, they have links and a wealth of information on the subject.
