aggienaut | Brass Monkey

   On Friday night, while on an alcohol run at Safeway, Kristy and I ran into City Council candidate Lamar Heystek, who happens to work there. He asked me if I'd distribute voter registration packets to the apartments of my complex and I of course agreed. Everyone get yourselves registered to vote here and vote for Lamar, we urgently need a student on the city council.

   Also I introduced Kristy to the wonder that is a brass monkey (steel reserve and orange juice). She was highly skeptical about the combination until she tried it, and then declared it her new favorite drink. This is what she said about the experience:
   This weekend I discovered the beautiful drink that is the Brass Monkey. Kris had been going on about how strongsauce it was fordays, however, I was quite skeptical. Beer and orange juice? Ewww. But not just any beer, Steel Reserve, you know, the high gravity lager, it tastes different than normal beer. So I finally tried a sip of Kris' last night and HOLYGOODNESS it tastes like carbonated orange juice punch, not the least hint of alcoholee taste. Plus, steel reserve is cheap like whoa and has more alcohol in it than normal beer. Next weekend, it is going to be me and a 40 of steel reserve with orange juice in it, you dig? Kris and I were even debating if one could add vodka TO the brass monkey because there is no alcohol taste. I think an experiment will have to be done.

   Saturday our kitchen flooded. I think the filtered water exploded.
