If there were a way to rank states by the percentage of the female population that dress up in a patriotic cowgirl get up on Independence Day, we would win in a landslide. Even Texas would be like "dayam."
That sounds like and invite to host us on the Fourth, if I've ever heard one.

We had a flight of what appeared to be F-5s circle our area yesterday evening four times.  I didn't know we had F-5s still flying, I had a pretty decent look at them.

I was musing about ATC down at ATL figuring out how to play this.  We don't see much commercial traffic here, but I have arrived several times north of the airport and then swung around to land to the west.

My wife made crepes for dinner, which was a bit odd, but worked for me.  I watched the Braves game, I don't rate them as much better than average this year.

Whoever cooks here gets to choose what we eat.  We had the sausage things for lunch.  They were just OK.  The skin was tough.

Oh, and I LIKE thin pancakes.

Speaking of beer - what's your go to beer? I buy Brewdog's Elvis Juice more than anything else. I prefer IPA's, but I don't love the super boozy ones or the ones that are more bitter than anything. It' called a grapefruit IPA, not sure it tastes much of grapefruit but it is pretty floral and fruity without being sweet. Plus they sell it everywhere.
While some hops can give a taste of grapefruit, I do find that when it's labeled a "grapefruit IPA" there's some grapefruit juice in the recipe. 

Honestly my go to is just good ol' Stone IPA. One of the original West Coast IPAs, it's not hazy, or fruity. It's clean and bitter, exactly what I'm looking for. 

For non-hoppy / slightly lighter beer, you can't go wrong with a Firestone Walker 805. It's a blonde ale. Or if you want hoppy but lighter, Founders All Day IPA is nice.

My wife prefers lighter beers, she likes 420, and I do as well, it has made Sweetwater brewery one of the larger "craft" outfits out there.  Nearly all their profit comes from it.  It's a good business model, have one type that sells because it's pretty light but also has taste, and then have money to brew whatever you want not caring if it makes money.  My go to in summer probably is more like a 420.  My go to in winter would vary, I like different tastes at different times.  

My ex father in law had cases of PBR stacked up in his basement.  He'd sit there and pound PBRs all night, drinking a 2-4 usually.  They would often go to this bar in Raliegh that had pretty solid pizza and he'd do a shooter or three of tequila and then pound beers.  I never tried to keep up.  Then he'd drive home, somehow.  He passed away at about 55, after we were divorced.  

I don't usually want the same beer night after night, if I drink beer at all.  I'm sure there are beer rankings out there, and they probably differ quite a lot, like wine "points" etc.

My favorite beers are ales and lagers.  Dark and light.  Minimally filtered and clear.

If I had to name a go-to it would be Live Oak Pilz.  It's hot in Austin and the clean flavor of a great pilsner hits the spot 77.3% of the time.
