Beer Me

This evening we joined fellow liberal beer lovers for Tampa's August edition of Drinking Liberally. We gathered 'round a couple of outdoor tables at New World Brewery
and enjoyed some good beer, great company, and engaging conversation.  Plenty of the
discussion, of course, focused on the devastation in Louisiana,
Mississippi, and Alabama from Hurricane Katrina's passing. Liberals
care, and liberals act. We talked about the need for everyone to dig
deep and send money to aid organizations. Cash is what's needed most
right now, and you can donate online to the Red Cross. With the inevitable mounting medical needs, it's also a huge help if folks can donate blood -- you can also find a location to donate blood by calling 1-800-GIVELIFE (1-800-448-3543).

On a much lighter note, the picture above (click on the thumbnail image
to see the larger pic) is of the license plate of a vehicle that was in
front of me on the way home from work this evening. Knowing that I'd be
joining some folks for a pint later, this seemed like a very
appropriate sight.

It was great to see you and Shirley again. Hope you'll be able to make this a regular event on your calendar.

Hi Joe, I just sent you a link regarding a new banner campaign for those of us who didn't vote for Bush. I explain the details there and hope you will explain it on to your readers here. Meanwhile, I've made my link here point to the information page otherwise for those who are curious in passing. Thanks, and keep on blogging! I'm enjoying it. ;)
