Climate and Weather

When I first tried beer at 11 or 12 it was Coors and I hated it. Then later, 14 or so I tried Bud, Michelob and some nasty as Colt , so again, I hated beer. A couple years later when I got my drivers license the first thing I did was go to Baja Malibu to surf (it was really effing good that day, crystal clear water, 4 to 5 feet, peaky and going OFF!). When I got out of the water I went and got tacos and beer down towards Rosario. I don't remember which beer I got (it wasn't Corona that's for sure) but I discovered there was good beer in the world . . . then I discovered Tony's Beers of the World in OB off Voltaire (long since gone, now condos there). Not only would Tony sell to me, he told me about the different beers. I became a semiliterate beer snob of sorts . . . and now the craft beers! It's amazing.

During most of the years 73-74 when I was in the Navy, I worked 6PM to Midnight shift (the AIMD shop had 4 6-hour shifts, plus rotating weekend duty days). I was living in North Park at the time, as were several of my shopmates. Many nights we would meet at a house on Meade Ave a couple of blocks from my apartment to play spades and drink beer - usually Olympia from the minimart next door. An interesting house - the upstairs bedrooms were accessible by a backside exterior stairway or via a vertical ladder inside a closet.

Remember Brew 102, the brewery located in the bend of Route 101 in downtown LA? It was the cheapest beer available in SoCal in the 70s. I was never that desperate.

Yes, yes I do. I remember finding a stash of that by our well pump house when I was mid single digits. Not sure who left it there, but we had fun throwing the cans against a rock and shooting them with a BB gun.

Summer sea ice is causing havoc for shipping in the Arctic. This is the same Arctic sea ice that climate change experts predicted would have vanished by 2013.

From the article you linked --

The once-forbidding route through the Arctic, linking the Pacific and the Atlantic oceans, has been opening up sooner and for a longer period each summer due to climate change. Sea ice that foiled famous explorers and blocked the passage to all but the hardiest ships has slowly been melting away in one of the most visible effects of man-made global warming.
