Jesse -

Indeed. I followed the rule, but to no avail. I think it's beer ingredients that are to blame more than the actual alcohol content. Ah well. If you're older and are clergy, this isn't the biggest loss. And I'm rapidly becoming a fan of 7 and 7s anyway.

I was thinking about doing the ancestry.com thing last year but if memory serves I balked at the price...I'm too big a fan of free. Sounds like perhaps it's worth it, though. Let us know if you find anyone famous/notorious in your lineage!

Do you think its the gluten in the beer? Of it a gut ache as well or just a headache?


Ancestry was $30 for a month of world records. We're going to do what we can this month and maybe next.

Searching my past spit up some surnames I hadn't heard before. I'll put them up here maybe some of us are related!!!

I've always wanted to do this after we found a geneology book from my dad's side. I haven't seen the book in quite some time but the book had Ulysses S. Grant in it has a relative. There was also somebody that is an ancestor of mine who's name I've read in history books during the Revolution War as well, but I can't remember his name. I don't think he was a huge player in the war, but he did one thing that is remembered

I'm also related to president grant, maybe we're related zach lol

I am glad I pick my battles when it comes to Ethier cards:

2009 Topps Heritage Clubhouse Collection Autograph Jersey Andre Ethier 25 | eBay

2009 Topps Heritage Past and Present Dual Autograph Andre Ethier Irv Noren 25 | eBay

Watched but didn't go after either Ethier. LOL

My German ancestors lived in Northern Germany (Prussia) near the North Sea. Perhaps that's why I'm so addicted/enticed by the ocean/coast.


An ancestor in Germany has traced the Juilfs name back to 1645!

Does that bat have a "ping" sound?

I think the neck of the bat is a bit short.

Excellent addition George.

Waiting for an insurance agent to return my call for a quote on my Jeep. Otherwise debating on going out to the ice shack.

Wait a second! There's a chance that when you're not on here that you're NOT in the ice shack?
