0.000 HBDThis week in Zeke - The Return!
<center></center> AND THE CROWD GOES WILD! Welcome to the smash hit, barn-burning run-away train of a blog post that is simply me looking through my photos to recall a whirlwind adventure of a life and share it with the androids from the netherworld (AKA blockchain.) <center></center> Before I start, I must preface this with the fact that I have been saluting my friend @davedickeyyall and playing GTA5 with a few friends including @parabyte (who should return to STEEM blogging.) He has a special message for you....... <center></center> <center></center> Now you know my state of mind. So it is time to strap in and catch up on 2 weeks as I return to the gripping weekly serial that is my life. <center></center> # Blue Bombing <center></center> This may seem like a normal image but it is actually photographic evidence of the continuation of an age-old, dastardly ritual. I shone a spotlight on this folklore about 7 months ago here in case you care to understand. https://steemit.com/cryptopub/@zekepickleman/zeke-s-sweet-hops-the-art-of-blue-bombing Someone other than me bombed my brother's fridge on new year's eve with the greatest of execution. The night ended like this for me https://steemit.com/dtube/@zekepickleman/p5eh1x6p but I was happy to find this picture on my phone which my intoxicated alter-ego cared to leave me. <center></center> # Continued Beerology <center>https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQbfNXWUh5KoeCREoLmRHzmQoGJmeDvsFtiWBpZVovnYQ/image.png https://steemit.com/powerhousecreatives/@zekepickleman/beerology-abe-erb-part-2</center> I spent a bit more time in the half week of not really working after new years to put a bit more work in at the next brewery I am helping to open. I would say something like "gotta earn the money to pay for Christmas" but I spent only cash on a limited budget and did just fine without having to saddle my lifestyle with unnecessary Christmas consumerism debt. I highly recommend that as a good new year's resolution you start following in early December. <center></center> # Pizza Time! <center></center> It occurred to me through deep meditation that some folks might never take the time to make their own pizza at home. So I set out to use the blockchain to remedy that situation https://steemit.com/food/@zekepickleman/home-made-pizza! <center></center> # Swamp of Clothes <center></center> This is an obscure one but I had to share as I am finding myself increasingly amused at the observations of my kids as they grow up. This is a cesspool known as The Gap which is an outlet that makes it's business on the backs of young Indonesian children making $.08 a day.....or so the story goes. It is also a place that makes preteen girls happy while enabling the parents to afford the latest fashions. I took this shot because my oldest remarked that this place is like a "swamp of clothes" which I found profoundly appropriate. <center></center> # Great Beer! <center></center> A Week in Zeke would not be complete without a little beer spotlight. I have had this before on a previous run from Great Lakes Brewery http://www.greatlakesbeer.com/ and figured it would be the last. Then, I arrive in the big city and find that not only have they done another run, it is cloudier and tastier than I remember! Hoppy as hell and less filtered than I remember which makes it a real chewy mouthful of awesomeness. I have a few more new ones to review but that can wait til later on in the week. <center></center> # 5-mic Studio Karaoke <center></center> On the weekend, I got the call to arms to join the guys in the big city to celebrate a barfday and sing some songs. My better half would probably advise that I spend too much time acting like a juvenile rock star and she would probably be right. Having a fully decked out music studio in the big city and a brother working at a craft brewery generally leads to too many beers and laughs, epic 5 part harmonies in songs that generally don't have them, and half blown out vocal chords the next hungover day. This is the only snap I manged to make though there is a video I shot entering the party I may share if anyone wants a laugh at my adolescence. <center></center> # Gathering with Friends <center>(https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWLrC3neBNjUzUWw9AEFnqto6q6pXimctqksdfEoY4K51/IMG_5256.jpg) </center> After a really long and awesome weekend, I was able to cap it off with a great night with the awesome people who train at https://www.stratfordbjj.com to celebrate 5 years since the club opened. IT is such a fantastic community tied to a cool pastime that really promotes a healthy lifestyle. The first added bonus is that the head instructor Ryan has managed to create a successful business and start a family in our small town. The second bonus is the party was held at Jobsite Brewery who are clients and friends of mine. I documented the grand opening a few months ago here https://steemit.com/beersaturday/@zekepickleman/jobsite-brewing-grand-opening <center></center> <center></center> # What's the best thing that happened to you so far in 2019? <center></center>
