I spent hours looking, to no avail. Then I went to Ohio to visit my grandparents. They had nothing but four-leaf clovers in their back yard. I don't think you'll ever find a four-leaf in a three-leaf patch, but what do I know. I've wondered if that lady tortured me intentionally, or if she didn't think I'd take her up on it. When my dad was ready to start his career, he was offered a job in Bakersfield or Dublin, Ireland. He chose Bakersfield.Mister Earlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18405041951237611622noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4926759868384604174.post-47237877532171482522010-03-17T05:21:51.231-07:002010-03-17T05:21:51.231-07:00I can't believe he found it and his timing was...I can't believe he found it and his timing was perfect.

Stout, while incredibly dark and roasty, is in fact one of the many styles of ale.<br /><br />But you are right, darker beers do pack more of an antioxidant punch.ben widemanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10010635436712076159noreply@blogger.com
