As I talked about in a previous post, Sierra Nevada Brewing Company, could be the coolest brewery ever, and after an exchange with people in their administrative offices, they sent us a package of swag.
I arrived home this afternoon to find this on my front porch...

First, I want to point out that I don’t think that I should have to write this. Apparently I do though, as too many times recently have these rules been broken resulting in an uncomfortable experience for me. So without further ado, allow me to present The Men’s Bathroom Guide.
I’d like to point out that these are not suggestions, rather, rules to be followed by all men. All men. Always. Seriously.
(For the record, I am not claiming to pioneer these thoughts. I’m just reiterating things that every man should already know as unspoken rules. Clearly some men don’t know these rules or need a refresher. Enjoy.)

Ever since I moved into my house, my back yard has had problems draining. Every time it rains, puddles form in the low point, and don't go away for about a week. I'd finally had enough and decided to put a drainage system back there.
It turned out to be a bit more work than expected.

And, here I thought that I would be the last to write a blog. I'm not really known for being punctual with things like this (see my bio, ghost-written by Brendan).
This is the second time I'm writing this because I didn't know that this would time out. Blech. Anyway, here's my first blog.

After the Muskoxen held Quest for the Best 1: Muskoxtoberfest in Spring: Feats of Beer '09, the Brew-tastic Challenge, we decided to contact the top three breweries and let them know how they had done in our little contest.
Without thinking much about it, I put together a standard email congratulating the winners on Thursday, April 16, and let them know that they were free to use the appropriate badge on their website to show the world that they are very highly regarded by the Muskoxen. We didn't figure much would come of it.
Being the largest and most widely-known brewer of the winners (second place), and not to mention that Sierra Nevada is pretty much the brewery that put micro-brewing on the map, we didn't expect too much from them. To our surprise, however, within a few hours I got an email back from quality control thanking us for the kind words, telling me that they enjoyed our video, and that they had forwarded my email to the CEO and brewmaster. We thought that was the end of it.

The Muskoxen have decided to blog. Yes folks, get ready for an utter free-for-all of Muskoxen goodness from here on out.
At first, we're planning on writing about all sorts of topics, and not being bound by any central theme. At some point we may try to focus the blog in a certain direction, but we want to see where the free-for-all format will take us.
We're going to try to have each Muskoxen post at least once a week. This may or may not happen, and I'm sure some Muskoxen may post more often than others. And that's ok.
