Kyle Stillings: From Copenhagen by Bus

This weekend Kyle Stillings came all the way to Köln by bus from Copenhagen just to see us. If you're not impressed yet, you should consult a map; it's quite a voyage. And just to add insult to injury, for his return home to Seattle, dude had to spend a night in Baltimore. Matter fact, he's still en route as I type this.

Hopefully his European sojourn was worth the effort. We kept it pretty low-key here in Köln, more or less running him through our regular routines. Took him to our coffee joint, visited the Dom, patronized our Belgian grocery store, watched some TV, played a little cribbage, and marched him through more Kölsch brew houses than he'd probably ever wanted to see. However, it must be said, no meter-sausages were harmed during his stay.

Let's just hope you're not running fast and loose with the definition of "harmed" in this case.

*shudder*

Looks like similar fun was had... I hope he had his fill of Kölsch!

Since leaving I had this BRILLIANT idea that I'd brew a Kölsch-style ale for your return to the states when that happens, but then it occurred to me that you might be sick of it by the time you return...

I had a great time hanging out with both of you. Thanks for showing me around, and for being a good sport about escorting me to the train at three in the morning.

After looking at some of Kelly's work I have been inspired to dig out some of my old math books and refresh my memory

After all, without geometry, life is pointless...
