Ya the keyboard is toast too. Laptop boots fine. Just can't type anything. Will check what they want for a new keyboard. Too much and I'm going USB till I find one on eBay.

"good beers" and "magic hat" do not go in the same sentence in my opinion, unless you're saying "Man I wish I had some good beers, instead of this girly magic hat stuff."

I never pegged you for the fruity type of guy Kuro.... actually maybe I did .

Well Sam Adams seasonal sucks, too much trouble to find Chimay and Circus Boy is actually pretty good. I don't drink bud / Coors / Miller.

Besides I was home. Out, 3 Philosophers and Golden Monkey. Dogfish Head or black and tans if they don't have those

here is a idea for u kuro... since ur keyboard doesnt work... remove all the buttuons as well as the little rubber tabs under them... then get a thing sheet of aluminum and cut it to fill where the old keys went... then purchase one of these

and you either glue it on top of the aluminum or cut the aluminum so it fits inside nicely, or just do whatever... and wala

I actually like the Sam Summer Ale in moderation. Chimay is great - I love belgium style ales, alagash triple is my favorite.

Never had 3 Philosophers - get your hands on some Fat Tire if they have it out your way, its a micro brew from colorado my old college roommate got me hooked on.
