Last Monday I picked up my new car, 2005 Ford Focus. Seems everyday I drive it I find something new about it. I didn't know where the trunk release was until 4 days later. For a 4-banger, its got some get-up-and-go to it.

This past weekend, I went down to my mom's. My brother was down too, so mom made us put the lights on the roof. Now while I like visiting my mom, I get bored easily. I thought a friend didn't have to work, I was wrong. So I got hold of a friend in Madison. I met him and his wife at The Malt House. This place boasts over 170 beers, a superb whiskey list, and its where Union solders had their last beer before heading south to fight in the civil war. If you go there to drink Bud, your in the wrong place. You can hold conversations with others and hear them, which is a plus for me. If I live in Mad-town, its where I'd drink.
