Good news Guys!

[TallGrass]

I have a good friend that's done a lot of TV & movie production. I just got off the phone with him & we're going to start doing a TV show. A few of us are going to travel the country visiting local breweries & discussing & trying their beers. We're going to start shooting this summer. He actually has an 'in' with the Travel channel, so hopefully we can pitch it to them.

No but his brother caught a 768 pound catfish using dental floss, a paper clip and cheese balls. He is going to patent the technique. It is pending and I am real.
