A Pint of Smithwick's

Smithwick's is now on tap at Doyle's in JP!

A nice Irish Ale from the maker's of Guinness.

The tent card on the table said I could be one of the first to try it. So I ordered it and the waiteress said, "Oh, I didn't even know we had that."

So I was the first!

It went down smoothly after ice skating at Larz Anderson rink.

It was my first time skating in a lot of years. One time around the rink and my feet killed! After a while I did get my skating legs back and skated around the rink pretty well.

My finger is now feeling better after the Chinese torture I experienced this morning, by getting a splinter under my fingernail, while trying to get the ice skates out of the basement.

Ouuuuuuuuch!

I was sure that I was fgoing to have to make a trip to the emergency room.

The only way to get the splinter out was to cut under the fingernail and get the splinter out with a needle.

Yikes.

Beer is a nice cure to help in the healing process.
