Beth and I are hosting Willie McManus for a House Concert this Saturday, Feb 2 at 8pm at our home in St. Louis Park. We still have some seats left if anyone is interested! An American Brown Ale will be on tap ("Heckuva Job Brownie"), and there's lots of homebrewers who come, so usually it's a sample fest.

Drop me a private email if you're interested, and I'll send along the details.

Dearest One,
Based on your profile, the trust and God's divine guidance that I have this great oppoutunity linking up to you, though we have not meet before but I believe that one have to risk in confiding his secret to succeed sometimes in life.
My name is Miss Mary Clement, a 22 years old undergraduate.I am only daughter of chief/Mrs Johnson Clement a major cocoa exporter cum politician.I am native of Lorma in western part of liberia,Africa.
I was born out of tragic fate.my mother died from cancer when I was only 4 years old,my father nurtured me with great care and love before he met his own untimely death on the way coming back from business trip from overseas,on his arrival to the airport his driver went to drove him back home
on the way they have a fatal car accident which killied his driver at spot while my father spent 3 painful days at hospital before dying. my uncle seized all my father's companies and properties because of our traditionl believe that i'm a woman. I was left with nothing and dropped out of school
because of finacial difficulties and my uncle's wicked attitude.
My father told me a deep secret on his sick bed which I want to share with you in a full confidentiality.He deposited a huge sum of $7 million Dollers ($7,OOO,OOO USD)in one of reputable private security company in Ivory Coast because of polictical instability in our country Liberia without the
knowledge of my uncle.presently I'm in ivory coast since the civil war broke out in liberia as a refugee in one of missionary home while my uncle flew to the london with his children.although I have contacted the security company they comfirmed the logdement.
Dearest all I want you to do for me is to step forward as my foreign partner to the security company so that the money will be retrieve,I have all the neccesary information to back you up.i will sincerely give you 10% out of the money,5% for any expenses incurred during the transaction and the
rest will be used for any investement preferred by you in your country.
I am pleading to you with the name of Almighty God to help me out of this problem.coincidentally Ivory coast is now having it's own political unrest too,
I am kindly waiting for your soonest response.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU.
All my love,
Miss Mary Clement.

Anyone interested in participating in the Brew Ha Ha in Duluth on Feb
8th and 9th? I would like to split cost of a rental car, gas and a
hotel room. The plan would be to leave on Friday afternoon, judge
Friday and Saturday, attend the awards banquet then head back to the
cities. If there are 3 or 4 of us it would be even cheaper.
I judged there last year and had a great time, those Duluth folks treat
you well!
Contact me off-list if you are interested.
