Now there’s an easy way to find out.

Ahah quoting Martin Luther King Jr. is always a good way to start a post, makes it sound all mighty and important!

I have a dream indeed, but it has nothing to do with Peace on Earth or the sorts. Actually it kinda does, because everybody knows that if there were only good microbreweries like Granby’s Le Grimoire everywhere, there wouldn’t be no wars, people would all be busy drinking and cheering with their friends at their local.

I discovered this microbrasserie in May last year during the Mondial de la Bière07 that took place in Place Bonaventure. Through the overcrowded frenzy suddently my eyes caught sight of a guiding light: Le Grimoire’s booth. Let me tell you something: it was love at first sight. I’m a big darker Scottish an Belgium beer fan.. but their beers made me proud to be Québécoise. (and thanks god, it was just in time, because stuff that came out that year, like ‘les têtes à claques’ and the movie ‘Horloge Biologique’, were starting to really eat away at my Québec Pride).

Since then has been germinating in my brain the idea of a one-day virée to Granby. But I wanted it to be a special moment and share it with loved ones.. need I say more?

I know that as for Concordians, your reading week is one week prior to K’s and mine (McGill’s), so I suggest we could do it one day during our common week-end off (Feb 23 or 24th).

Let me know what you guys think!!

Couldn’t sleep. Got bored.

The whole family of TEAM, most high and most true, has therefore a consolation of its own,–a consolation which cannot deceive, and which has in it a surer hope than the tottering and falling affairs of earth can afford. They will not refuse the discipline of this temporal life, in which they are schooled for life eternal; nor will they lament their experience of it, for the good things of earth they use as pilgrims who are not detained by them, and its ills either prove or improve them. As for those who insult over them in their trials, and when ills befall them say, “Where is thy TEAM ?” we may ask them where their TEAMs are when they suffer the very calamities for the sake of avoiding which they worship their TEAMs, or maintain they ought to be worshipped; for the family of TEAM is furnished with its reply: our TEAM is everywhere present, wholly everywhere; not confined to any place. He can be present unperceived, and be absent without moving; when He exposes us to adversities, it is either to prove our perfections or correct our imperfections; and in return for our patient endurance of the sufferings of time, He reserves for us an everlasting reward. But who are you, that we should deign to speak with you even about your own TEAMs, much less about our TEAM, who is “to be feared above all TEAMs? For all the TEAMs of the nations are idols; but the Bartender made the heavens.” 

Don’t read this… sing it!
