The Pub / Re: Pint Glass Pricing Poll
« on: January 17, 2013, 05:13:57 PM »
I voted $8 and I'd probably, and have, paid more.  I've got several tulip 5oz taster glasses from several local breweries and they usually run $2.50 - $3, so I have no problem paying $8+ for 20oz glasses, especially if it came filled w/ beer as Mort suggested!

For me, at the time I was living in Atlanta and it was Sweetwater 420 and each winter I would come out to Colorado to ski and Fat Tire kind of re-enforced my thirst to get away from the Budweiser.

Legen.....wait for it.....DARY!  I was confident and had originally predicted Bama 24 -17, but after watching Ole Miss just destroy Pitt (Pitt missed FG in OT against ND and Bama boot stomped Ole Siss) in their bowl game, I changed my prediction to 34 - 10. 

Bama has 9 seniors and is one of the youngest teams in the nation.  We'll lose a few Jrs to the NFL, but we currently have what many feel is another #1 recruiting class coming in.

Shouldn't be the router since I am surfing now on my iPad on the same router. That said, I have restarted the router several times today.

That doesn't matter.  I think the first thing you should do is shut down both your router and PC and wait a few minutes.  Then reboot the router, a minute later the PC.  That will force a resync.  A cheap and easy test before you do anything radical.

Just rebooting the router will force the resync.  Even if you restart your computer, it will still use the same saved network settings, which may be corrupted.  Every time I get a call to troubleshoot wireless connections, most of them are solved by deleting your saved wireless network connections and reconnecting to the network just as if it were your first time connecting to the network.  Beyond that, if your other wireless devices are working fine w/ the router, then you start looking closer at the troubled computer.  Then again, routers are so cheap, getting a new one to test out is not much trouble.  If the new router doesn't work, you can always return it.

Major, try this to reset your home wireless connection on your laptop:

1. Click on the wireless icon in your system tray next to your time.  This will bring up all your wireless signals available to you and show you your home network.

2.  Right click on your home network and select properties

3.  In the network properties window that pops up, select the "Security" tab

4.  Change Security Type to "No Authentication (Open)"

5.  Change Encryption Type to "None" and hit OK

This will basically change and erase the saved network info for your home network on your laptop.

Now go back down to your system tray, click on your wireless icon, select your home network and click connect.  It will connect to your network (you may have to enter your wireless password) and will refresh you home wireless network settings on your laptop.

Good Luck.

Hey Tom,  log into your router and check your wireless settings.  Some routers have the ability to list multiple SSIDs and if you used the automatic setup, sometimes the router will go ahead and name/list multiple SSIDs for your wireless network.  Do you have other wireless devices and if so does multiple SSIDs for your network show up?

Have you tried to connect to different WiFi than your one at home?

You may also try deleting your saved Wifi info for your network and reconnecting.  Sometimes your saved network info can get corrupted, causing connection failures.  You can do this by:

Start button/ Control Panel/ Network and Internet/ Network and Sharing Center
On the left, click "Manage Wireless Networks"
Right click your home network and select "Remove Network"
Then try to reconnect to your wirless network and re-enter your password.

Also, if you can plug your laptop into your router via the LAN connection and get internet connection, I could remotely connect to your system if you like and troubleshoot your system for you.

Commercial Beer Reviews / Re: Ten Fidy!

I actually like Great Divide's Yeti Imperial Stout a little better.  I live closer to GD than I do OB, so I visit GD more than I do OB.  It's fun to sample all the different versions GD does with Yeti such as chocolate oak aged, espresso oak aged, whiskey barrel oak aged, regular oak aged, and their Belgian Style Yeti.  Have had all of these at their tasting room and they all very very good.  Most of these, if not all, are bottled and sold around the Denver area, not sure how far their distribution goes.

Very good beer and as far as I know it's the only RIS style beer in a can.  Was at OB in July and they broke out the whiskey barrel aged Ten Fidy for us to try and it was great.
