Checked out another apartment today, since I have some doubts about the other one. The new one looks promising; now I just gotta get my application in and find out whether or not I'm enough of an upstanding consumer to get it.

Shiner Summer Stock, one of my favorite seasonal beers, is now Shiner Kölsch. The beer's the same, but the name and label have changed, much as the standard Shiner Bock label has. It's classy-looking, though I always liked the old label and name. I wonder what prompted the switch to the Teutonic nomenclature.

I hope the new Brant Bjork album arrives this weekend.
