It's a Start

Thursday update: we've been sorting out assorted technical difficulties for other folks all morning, and we expect Thursday's set to be either greatly delayed (as in sometime this afternoon) or washed out completely.

While you fulminate over today's disruption, take a breath and make plans to take in tonight's (Thursday) Great Pumpkin Ale bash at Rustico Ballston and Saturday's Novemberfest Virginia beer extravaganza at Rustico Alexandria from noon to 5:00 pm.
