What do beer and coffee have to do with each other? Well besides both being categorized as beverages and at times bookending my day, they have come together in a couple of different fun stories for today’s show. They will also show up in a slate of new reviews coming.
But today’s show is much more than coffee beer, we also run through facebook URLs, Microsoft news and GPS blunders. As well as a ton of great odd and yet still geeky stories.We also give a rundown of the DTV transition and some local issues, and the sad state of news media surrounding the change.
Also since you can’t have a show called Beer and Coffee without giving a shout-out to Matthew Ebel, who has an album of the same name We’ll feature a podsafe music track at the end of the show. Its been a while since I had music in the show.
Enjoy the show and Stay Caffeinated!

So now you can stop wishing for a meteor to strike in your backyard. Some of us might think of you as superman but apparently that’s as far as it will ever go!
Yes, your favorite holiday, even more favorite than Christmas, was Flag Day. You’ve just always loved flags. Guess it was early Boy Scout influence from your Dad and you’ve always been different.
Loved the story about the DTV transition. Loved the song at the end!
Thanks for the birthday wishes.
