December 25, 2001
- Merry Christmas to those that celebrate. Also, Happy Belated Hannukah (Chanuka?) and Happy Belated Kwanza if you celebrate those holidays. And if by my ignorance I missed you, Happy whatever-it-is-that-you-do-celebrate. Please be happy and healthy, and be kind to your fellow human beings. Life is short on this planet, so let's try to help each other out whenever possible. Finally, I know this is a beer review site, and we want you to expand your beer-horizons, but please please PLEASE don't drink and drive. Even if it means you have to put off trying that new beer for another time. I could say it's because we need the hits and I want you to come back here to visit, but honestly, I really do care about all of you, and want you to get home safely.
- I've got some new reviews coming up this week. Stay tuned...

December 20, 2001
- Made a few color changes to show what section you are in. For example, if you are staring at a red navigation bar, you're in the beer review section. If you see green, it's humor. If it's blue, you're in backwash. So stop bitching about the rants.
December 16, 2001

- Sorry about the delay in updating, but I've been learning active server pages, and re-designing the site to use a database instead of static html. You probably won't notice a difference, but it will make the admin of the site much easier. More to come soon.
- Also, we'd like to welcome our new host, WebServePro. I had to leave Webcom because they didn't have support for .asp pages, and webserve was cheaper. Due to this, the TOBP Newsletter has been put on hold, until I can figure out how to do it again.
