Who Here Is A Home Brewer?

A friend has a quite sumptuous growth of hops covering his back fence, and starting on the neighbor's garage roof.
His problem? He doesn't know what kind of hops they are. I guess there are different types that are used in different stages of brewing beer, or brewing different styles of beer.

Does anyone know how to tell by looking, smelling, tasting, or whatever what kind of hops he has? And how they might be useful in brewing?

Mind you, I'm only asking about this for the sole benefit of my friend. innocent
I'm in NO way thinking there might be ANYthing in this for me! scold

Any assistance will be much appreciated. drinking

Chinese Zodiac Compatibility -

Happy New Year Of The Monkey, Y'all!

What with all the blogs on the Chinese New Year, I became curious if the Chinese Zodiac could be used to predict compatibility between people.

This is CONNECTING Singles, you know. roll eyes

I figured if this could be done, the information would surely be on the 'net...
and of course it is! grin

Simply search -

Chinese Zodiac Compatibility

Enter your birthdate and that of a prospective partner.
VOILA!
You'll find out if you and your intended are...
Star-ordained...hug heart wings grin
or
Star-crossed...devil very mad blues

You are, of course, free to decide whether or not there is any validity to this.

If the Zodiac predicts wonderful things for you...
professor
Chinese are really smart people. This system has been developed and refined over millennia; it embodies the wisdom of the ages.

If the Zodiac predicts things NOT so wonderful...
mumbling
This is stupid superstitious nonsense.

Have fun and...Happy New Year Y'all!
typing......uh oh......love

WATCH: The Anti-Migrant Video Going Viral Across E

WATCH: The Anti-Migrant Video Going Viral Across Europe - Breitbart

Many points of view are expressed in the vid. I'm not endorsing any of them.
All comments are welcome.
I'd be especially interested in receiving comments from people living in Europe.
Is this an accurate depiction of events?
Is it fear-mongering?
Is it, in fact, "Going Viral Across Europe"?

IS THIS SITE REAL? DOES ANYBODY MEET SOMEBODY HERE

It is rare to go more than a couple weeks or so without someone posting a blog with that title (or something similar).

Typically, the disgruntled blogger then launches into now-familiar gripes...
devilvery mad

"No one on this site is real!" blues

"All my mail comes from scammers!" moping

"I try to mail/flower women/men with decent sounding profiles...
I'm ignored. sigh
Or blocked." crying

Am I saying those things don't happen?
of course not!

Yes, this site attracts scammers like ants to a picnic!
devil
No doubt about it. very mad

So picnics attract ants. dunno
Does that mean you quit enjoying picnics?
I think NOT! scold

Just keep the scammers in perspective.
Think of them as the ants at the CS picnic.

(Scammers & ants -
a peculiarly apt comparison...
wouldn't you agree? very mad)

Anyway...to answer the questions posed in this blog's title...
Not only yes...
HELL yes! peace

I (miclee) joined CS nearly 1 1/2 years ago.
Sent out flowers...emails.
Some ignored.
Some not interested because...
(Name your reason. Not enough room to list.)
Some started talking...moved on...

About Valentine's Day, 2014...
"Flowered" Kandy4321.
Got a response, but would ONLY communicate via CS mail.
(Scammers & all that, you know! mumbling)

After some time e-mailing...
might like to get to know her better grin

What to do?? confused

Ask for her phone number?
Hmmm...Might be thought a scammer.
& never hear from her again. blues

idea Give HER MY phone number...
"Want to call?...Like to hear from you!
Want to keep it on CS?...that's O.K. too!"

WORKED!! yay

She called!
We talked!

Went on for about a year
(with some ups grin
and downs moping )

One year "anniversary"...
Might be time to meet...
IRL.

Plans made. applause (& fell through. moping )
Finally came together. applause
Here in Florida NOW. reunion hug

She made me a "Honeydew List" for while I was here.
(Honey, do this.
Honey, do that.)
Things that might've been put off...
simply because it'd be easier to do them with a guy around...
(Strong back. flex Weak mind. roll eyes )

Worked on the gas grill...
rewarded with great food. burger

Having GREAT TIME.

Gotta go. gotta go
I got me a "Honeydew list"! grin
(Best part about being given a "Honeydew List"?
It means ya have a Honey love...
And I've been missing that for quite some time.)
daydreamsmitten

Leave y'all's comments below...

Gun Control & Syrian Refugees - European Style...

Recent News Items...
President Obama has said he wants the U.S. to take in 10,000+ Syrian refugees in 2016.
Hillary Clinton has said she supports U.S. gun control laws similar to those of Australia/Western Europe.

Gun Control & Syrian Refugees...
Soooo........Europe?.......How's that workin' out for ya?!

More News Items...
In response to the influx of Syrian refugees, Europeans are rushing to arm themselves like never before.

In Austria - where gun control laws are among the least restrictive - it is now almost impossible to buy a gun. They've been cleaned out. Quite likely, many will be re-sold in more restrictive countries - at black market prices.

European women are buying a substantial proportion of the firearms.

Some Belgians are now calling for repeal of restrictive gun laws.
