The thing about what's happening, the way the world is changing at levels that we don't even recognize, is that nobody is anywhere. Or, conversely, everybody is everywhere. Bryan sits at his computer somewhere in Malvern and pecks out a message and Dan is looking over his shoulder from a cafe in Belgium. They are in more direct contact than they would be if they lived next door to one another (then again, of course, not living next door to one another is a benefit both must appreciate).
That's amazing stuff. But the most amazing thing, today at least, is that Big Dan Bengel is 50 years old and he is in Belgium. What were the odds of either of those being a reality a decade ago?
Of course, while he is in Belgium, he seems to have lost track of his commitment to keeping visitors to this little corner of the internet informed about what's happening at Northside. For example, how many of you are aware that, a week from this very day, there is a big Patio Opening Party in bucolic Zieglerville?
Not to worry. Some thoughtful and responsible soul has posted the information here.
Friends don't let friends go to Belgium and screw up their responsibilities.
Carrying even more of the load, Uncle Jack signing off.
JUST THE FACTS
- Dan Bengel
- Hello there, maybe you found this site by luck, or maybe I told you about it. Whatever the case may be, welcome! This is not some fancy blog, with me posting on it all day, but one that has "just the facts". You know, the important things in life. The tap list, events coming up, and specials. Yeah, I'm even going to comment on some of the stuff I will be doing here. So grab a beer and relax, the show is getting ready to start.
