Okay, this question is mainly for the many members of FNBB, or Friday Night Beer Blogging, but themis and I talked about a possible Wednesday version to tide us over.
I know I look forward to FNBB everyweek, and although Wednesday Beer Blogging can't be a regular feature by me, I was thinking that on weeks when I can't be around at all, or at least for the three or so hours it lasts, someone else could take the reins.
FNBBers, let me know what you think, and for those of you who are uninitiated I'll go over the rules, and post a link to last week's diary.
This weekly series [posted Friday (now possibly Wednesday a bit later) nights around 7PM CST] started because I chose Battlestar Galactica and beer over a night out. It was the perfect way to pass the time while waiting for the show to start.
FNBB, has five static questions that you should answer in your first post, to get the conversation started (well I guess the beer does that, but answer them anyway damnit). These are followed by an additional five questions that change every week regarding other crap.
Okay, grab a bottle opener and follow me below the fold. Also, don't say you're drinking cans. If you are then just make up a name for the 'microbrew' you're drinking. Seriously, if we haven't heard of it (perhaps because it doesn't exist) we'll think it's something special.
Last week's romp of a good time can be seen here.
I hope all of the regulars get a chance to come by and comment, and if there's interest, we'll not only work out the details, but I'll throw a new second five questions out there.

Sometimes I repeat myself when I'm drinking. I tend to say something twice.
Please only answer the poll if you are a veteran FNBBer or plan on joining our jolly gang soon.
More to come, as comments flow.
Prepare your bottles and drink hearty, for toninght we dine at Denny's.
Update: Crap! I forgot our themesong:
As promised, I'll kick in the final five. Please answer the first five too if you remember them, or have the energy to look them up in my last FNBB
- How long will it take before the RW starts bitching about Obama giving the Queen an iPod?
- How long until the RW calls Hillary a terrorist sypathizer for her talking with Taliban moderates? Remember, she was of the 'nuke Iran' position that Rush so loved.
- How long (in beers/drinks/shots do you have before tomorrow might be a shitty day?
- How long (in hours) have you been drinking?
- On a scale of 10-10 how awsome is Wednesday Night Beer Blogging?
Update 3: I only thought it fair to show the first five static questions:
- What are you drinking, and if it's prune juice, try a fiber suppliment instead? It tastes way less gross.
- Did you tell anyone you had plans, just so you could hang out on DKos?
- How [late (normally it says early)] did you [leave] work this afternoon?
- Are you going to be fixated on your computer monitor all [tomorrow (normally it says weekend)] (as I'm sure I will be), or are you going to do anything interesting? If so, what is it?
- What's your reason for beer blogging tonight?
