Emails to Dan Brauer

Dan Brauer did get a few interesting emails in his inbox as well, which we weren't able to share at the time due to obvious reasons. Wink

You might recognize the fourth person to email Dan:

Hi Dan,
Hope you saw the shoutout (to you) on my blog tonight.
Hard to be too frightened of something that can be spoofed so
brilliantly, you know? So thanks for the perspective check. Raging
satire... good cure for a dramatic freakout AND a hangover, I hear.
Let's get a beer together next time we're in the same time zone.
Cheers from Beijing,
Dana

Dan wants his beer now.

And the very first person to email Dan was quite complimentary as well:

Subject: you rule the whole world

as a big ARG fan, let me just say:
you rule the fucking world. excuse my awe-inspired language. Smile

that is the most raging satire I've seen, um.... ever.
execution: unbelievable.
the level of detail: out of the world. unreal.
the p.o. box... the spoofed comments... the myth of comatose.
you are such a rock star.
Oh my God.
I love it.

p.s. I mean, I'm sorry to hear about your beer issues, and I would love to help you however I can. Or get drunk with you. or whatever. yay beer!

Hey Jane. Raging satire is sooo amazing.... A few years ago a friend
of mine came back from Paradise Casino with a bunch of satire, a pair
of girl's underwear and a metal champagne glass with a straw, and we
drank the champagne with the panties on our heads and smoked the
satire. Definitely my choice method of drinking. I feel bad about
his infection, though.

Thanks for throwing your oar into my sea of drunken love. Let me know
what you think of me - maybe we could go out sometime. I've got a big
stick of raging satire with your name on it.

that's the mate email.
that's brilliant.

For the longest time, Dan couldn't figure out why Jane never posted her email interaction. Dan was not bright enough to realize that both Dana and Jane had used the same "raging satire" term to describe his site. Dan may need to lay off the sauce.

ILBeer Team

The ILoveBeer team did submit a request for membership in the crew at some point, but I imagine it got lost in the mass of email the PMs were dealing with. Only because I just ran across it while cleaning out my email box, I'm posting it here for everyone's enjoyment.

Quote:

I assembled a few of my crew at a public axon. Uncle Marc thought we were having a party and delivered a bunch of kegs of honey lager. Unfortunately, he totally blocked the axons with the kegs. We valiantly attempted to drink our way through.

I would have had a pic with me in it, but everyone else was too drunk to push the stupid little button.

The crew (left to right):

Gupfee, Bartender, Liquor Class
Krystyn, Flirts While Tipsy
SpaceBass, Bartender, FrooFroo Drinks
Jamesi, Class Clown
Bill, Bartender Emeritus
ScrappyDoo, Bartender, Vino

There were others, but they had passed out by the time we got the cameras out.

Yours in Spirits,
Dan, Indigent Brewmaster
