They didn't have summer intern jobs like this when I was in school.

Brewer killed while keg washing.

I will go out and buy a Red Hook today and drink it in honor of a fellow brewer!

A neutron walks into a bar. "I'd like a beer" he says. The bartender promptly serves up a beer. "How much will that be?" asks the neutron. "For you?" replies the bartender, "no charge"

I may need to change my church. I bet they serve beer for communion here.

As William Blake once wrote:
But if at the church they would give us some ale,
And a pleasant fire our souls to regale,
We'd sing and we'd pray all the live-long day,
Nor ever once wish from the church to stray.

So I pushed a rubber stopper into the carboy on accident... Oops! I was using the wrong size... I looked on the internet for ways to get it out and I came up with this neat trick.. I'll let you know how well it works when I rack it sometime next week.

No reason why that shouldn't work. I've done a similar method using a dish towel, and no blow job! Just shove part of the towel in, align cork and pull out.
