We're just in from an uneventful re-supply run, where we cut corners and bought beer at Wally-World instead of the beer store, which is our usual practice. But Wally-World surprises me at times... and this is indicative:
From that Lil Ol' Brewery in Shiner, Tejas... it's Bohemian (style) Black Lager, rated B- at Beer Advocate. I'd go a notch higher and give it a full-blown "B" but I'm easy, yanno? Our cigar today is (what's left of) one of those Nica Libre 1990s I was on about yesterday.

My Buddy Ed In Florida comes through again:
The economy is so bad that...
I got a pre-declined credit card in the mail.
Wives are having sex with their husbands because they can't afford batteries.
CEOs are now playing miniature golf.
A stripper was killed when her audience showered her with rolls of pennies while she danced.
I saw a Mormon with only one wife.
If the bank returns your check marked "Insufficient Funds," you call them and ask if they meant you or them.
Angelina Jolie adopted a child from America .
My cousin had an exorcism but couldn't afford to pay for it, so they re-possessed her!
A picture is now only worth 200 words.
When Bill and Hillary travel together, they now have to share a room.
Congress says they are looking into this Bernard Madoff scandal. Oh Great! The guy who made $50 Billion disappear is being investigated by the people who made $1.5 Trillion disappear!
I was so depressed last night thinking about the economy, wars, jobs, my savings, Social Security, retirement funds, etc., I called the Suicide Hotline. I got a call center in Pakistan , and when I told them I was suicidal, they got all excited, and asked if I could drive a truck.
Some of these have a lotta miles on 'em, but a couple were new to me. They're ALL good, though.

We're listening to Neil today...
Funny stuff, but Neil bugs me. Guess I'm on Lynyrd Skynyrd's side of that feud.
ReplyDeleteBeats what I was listening to (schmaltz again).
ReplyDeleteGod I love a good schmaltz song. I think my R&R days have ended.
I saw my little pinky sticking out when I caught myself in the mirror drinking some $2 Merlot...
WV: watear (what ear maybe??)
Your Wally-World is has a better beer selection than the one closest to me. However, the Albertson's in Tehachapi has a really good selection. But then there is BevMo in Palmdale. A veritable cornucopia of malt beverages!
ReplyDeleteBut in Rochester NY there is a store that sells only micros and high quality imports. My Eldest Son took me to it after I got off the plane. It was a really amazing place, about the size of a Pep Boys store, including the service bays.
That Shiner sure looks mighty tasty. I enjoy dark beers.
ReplyDeleteMagic Wordy Thingy... veins.
Hmmm, maybe my love for dark beers is in my veins! lol.
Inno: This is just a gut-feeling thang, but I'd wager Neil's sold more records than LS.
ReplyDeleteGod I love a good schmaltz song. I think my R&R days have ended.
We're on opposite sides of that coin, Anon. I hope my R&R days never end!
Glenn: I've prolly been in that beer store in Ra-cha-cha, particularly if the one you're talking about is in a strip mall on the southeast side of the city. Thta place was a weekly stop of mine, given it was on my home from work.
Anon: That Shiner WAS tasty. You and me both, when it comes to dark beer!
Being a Texas girl, I love me some Shiner - not necessarily dark though. And you know I like Neal. I'm an cheap date.
ReplyDeleteI'm an cheap date.
ReplyDeleteMy kinda girl, Lou... my kinda girl! (Speakin' in generalities, of course.)
