Wolfowitz in the World Bank. ANWR. Iraq. Fuck it. Bar is open.
Edited on Wed Mar-16-05 05:06 PM by WilliamPitt
Today is serve-yourself-day. You are welcome to my stash:

* Brand new bottle of Grey Goose chilling in the freezer;

* Four-pack of Boddington's;

* Four-pack of Tetley's English Ale;

* Most of a bottle of Glenlivet;

* About one glass worth of red wine.

Get it yourselves. I'm too busy grinding my teeth.

14. Eureka, California.
Great White is an herb-infused wonder that I just cannot get enough of. Their Downtown Brown, Indica IPA and Alleycat Amber are also great, as are their seasonal fruit-infused beers (found only at the brewery, sadly.

And they've got a stout (the name of which escapes me at the moment) that will absolutely knock you on your ass.

So far, it's the only one of their products I've tried, but it's a good one. :beer:

Downtown Brown is better, IMO. Hell, I think I'll go down to the LCB for dinner tonight!

on edit-- I'm drinking an Indika right now!

double edit-- Eight Ball Stout

17. ooohhhh....I'm jealous!!
GREAT pub food. We look for any excuse to escape to Eureka whenever possible (we're in Sonoma County).

And my husband is fascinated to the point of obsession that their indica tastes like THAT indica (think of a certain non-legal herb, if you don't know what I'm referring to). Would love to know how they achieve that.

Drink one for me!

9. Fuck that, quite respectfully.
When are we gonna hit the streets? What do you say, Will? When will the protests come? Summer? Late spring?

What is it going to take for people to ooze through their shell of complacency and defeatism and get good and mad? Is a draft the only thing that will do that? If it is, then these guys are smart enough to know that they can never institute a draft.

I wouldn't get legless for these guys if you held a gun to my head. That would just give them way too much satisfaction.

I just got home from playing two wonderful concerts and in the first 5 minutes I find out all of this. Well shit. Someone pass me a tequila, I don't even care if it is the good stuff. It might as well be rot gut for all I care right now.

51. Thank you. This is the only way I can drink alcohol.
Symbolically is fine. I quit but drinking was the way I got through the Nixon Administration. Imagine me a six pack of the old Loewenbrau beer when it was still made only in Bavaria. Or a nice bottle of Schloss Vollrads trockenbeerenauslese!
