Guff, where's that link to the beer song ?  I'm just DYING for one now.

 

Been at work since 4am. Leaving in 15 minutes. Stopping on the way home to score 2 cases.

 

Have a great Thanksgiving.  GO BILLS !

Well, I can't offer to buy you a beer, but can give you some virtual stuff, and I will raise a toast to you and all Bills fans tomorrow. Happy T-day!

 

CHICKEN SOUP FOR THE BEER DRINKER

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel shamed. Then

I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of

their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of

work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is

better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be

selfish and worry about my liver."

~ Jack Handy

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning,

that's as good as they're going to feel all day. "

~Frank Sinatra

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"An intelligent man is sometimes forced to be drunk to spend time with his

fools."

~ Ernest Hemingway

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading."

~ Henny Youngman

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not."

~ Stephen Wright

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we

fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven.

Sooooo, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!"

~ Brian O'Rourke

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."

~ Benjamin Franklin

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is

beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the

wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."

~ Dave Barry

BEER: HELPING UGLY PEOPLE HAVE SEX SINCE 3000 B.C.!!!

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can!

And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff Clavin, of Cheers. One

afternoon at Cheers, Cliff Clavin was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his

buddy Norm. Here's how it went:

"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as

fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest

and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection

is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of

the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest

members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as

the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills

brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells

first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain

cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. ! That's why

you always feel smarter after a few beers."

Amen! Can't wait to get home and sit back with a few cold ones tonight. I have been a homebrewing fiend the past few months. :lol: I have three beers on tap currently and three backing those up in the fermenters. I was going through my notes the other day and I have brewed 120 gallons of beer since january. I just might have a problem.

"Jonesing"... Has that mid '60's term resurfaced?

 

Back then, it was an urge, such as having a "luv jones", and there was a popular song (explicit for the time), "Me and Mrs. Jones".

 

Can "camp", "gear", groovey", and "right on" be far behind? :lol:

I'm making a suggestion that we also reinstate these words.....

 

The clap- Even for a STD Gonorrhea sounds way to dirty

Floozy- Damn it (insert womens name) stop being such a floozy. Has a much better ring to it then slut.

Thanks, but a 30 minutes cab ride would be pretty damn expensive, and a DUI would be a bit more... thanks though!

"Basketball Jooooones,

I've got the basketball jones oh baby ooo-wooo-ooooooo...."

 

"...that basketball was like a basketball to me."

That's true. I used the same excuse in May for SunFest.

 

Enjoy your holiday.

Actually, quite a time ago, a floozy (ofter spelled floozie) was more of what we now call a ditz. A floozie could be a slut, but back then a more common usage for such were the words, strumpet, tramp, and trollope. Very socially devasting.

 

There are a few analogous terms for males of low repute. For example, the original meaning of the term "jerk" had nothing to do with dispensing soda ice cream preparations, nor a person with an odd personality.

I've made some nice homebrews in the past.

 

Just noticed the avatar----do you really have Bills bottle caps on your beer? If so, where'd you find them?
