Well, the old joke over here about Texans is that they are living proof that Native Americans had amourous relationships with buffalo and skunk!!

This is great. I have been back 3 minutes and already people are diving for cover and a hybrid Texan California (would that be a Texifornian?) is starting to square up.

Anyone seen where I put that Byzantine horde of armoured killer mongooses?

PS nobody seems to have mentioned the fluffy bunny waitresses for a long time? Have they quit or did Mac show them his interesting collection of slides of run down factories in Cleveland

PPS noted also that no North American has taken issue with my remarks about the quality of US beer. Nice to see that the level of decorum and civility on this thread is such that people dont take umbrage at the TRUTH

No one has taken offense at your insult directed towards NA beer due to the fact that any sane being, such as myself, would rather drink something much better than any beer; namely, Vodka!

Why you inbred, blue-blooded, pasty-faced, bucked-tooth, big-eared, hang-dog faced varmint !!!

Ooops....

Wait a minute...that's the Queen. Or maybe it's that Charlie fella, or one them royal pains in the &@##...

Any how, yessiree - a Texan is part buffalo, part polecat, part cougar, part tornado, part cactus, part horny toad ( heavy on the HORNY part ), and all fire and brimstone. Mess with the thunder of Texas and you'll call down the BOOM !!!!





(sounds impressive, don't it? )

Well I'm pretty sure the British royalty is inbred, and has been for several generations. Hey, you can't help getting something that looks like, and is as intelligent as Charles after several generations of inbreeding...

You think the British Royalty is inbred?

Just ask ol'GT to divulge his opinion on the part of the UK I live in. Carlisle, Cumbria. I'm telling you now, The Texans have got off lucky so far

I'm American. I just happen to agree that pretty near all mass-produced American beer might just as well be p*** water . Still, in recent years, there have sprung up a large number of local "micro-breweries," some of whom make very passable beverages. I hope the trend continues.

Good god. I'm pretty sure I've been comeing to this forum too long, if young Renegade is now old enough to drink. It wasnt THAT long ago that Fyron started drinking.

Glad to see that the timehonored tradition of alcoholism is still tying the species together. Huzzah for us!

Default Re: Beer

(the following is an excerpt taken from a British underground clandestine newspaper)

... it has been found that the beer types here in England are actually not alchol at all but contain sassperella, discolored to look like beer or ale. It has been also noted that when those who partake of this conconction try the US or Canadian made booze, they grab their unmentionables and run to the nearest inner sanctum since their metabolizm is unable to dissolve the stronger median.... It goes on to say, that if you ever tasted or tryed sassperella then you know what British beer and ale taste like

signed.... The Tipsy Revolutionaries of England


well now, could this be true... is this the real facts of what is going on across the atlantic???? hmmm, this calls for a UN investigation and possible sanctions against those who try to impart this upon an unsuspecting public.....

Well, it's barely been 3 months that I've been able to *legally* drink.

Default Re: Beer

Way to go, Mac !!!

By the way, GT, the proper way in TEXAS to drink beer is to use it as a chaser after a double-shot of Jose Cuervo.

Wonder how those uppity Pom's with their feeble constitutions and water-thin blood could handle THAT !!!
