    I love me some micro-brews if I'm having a couple, but Miller Lite is my brand for some serious drinking.

    My guideline for writing papers is one beer per page. The only thing is, you have to go back the next morning and delete all the profanity.

    :eek:fftopic:

    I can't stand any of the corner store brands. The perfect balance between price and quality, for me, lie in Samuel Adams, Dogfish Head, Sierra Nevada and Hoegaarden.

    In truth, I'm not one to talk, however. As much as I hate Budweiser (it literally makes me vomit) I have a liking for certain varieties of malt liquor. Nobody takes seriously my beer snobbishness after they see me happily quenching with a 40oz of liquid death, purchased- of course- from the "bad" side of town.

    I am a Democrat but I don't follow politics very closely. I pay attention to local elections but my interest wanes as you go up the ladder because I think that the things that people say in order to get elected bear little resenblancve to what they are actually able to do in reality. If I was going to offer one basic criticism of the Republican party it would be that they never found a way to get William Buckley Jr. into a major political office. While I may not have agreed with him on everything, he was a brilliant guy and I think he was an honest guy. I am imagining that he is rolling over in his grave to see this group of Republican candidates.

    It tastes better from over "there" anyway.

    *pictures MC chillin' over a fotie with the guy who stands out side the 7-11 with knock-off Rolex's and DVD's for sale in his jacket*

    Also, "Politics, the last refuge for the shallow".

    Make your next degree an MFA in Creative Writing. Then you wouldn't have to worry about deleting the profanity!

    The hilarious part is that this depiction is 100% accurate. For some reason, convenience stores are considered a hang-out location in my city. When asked by the man with the huge jacket why I'm not interested in buying a $5 DVD of a movie still in theaters, he looks dumbfounded as I explain intellectual property rights and the social contract view of morality. I do it just to mess with him :tounge-in-cheek:

    Getting back to there only being Romney and Paul on the Virginia ballot, since the ballot access system in Virginia (and many other states) was designed to impede independent and minor party candidates, it's very amusing to me to see major party candidates get bit by their own dog.

    He he he! Out here in California, The Republicans fought hard over some redistricting changes that they thought would benefit them. It hasn't quite been working out the way they thought, so they are trying everything under the sun to rechange the rules. These guys just keep punching themselves in the face. :smile:
