why would anyone drink beer?

Josh Hamilton is better than you.

by Longhorn on Jul 27, 2008 5:38 PM CDT   0 recs

There's some beer out there that actually is good.

Hard to find sometimes, though. I drink beer very, very rarely.

to be drunk

If there were no rewards to reap,
no loving embrace to see me through this tedious path I've chosen here,
I certainly would've walked away by now... Be patient

yeah, dumb

give me a break

like being drunk isn’t fun

right

Do you never drink?

Is it a religious thing or you just don’t like to.

I rarely agree with Longhorn, but. . .

I’ve been drunk enough times in my life that I’m willing to call it dumb, and unlikely something I’ll be too many times more in my life.

by philkid3 on Jul 27, 2008 5:45 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

i don't know longhorn

And go to UT, so we may have some things in common

But wondering why people drink beer is ridiculous

Miller Chill is horrible.

Just responding to the question in the last thread.

It’s probably just because I don’t like Miller. Or any watered down cheap US beer, really.

Lime is one of my favorite flavors on God’s green earth, though.

it looks horrible

bud light lime is not any better, whoever said that

terrible excuses for beer

Grad school

actually Germany does some weird stuff though. I was in Berlin and people were mixing their beer with Sprite. It was crazy.

The Rangers are down by one in the 9th innnin looking for a sweep of the A's.

Lone Star Ball is engaged in a long conversation about sucky beer.

Mr. Meals

Is apparently confused by Ziegler. I haven’t seen back to back pitches that far outside called strikes, ever.

Hughes
“It hasn’t affected the teams asking for him, I can promise you that,” Cashman said. “It seems like every time it’s a decent name, the demand is Phil Hughes.

I hope JD asked Cashman for Hughes when they called about Laird…hahaha.

I just watched the trailer for Oliver Stone's W movie

Exactly who is the target demographic for that? The right? The left? One side will claim it’s a biased movie; the other is just sick of Bush.

I consider myself more towards the left

I have no desire at all to see it. I don’t give a damn about Bush’s story.

by chief on Jul 27, 2008 5:49 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

Well

this movie won’t be an objective telling of Bush’s story anyways so maybe you would like it.
