    Mono - BRAVO!!!

    Atheist - agree on the beer, 45 angle rule was somehow forgotten

    Some of you remember Denise Richards in early days? Or hate hairs in nose (I cried yesterday because of it)?

    Smile and eyes are top; boobs and *** will be ruined after first child or after hard break up

    Pilsner, wheat/white beer or black beer? What do you prefer?

    P.S. Bud and something from Australia (Forest ?)- only two outside from Europe I tried and also two worst beers I ever tried.

    Well...I don't have any boobs yet, but as I guess as I get older, I'll have to get me one of Kramer's Bro contraptions (Seinfeld episode). But I do work in the construction field...that's where we hoot and holler...and make cat calls...right?

    Fosters? Does it come in a dark blue can? They can't be worse than Stella Atois (sp?)

    Hey guys,

    I'm loving all the wonderful topics that this thread addresses: beer, chicks, poetry, beer, chicks, beer. . . But something was missing (to me at least): fish. Do any of you all go fishing? If so, I can' think of a better place than here to tell your "big fish" stories.

    When I'm not at work, I'll post a picture of a beautiful brook trout (speckled trout, for the Canucks here) that I have mounted to the wall of my reading room.

    Yeah i reckon hes on about Fosters. Possibly the rankest beer on the planet.

    Nose hair!

    That's another of the things which prove that god is really a woman. I mean, childbirth, periods, bah - they're nothing; women would give up if they had to go through what we men do.

    It would definitely be Fosters, because that is the second-worst beer in the world.

    Just behind Budweiser as the worst.

    Fishing? You bet.

    I dunno about that stuff you catch in rivers & lakes though - fishing is what we do in the sea and I don't think the excuse that the sea is 8000 miles away is much of an excuse.

    This is just my daughter's best catch from a while back:

    Go to work, get married, have some kids, pay your taxes, pay your bills, watch your tv, follow fashion, act normal, obey the law and repeat after me: "I am free."

    In response to the aforementioned female tennis players, Ana Ivanovic (the third one) is by far the most attractive. Brunettes.

    Are men obsessed with beer or something? I'd take straight whiskey over it any day.

    Yes it is in a dark blue can and tastes absolutely dreadful but because it is weak and cheaper than many other beers, it is popular with teenagers. One must be carefull in pubs when talking about beers though because it could cause trouble. I went into a pub and asked for a pint of lager. The barman asked if I wanted Fosters and I said "That's only for women and children" and ordered something else. When the barman asked a guy standing next to me what he wanted, he replied "Fosters."
    Stella Artois is a better drink but no match for Leffe Blonde which is the best lager in the world and rather expensive.
    You must remember that we do not have the Reinheitsgebot in the UK, so most German lagers are made here under licence and bear no relation to the original German beers.

    Stella Artois makes me want to kill myself. I do not mind some Fosters, though. There are a lot of American beers that can compete with both of those on the 'nasty' scale.

    I prefer the Vermont beer Magic Hat Number 9

    EDIT: but then again, I'm American, what do I know

    I admit that I haven't had Stella Artois for some time so perhaps it has deteriorated in the interim. There are a number of American beers other than Budweiser available in the UK such as Coors and Miller Light but they are all pretty tasteless, as are the majority of British lagers. There is one really powerfull British lager called Tennants Super which does live up to its name but is very strong and, as far as I know, cannot be bought in pubs but is sold in tins. Americans and others coming to these shores are often puzzled by English Ale, colloquially known as bitter, and is completely different from lager and drunk by a large part of the male drinking public. It is, in my view, a much tatstier beer than lager and is also cheaper. The one drawback is the calorie count which means an increase in weight greater than that for lager drinkers. I like it but for visiting foreigners it is an acquired taste, I heard one German describe it as like drinking diesel oil.
