TGIF: Top 7 Reasons to Crack a Cold One Tonight (vanity)
PA Times | 10/28/05 | Dr. Pissant

Posted on 10/28/2005 3:11:52 PM PDT by pissant

It's been a helluva week in Freeperville. I'm sure there is much relief, as well as some ongoing anxiety. While many freepers rejoiced at the SCOTUS news, others were on edge over the CIA leak drama, and still others didn't give a rat's rear end about much. Regardless of the category you belong to, it IS the friday before Halloween and frosty adult Beverages are necessitated by the occasion.

Top 7 Reasons to Pop a Cold One Tonight

7. Wounded Warriors Beer & Brat fund

The Freeperettes came thru to send funds to treat some wounded heroes to a night of R & R in Ramstein, Germany. Marmar will be the gracious hostest and official photographer.

6. Poland Elected a Right Wing Gov't

Following on the heels of the German elections, some hope for Europe is in the cards.

5. Mr. Sulu and Cheryl Swoopes came out of the Closet

I always thought that the way Sulu said "yes, Captain" to James T. Kirk seemed suspicious!

4. Karl Rove is Still Employed

Much to the utter despair of Chrissy Matthews and Joe "Frogmarch" Wilson, Rove may still be around to inflict further damage to the socialists (read Democrats) for awhile yet.

3. Harriet Miers Showed Alot of Class

I wanted to see her in the confirmation hearings, to demonstrate what she was made of. But for the good of the conservative movement, she stepped aside, knowing Bush would never have asked her to do that. Here's to you, Harriet.

2. Mr. Jeeves survived his Showdown with the Freeperettes

Our resident dating guru suffered a series of bodyblows in the "Stupid Lies Women tell Themselves" thread this week. But I have it on good authority that he is resting comfortably in a Bay area institution.

1. US Beer Consumption has Dropped

While the overall economy grew at an impressive 3.8% this past quarter, the beer industry has been flat. We all must do our part to help revive this vital industry.

You've sold me on at least a couple of points. Though I have not bought clothes from Nordy's in about 25 years. ;o)

Reason #5,002,254 why I love FR. The beer threads. I've discovered lots of new beers, wines, and whiskeys since becoming a FReeper.

Now I've got to shill for one of my favorites:

Just curious. I'll gladly consume whatever they have on the premises. Especially if my mouth is parched and my quads are sore form skiing all day!

I very much like the Arrogant Bastard. Had it on tap in Walla Walla, Wa. It was tasy.

Not as big a fan of the New Belguim, but I went to their brewhouse in Fort Collins, Co. last year. Very cool.

I saw that in the store last week. Should I buy a six pack or try just a bottle?

My liver is made of titanium, which means that I can drink the entire population of Wisconsin under the table.
