I'd never leave. Mas cerveza, por favor.

Peruvian beer:

Most Peruvian beer - except for cerveza malta (black malt beer) - is bottled lager almost exclusively brewed to five percent, and extremely good. In Lima the two main beers are Cristal and Pilsen. Cuzqueña (from Cusco) is one of the best and by far the most popular at the moment, but not universally available; you won't find it on the coast in Trujillo, for example, where they drink Trujillana, nor are you likely to encounter it in every bar in Arequipa where, not surprisingly perhaps, they prefer to drink Arequipeña beer. You can usually buy Cuzqueña in Lima though.

Interviewer: Can't you distinguish between operations against civilians and against soldiers, even from a psychological point of view?" Umm Nidal: There is no difference. This is Islamic religious law. I don't invent anything. I follow Islamic religious law in this. A Muslim is very careful not to kill an innocent person, because he knows he would be destined to eternal Hell. So the issue is not at all simple. We rely on Islamic religious law when we say there is no prohibition on killing these people.

This makes absolutely no sense to me. A+ for you!

There was a European newspaper (perhaps in Sweden) that carried that picture and they were freaked out that Bush would flash a satanic symbol. Those Euros are a wacky bunch.
