When exploring the hills, streams and trails of Alaska, many people like to carry a beer or two, even if it means adding weight to an already-bulky pack, pulk or gear bag. Well, thanks to Kevin Tubbs of Yukon Spirits in the University Center, hauling your favorite brews just got a whole lot easier.

  The Banana Republican Hour
 
With your host Luis Gonzalez
 
  
This weeks guest:
 
 
Brothers to the Rescue founder, José Basulto
 
  
 
  
  
 On February 24, 1996, three light aircraft left Miami on a routine flight. Their missions, to search the waters off the Florida Coast for rafters trying to reach the US shores, and bring them help by guiding the US Coast Guard to their location. That day in February, only one plane would return to its home base in Miami. 
Tune in to Radio FreeRepublic this Thursday, March 14, at 9 PM EST, and listen to the actual sounds of a terrorist in action, murdering unarmed American citizens. 
Sr. José Basulto, founder of Brothers to the Rescue and pilot of the surviving Cessna, will shed light on the events of that day, and detail how the Clinton administration withheld advanced knowledge of the attack from the humanitarian volunteer group, helping seal the fate of these four courageous flyers. 
Radio FreeRepublic, fearless talk radio.

    Years ago went camping in the Ten Lakes Basin area of Yosemite.Knew it was going to be a tough hike,switchbacks all the way,so we decided the beer was to heavy.
Got there after a hell of a hike with our 50lb packs.
I walked to the edge of the lake,taking in the beautiful view,looked down and at my feet ,icy cold in the water was a half case of beer.
Yes there is a beer God.

    a new spring break favorite, to be sure! Lightweight, easy to slip past hotel security, no annoying broken glass to deal with, but size would be an issue. Will they make 40 oz. beer baggies?
