Authorities are hoping to break up what must be quite the party after beer thieves made off with almost $26,000 worth of suds from a delivery truck.

I have no idea. If I was going to got through the trouble of stealing a semitrailer full in Wisconsin, I'd at least go for Leinenkugel's, rather than some rotten swill like Miller.

You are correct, I wouldn't give my dog Miller beer! Heck I think we should give Miller to the palastinain parasites -- bad beer - bad people.

Which was it - Miller or beer?

If it was Miller it was not beer. If that was a truck load of English Pale Ale a good place to find the truck would be under a tarp in my back yard. :)

How are ya, Bruce.
Bruce I:
How are ya, Bruce.
Bruce II:
What's all this lot, Bruce?
Bruce I:
It's very nice to be here at the Hollywood Bowl this evening! We're all philosophy professors from the University of Woolamaloa, Australia!
All Bruces:
Hey, Australia, Australia, Australia! God love ya!
Bruce I:
I teach Hegelian philosophy, Bruce here teaches Aristotolean philosophy, and Bruce here is in charge of the sheep dip.
Bruce II:
[Cough] Bloody difficult work, I tell ya!
Bruce I:
I'll tell you what, it's thirsty work watching this kind of humor, Bruce. Why don't you just stick out a few of these little free examples from your Esky and leave ----
Bruce II:
What, give these ---- give these Americans our precious cans of ----
[Bruce II throws cans of Fosters from his ice box into the audience.]
Bruce I:
See how awful they are, grasping and go-getting.
Bruce II:
Okay, one over there.
Bruce I:
You can feel morally superior and smug.
Bruce II:
Right, there's one coming right over there. Mind out, charlies! A big one, one big one, there we go!
Bruce I:
All right! Now, the reason we do this, ladies and bruces, is frankly over here we find your American beer is a little like making love in a canoe!
Bruce III:
Making love in a canoe?
Bruce I:
It's f***ing close to water!

We did this in 1979; the charge (eventually) was "joyriding" and everyone from the judge to the cops to the Pabst (a better beer then millers) representive had a laugh over our situation.
