And people wondered why I bought that cider press.

If the nanny statists limit me to one beer a day, I will do what patients in mental hospitals do with their pills to get a buzz. Hoard/hide the one beer I’m limited to until I have enough (3 or 4) and drink them all at once. The days in between will be tough.

Especially for those of us around you...

Interesting, while at the same time, the once great state of Oregon gives out free hypodermic needles and syringes and, via Measure 110, just legalized/decriminalized personal possession of true wreckers of people and families, namely cocaine, heroin, oxycodone and methamphetamine. (No straws, of course.)

You think beer hasn't wrecked people and families?

MADD and their lobbyists are now pushing for a .02 limit, nationwide.

Is that for driving or just in general? That's like one drink, even for a larger person.

The AG is William Barr.

Bob Barr is the former Congressman from Georgia.

If you can find a six / twelve pack of Yuengling Hersheys Chocolate Porter, try some.

I've heard good things, glad they bottled it this year. Yuengling isn't distributing to Texas yet, though - hope it lasts in Louisiana until I visit there next month.

BTW, if you like stouts and porters, look for Prairie Artisan Ale's seasonal products. Pricier than Yuengling, but... wow.

Of course I do, and I did not say otherwise.

My worry is that cocaine, opioids, amphetamines, and a few others will now have an easier path to addict more folks, and will also have an easier pathway into schools.

I brew my own. So there’s that....


During Prohibition cans of malt extract were sold with the warning: “Do not mix the contents of this can with 1 gallon of water, add yeast and keep in a covered container in a cool place for a week or you will make the illegal beverage beer.”
