Roasted salted peanuts...

[roomy]

...and beer are far more interesting than all things politic. But the more I think of it the more I am moved to rant about the lowering of alcohol content in certain beers while the price continues to rise, why can't politics keep it's greedy ignorant fucking nose out of all lifes fucking pleasures?

 

[Diuretic]

Who's doing that and where? Don't tell me Newcastle Brown Ale's going to go "lite"??????

Who do I attack?

 

[midcan5]

Peanuts and beer, sounds like a Hillary supporter.

 

[William Joyce]

I'm going downstairs right now.

 

[Gungnir]

That explains a few things.

Let's hope Miller and Bud don't outsource to China or we will have a lot of guys with the Diethylene Glycol Suprise.

Cashews or bust!!!

 

[Diuretic]

trying not to fall off the AHA bandwagon, crabcakes and margaritas are ringing my bell. Will not give in.

Diuretic, have you ever Waltzed the Matilda?

Never felt the need Gungnir, nor have I humped my bluey

That sounds really rude to an American but it's the same as waltzing Matilda.

WALTZING MATILDA The act of carrying the ‘swag’ (an alternate colloquial term is ‘humping the bluey’).

The Victoria Inn in Monterey does that, I love it, stayed there twice, second time the proprietor told us to get down early for the wine and cheese as they had a busload of German tourists who were about to get stuck in - we beat them to it by minutes

It's a really good beer, very clean finish and the label is neat - features the now extinct Thylacene (aka Tasmanian Tiger) (the bottles are engraved with the Thylacene as well).

Beer is a great diuretic.

It certainly is! You take in a litre and you lose two litres! I've never been able to work that out - I'm in fluid deficit

It was a lovely spot. Came on it first time competely by accident. I was able to watch lectures from universities on cable there, that was neat, archaeology from UCLA was one I remember. They did the wine and cheese thing in the Holiday Inn Express in Yuma as well, except I didn't have to rush in before the German tourists

heh... always good to beat the rush.

I think you've seen more of my country than I have. lol... I've been out to the San Francisco area and Wisconsin. Other than that I've pretty much only done the east coast.
