How the heck else do you think we survive? Beer was invented by a Sumerian teacher. It is a known fact. They sure made a good ka on that one!

This thread is too difficult for me to participate in. I look and stare at it, like a beer caught in a headlight.

Well, off I go. Have to get my car gassed up. Sadly, the worker has to run the pumps AND the new Subway that they stuck in there which takes up so much of his time. Tastes great, less filling.

Man, has anyone enjoyed playing old games on their PC? The only problem running DOS is that my keyboard doesn't always work. In fact, all the keyboards I have seem to have the same problem. I have problems with their DOS "A" Keys.

Many of these puns are leaving me flat. I prefer those that are sparkling. My wife gets tired of me wasting time on here when I could be doing something productive. I often champaign in my back and claim the computer chair is the most comfortable. This ruse rarely leaves her bubbly.

People that are addicted to alchohol have their own organization that backs them up, support, compassion, a stern lecture when called for. I would like an organziation for lovers of alchohol that aren't addicted, one that would bacchus in our daily lives. Whaddya all think?

All the recent political friction has sparked some (for me, rare) serious contemplation about WMD's It seems that WMD's are now the rallying cry. We keep hearing about so and so has WMD's and that's not fair. If we use our military might to enforce our complaint that it isn't fair, would that be called a fortified whine?

When it comes down to it, though, isn't this all really about gin-etics? I think it will all just fizz-le out slo-ly.

Did you hear about the waiter that was fired for delivering liquour to a japanese customer that was a devout teetotaler. The waiter swears the man said, "Irish Cream, please".

Not a pun: (Oh, Punwit, my husband served a roomful of AA members creme de menthe parfaits once. Luckily, one of them asked what it was before he ate it.)

Suggestion for a new movie, mixed version:

Lords of the Binges IV

Synopsis:
Gimlet and Lemonas become bored, and when they hear that Saurignon has kidnapped Queen Genever, they set out on a new adventure. They are captured and thrown in the Bunghole where they have to fight a dangerous Flagon. But Merlot, the whizzered, comes to their rescue. Syrah Lancelot soddenly appears and whiskys the lady away…

There’s rum for improofment. Anyone?
And I need help with casking.

Wal-Mart is where you go for regular shopping.
If you want to buy in bulk, you go to their Sam's Club.

But they realized there was no place to go for buying small amounts.

That is why the are introducing the Wal-MARTINI.

Its a great place. I am there so often some say Olive at the Wal-MARTINI. The truth is vemouth-ing in next week.

Pardon my Dry wit.

There does seem to be a twist to this story, Bob. I am straining to figure it out, but it will be neat when I do.

My attempts to construct a Lambic pentameter have proved daunting. Each attempt left me stranded up a Kriek without a paddle. You'd never Gueuze how difficult this process can be.

Busy schedule today so I Muscat. I'll return later with more Plzen thoughts.

Elizabeth, do you think our Wit automatically earns us the designation as Weiss guys?

*Schuss away any Weiss guys with sarcastic remarks on their agenda.*

Edit to explain the term schuss since a search didn't immediately reveal the appropriate definition. Schuss is a green (woodruff) or red (rasberry) sweet additive for Berliner Weiss beers that offset the astringent/sour nature of that style of beer. Look for Berliner Weiss mit Schuss. Actually here you go.

Yes, I think so. My friend Lee doesn;t, though. When we went to the Bar, Lee Wined a lot.

(Edit: Punwit, you must come and visit so we can go to the Moan and Dove together)

Anyone worried about the new "disease of the month" coming out of southeast asia? While not the Hong Kong Flu, it is draining. For me, I'll pass on getting the India Pale Ail.

And sadly, the minimal dosage is a Pint. Doesn't that seem excessive? You would have thought a Shot would be enough.

Man, Hurrican Ivan is tough! It slammed Alabama very hard. No sex on the beach last week, for sure. And those mudslides were terrible! It must have been particularly dangerous for those whose houses were built on the rocks.

I don't know why they skipped right to Jeanne with the Hurricanes. Clearly Harvey would have been next. We had Frances, roof toppler. Ivan, tree thrower and Harvey, wall banger.

I hate to be an I told you so type but I've never understood those folks that say Florida is such a wonderful utopian like paradise. The hot humid weather is enough to dissuade me much less the hurricanes that shatter the Sangria La myth.
