Not even Thankgiving yet, sheesh! Here we find the lonely 225, waiting for its owner to fix its fuel delivery problem. It sure does look pretty, though.
Hey Zach The same system came trough here yesterday. I went out with the quads and it was just amazing 20cm in all. I still have to winterize my wheels yet. I feel kinda guilty leaving it outside in the snow. Last year we didn't get the white stuff till late december. I think this ones gonna stay. Another 10cm on the way tonight. Better get crackin:stmad: Marc p.s Don't worry about the pump. Wait till spring, it'll still be there
Hmm, never heard anyone talk about snowfall in cm before, how novel I don't get out of the US much, LOL :laugh:
Hey Scott The feeling is mutual. When I went to Indy I had to drink that crappy beer you guys have. Never knew beer could taste...well what taste??? LOL:beer That's ok we all races quarter mile.....EH ! :laugh: All jokes aside the U.S is an awesome country:TU: Warm weather, nice women and awesome racin' Marc
Marc, I sure hope you're not trying to pass off Labatt's Blue as a high quality beer. Sleeman's on the other hand..., you'd have to compare to a real Wisconsin Microbrew!! I must admit though I love it when I see something that a Canadian considers to be their "favourite"!! Our snow has come and gone... for now:bglasses:
Up here in the great white north (well central) Minnesota we haven't even had ANY accumulation. And they're talking 50's tommarrow.:laugh: :laugh:
Man I'm glad I live on the west coast.. :gt: :spank: Tho it is darn pretty!!! Stay warm and dry guys!
eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeekkkk!!! Get that 'Lectra outta the snow! ou: .....and get the snow blower outta the garage. :eek2:
Hey Mr. Marc! I'll have you know the US is chock full of micro breweries that would knock you parka off. I'll have to send you a case of Bar Harbor Real Ale when I get up to Maine. Or maybe a nice Ginger Wheat, or maybe a Blueberry Ale. :eek2: .....so many beers, so little time. :beer
Ken I've got lots of time if youve got lots of beer:beer Marc p.s the parka's not out yet but by the looks of it this morning I think I will need it 15cm today arrrgggghhh!:shock:
I'm not defending American beer. I much prefer Canadian beer to any other, however I just want to point out why the American beer is the way it is. It isn't that our beer is just the best we could do. Quite the contrary. It is different for good reason. Many, many years ago, a Mr. Busch decided he wanted to brew a beer that was different. He didn't like how all the beer brewed at that time (mainly small independant brewers) was very heavy and not too thirst quenching. Much like the thick, yeasty English beers. So he set out to create a lighter beer that didn't fill you up and even took the dust out of your throat after plowing the back 40. And Budweiser was born. I saw a TV show about American beverages (I watch a lot of PBS and Discovery). Hell, I even watched an hour long show about cement!
Any of you guys drink Yuengling? Oldest brewery in the U.S. Only thing my uncle in PA would drink. I finally tasted it last year, it was quite good. Can't get it down here in SC so we drink Rolling Rock.
natural ice light I drink the above becuase it is the cheapest, and still tastes good. 24 cans for $10.59 Besides, it is the only thing I can drink in mass quantities and not wake up the next day brain dead. The rest of my family drinks from the fountain of Linnenkugal. You guys ever try mississippi mud? Josh
Heineken is my poison. Or Special Export if I'm low on funds. Some states don't sell strong beer, maybe Indiana is one of them. o No: The first time I went to Iowa where my wife's mother lives, I bought my usual Heineken. Took one sip and almost spit it out .:gt: Turns out they don't sell strong beer in Iowa so I have to import my own from Minnesota when we go done there. (or would it be export it?) 3.2% Heineken, that ain't right. :beer
Zach, don't feel too bad...I awoke one morining in April, a few years ago, and found my convertible not only under over two feet of snow, but, if you'd beleive it, not one, not two, but THREE pine trees. They were about 10 inches in diameter, one on the hood, two on the back deck. Thank GOD they missed the roof. There was so much snow on the car before they fell, the only damage to the car was one long shallow scratch on the hood that I later hand rubbed out (mostly ). The only damage to me was a near fatal coronary, and the nasty cold I had from sawing three trees away from my car while up to my knees in snow...I didn't even put on my coat I was so shocked, I went out in my t-shirt, old gym shorts, and a pair of sneakers. The next year, I made sure that I didn't take the car out of storage quite so early... Marc, American beer isn't usually very good. that's why we import. I'm lucky, Sam Adams has a brewhouse right down the street. I'm so spoiled with beer, ale and stout that if I can only get a Samuel Adams Boston Ale, I consider it a lousy bar. If all I can get's a Harpoon, I'll have a Coke instead. And if Belhaven's on tap, well, I'm a regular there. Canadian beer....four words: Love in a Canoe:laugh:
Hi Mike, I drink Yuengling beer (Lager). Living in central PA also helps but, they opened a brewery in Tampa, FL. not too long ago. I'm surprised none of it came your way yet. It's really the only beer I drink. Btw, Yuengling just came out with a light beer. Rob
My personal favorite beer is Alaska Beer. :TU: Yes, guys, it is a real beer. A dark earthy ale. And stout:Brow: Goes down very smooth, especially after a nice shot of Jim Beam!uzzled: Only problem is, I can't get it here in NE. :ball:
Prohibition and WWII nearly Killed American Beer!!!!! The twenties shut down tons of breweries in the US since their product was illegal (Strohs survived by making ice cream!!!) Then, during WWII, women were incorporated into the workforce and replaced the men who were overseas as beer consumers. The remaining breweries pandered to the "female taste" with lighter and lighter beers until the 1980's when there were no beers left that were fit for a MAN to drink. Things got so bad that real beer lovers took to HOMEBREWING which had not been common since Prohibition. This led to a resurgence in small brewpub and microbrewery operations (Sam Adams used to be one of these). Now we have a much better choice, but there is a major problem of WIMPS who can't handle anything with more flavor than Bud Light. There is no shortage of good beer in the states any more, you will find dozens of local breweries producing truly superior beers of all descriptions. Just don't expect anything much from the industrial brewing conglomerates except lots of Superbowl ads.
John, I have a little trouble drinking Stroh's. Looked at a can in the mirror and it said I was drinking Shorts. Haven't ever gotten past that!:laugh:
