It doesn't get any better than this . . .
 
I'm sitting in the cockpit of my fine yacht on my mooring in
Florida Bay where the breeze is light and the temperature
is in the 80s. I'm eating grilled Ballpark hot dogs on deli
buns with relish and mustard, baked beans, potato chips
and washing it down with Rolling Rock beers on ice.

To make it even better, I'm using a wireless connection
to thoroughly crush Booby, Cairns, Oz and Gayboy Gaynz.

God has truly blessed me.

Ballpark hot dogs? Meat by-products? Are you sure it's God?

Overproof November 30th 04 11:37 PM

It's plus 7c here.... overcast.... I just delivered 5 project reports and
been complimented by the director on my professionalism and quality of work.
I've requested 2 weeks off ....approved... and I'm looking at a full bottle
of overproof rum and ....finally....at last... after a long absence... a big
fat blunt of BC Prime bud..... my boat is cradled safely from the
forthcoming winter storms and farm work awaits as a welcomed change from
mental to physical labour.

Yes indeed ..... life is good.

It's 38 deg C gonna be over 100F and the hot NW has just kicked in at

Capt. Neal® December 1st 04 12:29 AM

Coopers 4.5% Alc/Vol Pretty feeble.



James Squire Australian Strong Ale is a no-expense-spared beer, brewed to the glowing russet colour of autumn leaves. Crystal wheat
and several malted barleys produce deep toasted flavours with a rich toffee edge. Lifted floral hop notes of rare Australian hops
complement the profoundly malty, biscuity flavours and the apricot/fig esters created by wild ale fermentation.


Food matching suggestions:
Crowned with a rewarding dry finish, James Squire Australian Strong Ale is a powerful winter warmer. It's an ideal accompaniment to
rich meaty stews, aged cheddars, and delicious game dishes such as kangaroo or venison.

Available in 345ml bottle
6.8% ALC/VOL.


More like it!!!!
