You guys aren't nearly so cynical as I am.
One can claim anything, after all.
No, now go away or I shall taunt you a second time!

My favorite is Keystone Light. 2 for $1.75 at 7-eleven.
Ah, so you're old enough to drink then. Good to know! He recently referenced remembering the start of Desert Storm 32 years ago......

On a related note, I DO want to try Yorkshire Pudding at some point while I'm still alive. Just make sure you get the beef dripping nice and hot before you chuck the batter in. (Blimey, sounds a bit rude) LOL! Thanks for the sage advice. I'm not a cook so I'm sure I'll be having Yorkshire Pudding at a restaurant.

Apparently there is zero discerning taste for good beer in the US. Not where I live, and this is pretty funny, where I live is old, conservative, and white. Gun/Truck/Beard town for sure. And I can't count how many times I've got into conversations about various craft beers while buying beer here... Yet it's also simultaneously old, conservative, white towns all over America that are responsible for something like Bud Light being the #1 seller in America - go figure... California conservatives are just ahead of the rest of the country when it comes to beer lol!

What sort of barbarian doesn't put gravy on their chips? Aah memories, standing in a freezing cold warehouse for a mid winter car auction sometime in the 1970's, tray of chips and gravy in hand. Hoping to spend rather less than £100 on a car to last the next few months.

There was only 16 squadrons of RAF fighters that used 100 octane during the BoB. The Fw190A could not fly with the outer cannon removed. There was no Fw190A-8s flying with the JGs in 1945.
