Threat of annihilation from faked nuclear warheads kept people in line for 74 years.
They’re gonna have to come up with something better than Yellowstone.
Yup! The new trend is to live your life in fear. If they manage to convince enough of the people to do that they will run and hide in their hole. Now to the beer thing. I would prefer a good sour mash or single malt. But when all else fails, I’ll have a beer with yah-all. Bottoms up!
Cringeworthy stupidity yet again. If you haven’t seen the caldera at Yellowstone it is a little hard to comprehend that the massive “hole” some 20 miles by 40 miles was ejected into the atmosphere at supersonic speed….not once but at least three times.
There are boiling pools of bacteria-laden water that kill a couple of people and bison, elk, etc. every year. The asphalt on the roads in Yellowstone periodically melt…….all from the not one but two massive lava chambers underneath the area……..I live about 100 miles due north of the park boundary…..and will be killed if the shit blows…..can’t really worry about it, not much we can do.
There is currently a geyser that has set a new record for the number of eruptions…….a geyser is a steam vent with a rock trapped in it….pressure builds up pushes the rock and it erupts…..rock falls back down pressure builds up rinse and repeat until the rock is worn away. So for some reason, extra pressure is building up in the Steamboat geyser……doesn’t mean a mega eruption is imminent but it says the lava is on the move.
Yes at some point Yellowstone is going to blow and while it could 5 mins from now or 500 years or 5000 years from now…..we don’t really think about it. Nobody is worried about it….worry about grizzly bears and moose!
24 hours in a day.
24 cans of beer in a party case.
Coincidence? I think not.
But, at those times when it just doesn’t do it, and you’re still thirsty,
There’s always lemonade.
Mike’s Hard Lemonade.
Stay thirsty, my friends.
… or, if you like, a German-styled Radler, AKA a shandy.
It can be up to 50% lemonade and 50% beer, but I prefer more beer than lemonade.
The original mix was said to be a mix of beer and lemon soda, but that’s an abomination.
Add some additional lemon and lime juice plus rum or vodka to a standard Mike’s and it becomes something really special. Of course at that point you’ve pretty much made you own drink.
At that point you’ve pretty much dug your own grave.
“Two beers or not two beers. What was the question?”
Billy Bob Shakesbeer
Love it!
There’s not enough hours in a day to drink all the beer I’d like to drink.
Beer goes with everything and even lightens doom and gloom, so do not deny yourself, it’s a gift.
Beer, for me, is an obsession and a hobby that is akin to a spiritual pursuit. If I’m not grabbing a 12-pack of Founders Solid Gold lager from the store during the warmer times of year, I brew my own during the fall and winter months or fall back to grabbing a bock, porter, or stout from Sam Adams, Founders, and Yards Brewing in PA.
In my house it’s usually the lighter beers or German/Belgian styles brewed with wheat, three to five gallons at a time, done in the kitchen. The kitchen is small and competing for space can be a pain, so brewdays usually happen when everyone BUT ME is away from home.
Unless you’re strange, nothing smells better than freshly mashed sweet wort tea cooking on the stove with hops, because in time, you know it’s going to be BEER!
Being of German descent we usually just call it – flüssiges Brot, which means liquid bread.
And none of this Light/Lite beer shit either – pisse Wasser
Fellow homebrewer here. Working on my keezer right now, I will have space for 3 Cornys. Life is good!
None for me. I done drank my share before I turned 25.
“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”
Ben Franklin, I think…
Yes, Franklin.
FYI, did you know Luther wrote “A mighty fortress is our God” to the tune of a German beer drinking song?
Fill with mingled cream and amber,
I will drain that glass again.
Such hilarious visions clamber
Through the chamber of my brain –
Quaintest thoughts–queerist fancies
Come to life and fade away;
What care I how time advances?
I am drinking ale today.
~ Edgar Allan Poe
You don’t buy beer.
You rent it.
And at some of the mega breweries, it tastes like the rental returns are the raw material for their new product.
I’ll drink to that!
Off the subject, but who the hell would ever pull for the US “women’s” soccer team? The militant lesbians haven’t even won the finals and they tell us they do not want to go to the white house.
These DYKES are supposed to be representing the USA – which is at least 97% hetero! and what a stupid distraction they created for the team and any normal hetero women that may be on the team.
Brazen, left wing agitation at its finest.
Then they insulted England with the tea cup jesture after defeating them – a rank amateur and classless move.
These dysfunctional people are assholes.
I am so tired o hearing some of these comments from environmental whacko, pajama boys in their mother’s basement.
These “scientists’ have absolutely no credibility after all the other junk science they have proffered.
Just another gloom and doom p.o.s.; “worst one ever”, “super volcano”, “40,000 years late”, 40,000 Xbigger than Mt. St. Helens. Bullshit….
These idiots are descendents for the 1970’s morons that said we would all be frozen by 1980! “Global cooling, another ice age”. Will we ever learn?!
STFU pajama boy ‘scientist’!
I went fishing off shore twice this week and never drank a beer. And I prefer the 8 ounce cans as I have difficulty drinking a 12er. Unless my company is unusually good and the place just right.
And seldom resist repeating the story of how I first said “I usually don’t drink beer, but when I do, I prefer Dos Equis”. And added my drinking philosophy, to the former post office, personal security guy; “stay thirsty”. Back in 2004-05.
And also post a YT viddy about Andy Dufresne and beer. What some men will do for Icy Cold Bohemian Style Beer. Interesting Andy does not even drink one.
