two weeks ago one of my cohorts in crime was talking about beer and how much he enjoys the "lite" versions. of course i told him that's not beer but nothing more than colored water with bad flavoring added. then i ask him what the point was of drinking such liquids.

i then turned him on to a Black & Tan, using my favorite, Bass-n-Guinness. i explained the process of creating a B & T. he enjoyed that, and said it was good. but i told him that he was only getting half the goodness of a real beer. so i talked him into a solo Guinness.

several days later he told me that 'damn, that Guinness was strong stuff and would put hair on his b@!!'s. and i told him, nah, that's just you learning how to be a man.

'course, ya gotta understand, where i live, and if you mention Guinness, the first question asked is "what kinda chicken is that".
