Off topic - Happy 4th of July
 
Today we celebrate the USA's birthday. It is a day in which we honor great Americans, like George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Scooter Libby. :eek:

PS: Don't forget about Diebler!

I especially like the 5th, when you can get great bargains on absolutely everything at the "After the 4th" sales.

<font size =-2>Warts and all though, this is still a great country.</font size>

I used to like a 5th, too. But, since the industry went metric, I can only find 750ml bottles.

Understood.

But, when do you get a chance to drink them? You're in bed by 7:00 most nights...

It's 5:00 somewhere.

24 hours in a day. 24 bottles in a case. Coincidence?

No - Bob uses metric time also. 7:00 is now 9:47. :p

That's just like the old George Carlin "Hippy Dippy Weatherman" bit:
"It's 9:00 in Los Angeles."
"It's 10:00 in Denver."
"It's 11:00 in Chicago."
"In Baltimore it's 6:42 - time for the 11:00 news!"

I saw a Second City review in Vegas in which the announcer, wearing a channel 8 blazer said, "It's five o'clock - time for the six o'clock news at seven here on eight."

OK, Brandan. I emailed you. I'm not going to get a bunch of emails from some "government official" in Nigeria asking me to launder some money, am I? :eek:

BTW - haven't seen Dave in quite a while, unfortunately.
