Son-of-a-Weizen

What? The New Yorker lied? See, I start subscribing to C. Albertson's favorite mag and immediately get burned!

Guess someone didn't get the waste not/want not "there are starving kids in East Pakistan" lecture as a kid?

Yep, so they say. "The most popular album of all time is the Eagles' "Greatest Hits, 1971-1975," which has sold about twenty-nine million copies in the United States since it's release, in 1976. The No. 2 album is Jackson's "Thriller," which has sold twenty-seven million copies since 1982. Next on the list are albums by Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, AC/DC, and Billy Joel."

Flipped though one of the July issues of the New Yorker today and the #1 all time selling Rock/Pop album is ___________________________. Don't Google.......don't grab the New Yorker and peek.........just take a stab at it.

That's correct.....it would typically be paired (here) with a 'Kristall' rather than a Hefe. I've seen a few do that over there as well in the Black Forest. Hey, a lemon slice is one thing....but blending a Weizen with coca-cola? Now that, I just can't fathom!! There outta be a law!

Bartenders are doing that in Michigan? With what beers? everything? That's not a good thing. Periodically (5% of the time) I'll do the lime wedge in the Pacifico cerveza thing as well as a lemon wedge in a hefe-weizen. I have to admit, the mexican beers are pretty good on the golf course.....I usually squeeze 3 Modelo bottles (short & stout shape takes up less space) and 6 Bitburger pint cans into the cooler bag for a round on a hot day. Hmmm, now why did I hook that 5-iron into the parking lot on the last hole a few weeks ago and drill that Lexus smack dab in the ctr of the hood?? I'm with ya on the fruity flavored beer....

One thing's for sure -- the last thing on that guy's mind is a whoppin' cd sale over at Concord!!

What do you think will happen first? 1. I find that cd.... 2. All the top Champagne houses in France switch to screw tops.

So now that the mad rush is (or close to...) over, when does the real fun start with open speculation about order fill rates and % of jewel boxes that'll get trashed? For $3 a disc, I can't imagine that they'll be using white gloves and laying down lush carpets of bubble wrap while processing these cartons that'll be shipped free of charge. I'll start: 80% total fill rate 15.5% cracked cases

Good luck with that one! (we'll save you a place in the dog house, too. just don't forget to bring the beer!) She said 'at that price' I should go back for another round -- and who am I not to follow orders? Scout's honor! All she gets is 2 more Creedence discs out of the deal. We have room for you on the basement sofabed if you get bounced out!

Looking to buy a copy of 'West Coast Live, Vol. 2' Pacific Jazz (TOCJ-6092) in excellent condition. Please PM if you happen to have one for sale or know where I might find a copy online. Thanks.

Same here... ..............well, on 4 of the 5 orders anyway.

Ay, caramba!!! You've gotta get away from those University garden parties, babe, and start hangin' with the proletariat in the beer halls like I do!

Stralsund? Damit!! Why couldn't I be part of that security detachment??? I've got the shades, the guns and the correct beer stein to help blend right in! .......plus, I can spot any would be assailant in disguise who's lying in wait behind a bush 200 metres away!!!

Too bad Jim A didn't have a couple of days advance notice or he might have added 'Concord' to the CD Universe/Amazon search engine/button above -- he could run the board for five years and have a wee bit left over for construction of a little basement 'recreation' room (fully stocked).

I believe both are regular issues. Rats! I was hoping the Evans was the K2.

I ordered the Honi Gordon, along with 89 other Limiteds and K2s. Ugh. I think I'm a little sick to my stomach. The world is a bittersweet place for compulsive people. Woa! Now that's some serious damage there! Give that man a medal!!

I'm going to run with "yes, I did buy those 50 cds but I wasn't just thinking about myself....I was thinking about you too hon and got you those 3 Creedence cds that were on sale!'" and then see what happens!

Chris, I read Scott Dolan's July 2nd travelogue over there. How come you weren't on his 'get together with..' list?

I agree. Instead of going to penalty kicks they should switch to overtime 'sudden death' like they do in hockey.

Milt Jackson 'Just The Way It had To Be' (Impulse) at the Manne-Hole w/Ray Brown, Teddy Edwards, Monty Alexander & Dick Berk.

still patiently waiting.
