Nope it was the X-15. Trivia from 20 years ago I remember. What my wife asked me to do today I forgot.






All I remember was that phase 3 was to "Eat a milkbone in a commie free world"

"The X-15 Stealth (Cruise?) Basselope:Phase One: Cross into enemy territory virtually invisible to all hostile Soviet detection.Phase Two: Melt invisibly into modern Russian social scene.Phase Three: Distribute secret payload of Mickey Mouse caps, tickets to 'The Dating Game', Sharper Image catalogs, Haagen-Daas bars and colored Calvin Klein fashion briefs to unsuspecting Marxists.Phase Four: Sit back and watch Capitalism blossom faster than you can say 'Ivana Trump'."

Come now...PBR is a quality beer.....if you compare it to Old Milwuakee, Iron City, or Schlitz.

As for Guiness I am reminded of John Cleese's description of British beer as "Warm sticky stuff containing various forms of pond life"




I couldn't agree more. Plus, after the first 8 or 10, PBR doesn't taste too bad.

Mynok's Mantras:

1. Stout is not beer. It's good, but it's not beer.
2. If it isn't bitter, it isn't beer.
3. PBR isn't beer, it's horse piss.
4. What goes in must come out....up or down. PBR likes to go up.

ONE (and only one) problem with PBR (as well as other US low-end beers) is that to try to increase the ethanol content in a small amount of time, they put sugar into the brew. This does have the desired effect, but the brewer doesn't have the patience (or probably more likely he/she has the desire to turn a larger profit in a shorter periord of time) to let all the sugar ferment. Thus - the end product is relatively weak (as far as ethanol content) and distinctly SWEET (bleh). Plus they dump all kinds of other chemicals in to try to do various things. The end product is PBR.

Now personally, i don't drink anything stronger than Pop - but Pop drinks just about anything! (EXCEPT PBR)...

Niceguy's Mantras - Based on real life experience
1. Stout isn't beer, it's motor oil sold at a premium
2. GOOD beer isn't bitter, it's smoooooth, rich, with a robust flavor....aaarrrrggghhhhh *slobber, drool*....beer.
3. PBR isn't beer; it's a beverage for getting college girls drunk
4. Life is too short for bad beer, unless that's all that's handy, then it's ok.

EDIT: Kids, it's not ok to take advantage of them when they are drunk though!

I would refer you to this notice from the legal department of Niceguy Inc.

"Nicegy2005, Inc. its subsidaries and all it's forms and holdings hereby states that it does not support, promote, endorse or otherwise encourage in any shape or form the consumption, sale or disstribution of alcoholic bevarages.

All of which nicely fails to answer the question.
