Post anniversary dinner at EPCOT's Le Cellier, still in Orlando, tithe.

American coffees: There are some micro brewers (such as Kill Devil Hills on the Outer Banks of North Carolina) that send their coffee scout to Central and South America for the best beans and use them in a variety of roasts and blends to suit different tastes. For my money and palate, they are unbeatable--unless one insists on French roasts or expressos, which honestly belong in a different class of caffine drink.

American beers: If one stays away from the big national brands, there are a number of good micro brewers in almost every city of any decent size. Two small brewers that distribute nationally are Sam Adams and Yeungling, which produce excellent lagers, IMHO. Yeungling is an amber with a much smoother taste than Dos Xs amber, IMHO. Land Shark is a good pale lager (similar to Corona) brewed in Jacksonville, Florida and distributed through Budweiser. I like it better than Corona and it's my favorite summertime beer.


I think things have changed drastically in these two areas in the last couple of decades. We have several micro brewers, and a local coffee roaster here for example that have excellent products. I think most decent sized cities do. It is possible to buy just about any type of beer of coffee I want today.

The days of Folgers/Maxwell House or, heaven forbid, Sanka only are long over if someone wants variety to choose from. Same goes for beer too.

Anyone remember the equally classless "Dead Baby" jokes of the same ilk?

I appreciate humor in all forms cept most of those in the bodily function area.

Heh... when i was in New Zealand some years ago, i was in a restaurant and asked what kinds of beer they had... the waitress offered this new American import they had, which she thought was quite exotic... called "Budweiser" (which she thought was pronounced "Bud-wheezer")...

i declined the exotic important...




You can get Bud at the local supermarket now, and waitress's are not renowned for their sophistication, even down-here where most people are smarter that average.


Well, this was 1986... it was sort of surreal visiting your country... the ONLY news we got was about the "Rebel Rugby Tour", except for one day when the US bombed Libya. Every other day the headlines involved the RRT...

When we got home, my friend searched all of his ~2 weeks of newspapers (Washington Post) and there was NO mention of the Rebel Rugby Tour then entire time.

Of course, this was pre-internet...

Oh yeah, and the postcards we mailed to friends arrived >6 months after we got back...

PS - from the amount of press coverage it got, i expect the "Rebel Rugby Tour" features a prominent place in your history books as say, the Falklands War!!


In 1986 I was in Ireland on my OE, and even-though I played Rugby at school, I never got tied-up with the national obsession for it. New Zealand at that time was a very confused and self conscious little Country. Our politicians and media announcers still spoke with put-on English-school accents, and the common man's horizon was Rugby and local Beer (because of high import-duty). But luckily enough of us Kiwi's got to travel and see a whole new world was out there, and that the Kiwi accent was OK.
