Quote of the Weekend:
“A fine beer may be judged with only one sip, but its better to be thoroughly sure.” –Czech proverb
- What aspect of American culture could you least live without–Professional and NCAA spectator sports, the Internet, Up to the minute news, movies and tv entertainment (includes internet watching), something else?
- What is the best beer drinkin song you know, or at least the best you can think of right now, or hell, a whole beer drinkin playlist if you got one?
- Who’s the coolest movie star, dead and alive?
- What one band or performer would you most like to have seen live in their prime?
- Redd Foxx in the 60’s, Richard Prior in the 70’s, Eddie Murphy in the 80’s, Chris Rock in the 90’s or Dave Chappell in the 00’s?
- Got anybody you wanna dedicate this song to?

1. internet
2. I asked a pretty broad question. There are so many different kinds of beer drinkin scenarios. For the best bars and dives and for singin on picnic tables at the Flora-bama or dancin in the sand I’m gonna go with “Keep Your Hands To Yourself”, Georgia Satellites (this subject may necessitate further philosobaenizing some cool sunny afternoon this fall)
3. Bogey (almost all the dudes picked so far are blank stare legends btw)
4. I’m tempted to say the late era Beatles, but that’s a lot of squealin girls, and Elvis is out for that reason too. I think I’d have dug seein Waylon in some Texas bar around 1976.
5. Eddie Murphy
6. nope, not right now, but I heard it for the first time in awhile Friday afternoon on XM and I think surlybaen had a few folks in mind at the time.

I saw Waylon in a texas bar. It was in the 90’s. But cool as hell. He told Travis Tritt to kick Billy Ray Cyrus’ ass. He meant it too.
