Wives are great for pointing out all sorts of things about yourself that you weren’t aware of. In fact, after all these years, she’s good to point out new stuff all the time. One of her favorites is that fact that I never bend over!
“You never bend over to look!” OK, Ok, there have been a FEW instances when bending over might have benefitted me, like the time last week I was trying to find the pizza that got shoved in the refrigerator somewhere behind the milk. Generally speaking however, as a middle-aged dude, there RARELY is much benefit from bending over, for a variety of reasons, refrigerator or otherwise!
Not bending over can have some positive and negative consequences when we are talking the expansive and temperature-controlled Beermeister32 Bierhoard. Not bending over there means I truly can miss out on some spectacular brews. Actually BENDING OVER can also benefit me greatly – such as today when I discovered that there was ONE Sierra Nevada IPA left over from my combination box from last week!
So the jury is still out on bending over. Treacherous spinal dangers aside - and not factoring in the actual shame, humiliation and true indignity of being seen in the derriere-prone positon, you can find some pretty great beers if you look!
