I thought that was bacon

Edit: or was it Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft Group?

Wayyy to nitpicky on my part: the "Group" there is unnecessary. The "G" in VAG is Gesellschaft, not group. Aktiengesellschaft means "shares group", i.e. a corporation.

Ha! I hear ya. Found a vintage candy store here that sells all the classics. Abbas are$1.25 so its close in price. Gonna have a couple PBRs to close the night.

Yeah, she already was pissed about a beer purchase I made earlier this week. She said something about a beer budget and me not listening...I don't know, I wasn't paying attention. ;) I have to play it cool for at least a week, which will be difficult with the arrival of Prairie Coffee Noir and Vanilla Noir in a few days. I'm screwed no matter what.

Off topic, but who else remembers the wax thumbs that were filled with some sort of oozy liquid candy? Also, when pay days had a coin in them? Man, those were the days!

I remember wax bottles with that stuff in them. I remember them as delicious. Something tells me my 'adult' self would disagree.
 
No thumbs but I remember little wax bottles like that.

Also, candy buttons stuck to rolled up wax paper. And candy cigarettes and cigars.

I think there's still an old candy store in my town that has all that "penny candy" type sh!t.

i loved those things.

the thing that amazed me is the 'marketing material' for the cigarettes

Bubble Gum Cigarettes - a fun, novelty chewing gum from back in the day! Each Bubble Gum Cigarette pack has 8 oink bubble gum sticks covered in a paper wrapper and they still blow fake smoke!

bolding was mine - it was powdered sugar that you blew thru the bubble gum to get a 'puff of smoke'...

oh, and to stay on topic and in case anyone cares - another hoppy mess ipa - i dont think ill be very productive t work on Thursday...

Nothing like kids puffing powdered sugar "smoke" from a bubble gum cigarette. :D
What about the children! The children! I don't know about anyone else, but I had those things and I grew up to be a normal member of society. I don't even smoke! Imagine that!
 
I won't be firing on all cylinders, but I do have to work tomorrow. Last sip of the BBA DIPA and my drinking buddy is passed out. ImageUploadedByHome Brew1392878643.259416.jpg
I guess it's time to hit the hay.
