Who Would You Most Like to Have a Beer With?

[sudsmonkey]

Thanks, man. He doesn't know where he is, but he thinks I run Timewarner Cable. I'm sure he's very proud. It's cool that he doesn't know he's like that.

First good beer drinking experience I had was with him. We drove home from the Outer Banks once when I was about 15. He stopped at a store on the edge of the Dare county Wilderness and bought a six-pack and some Cheeto's . I was proud as hell ! Drinking beer with the man !
We stopped and peed off a bridge. High point of my drinking career , to that point. Never forget it.

Damn man, you about got me crying.

whew, no kidding. I think I got some dust in my eye on that one.

Turning water into beer... Doesn't everyone do that ?


Whoever mentioned having a beer with their senile mother.... My Dad is a vegetable now from a series of strokes. He got progressively worse over the last couple of years. I spent the summer before last working a job in the town near him and stayed at his house during the week. He was starting to slip then. I'd get up in the morning and make him breakfast, then return in the evening and start dinner. I'd be working on my nightly beer treatment, and sometimes he'de ask me for one. Some nights, he'd ask for another and another, On those nights, after he'd had 2 or 3, he'd clear up. " Do you remember when you were little and you picked the sea oats at the beach and we hauled ass because we thought the Ranger saw you ? ". Things like that would start coming out, and it was like having him back again. Alcohol is a wonderous thing, boys and girls!

He's gone to a place where even my 8% Amber Ale can't reach him.
If I could brew one strong enough, I'd drink the whole batch with him just to hear one more story of me peeing down the stairs when I was two, or another Korean War story.

Mark Twain would be cool as a second choice, but not the same.

Thank you for sharing that. I'll have to send that one to my old man, he lives far enuf away for us to get together often and I'd like to be able to spend more time before the years get away.

Time can be the enemy boys and girls....

Tell her it would make me and my Dad feel better if you did.

 

[The Happy Mug]

Suds, that was really an inspiring story. Thank you very much for sharing it, because I really enjoyed it. I think I'm going to spend some time with the Dad in the near future.

 

[S.T. Out]

Here is my list....

1. William Wallace (guess I'd need to speak Gaelic though)

2. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (one of the best writers ever)

3. Patrick Henry (intense patriot)

4. Captain Blackbeard aka Edward Teach (what a character!)

5. Jack Bauer (might be kinda dangerous to hang with him though)

8. George Clooney (the only realistic one on this list, I'm sure having a few beers with him would be entertaining as well as interesting)

 

[Dude]

I wonder what kind of beer God would want?

Lake Walk Pale Ale. He told me.

Mine, the Dude, of course. Maybe we could smoke a J together too. Maybe even rewrite the Port Huron Statement while we're at it.

 

[Walker]

can I change my answer? I want to have a beer with the chick on the left in Dude's avatar.

Wouldn't it be F'd up if she was tubgirl?

Nope. (but I KNOW you are going to google it now)

 

[Walker]

Nope. (but I KNOW you are going to google it now)

I'm resisting the urge well enough.

However, here's a few things to plant in YOUR head.

Donkey Punch
Morccan Meatball
Pasadena Mudslide

PS: I don't know what these are either, but I heard them in a song, and (like the title of the song says) "You Don't Want To Know".

 

[Ize]

Nope. (but I KNOW you are going to google it now)

I'm never going to forgive you for that.

And just save your eyesight and your sanity... DON'T....

 

[Walker]

ok, that's all I needed to hear. I was considering google for a second, but now I'm not.

[Jim Karr]

Guys....my list has been floating around in my mind for years. I always wanted to go out drinking with Matt Groening (the Simpsons creator), Gary Larson, and Robin Williams.

Do ya think there'd be any laughs?

 

[todd_k]

Tubgirl - All I have to say is f'n disgusting.....

Pasadena mudslide is pretty funny. urbandictionary.com is good for a lot of these terms.

EDIT: I recommend Hot Bomber and Shabbatical

Not to derail my own thread, but my personal favorite is "blump".

Resisting the urge... still trying to recover my eyesight....

[Bernie Brewer]

I had to google this "tubgirl" to understand the fuss.......oh, man........ I'm gonna get you people back if it's the last thing I do-ewwww

Oh, there's no image associated with "blump", AFAIK. Just look up the definition on Wikipedia or Urbandicionary. It's along the lines of "Cincinatti Bowtie", "Rusty Trombone", et. al.

 

[MrBulldogg]

I'd go with Dave Barry. Not only is he a proven beer philosopher (see the book "The Greatest Invention in the History of Mankind is Beer") but I imagine he'd have quite a few war stories to tell from his 20+ years as a humor columnist blowing stuff up and doing generally crazy s**t for a living. Sure, it may not be up to the level of Ghandi or Thomas Jefferson but in terms of plain ol' fun I'm sure it'd be a blast.

 

[Ivan Lendl]

I'd go with Dave Barry. Ghandi or Thomas Jefferson

D. Barry was on the stephen king AE biography. They play in a band together!

im with you on this one, what the hell am i gonna say to Ghandi? (like a sandwhich?)

or Thomas Jefferson? (so...hows that whole slave ownership treating you?)

i think it would be cool to have Woody allen, Nietsche, and Jesus all at the same table...

I think Nietsche would be depressing at the table ... Extended drunken ramblings about superhumans, anyone?

 

[Baron von BeeGee]

This week I'm going with NC State head basketball coach John Calipari.

 

[Brewpastor]

I just had beers with Tony Hillerman at my father-in-law's. He is a mystery writer from around here and is one fascinating man.

 

[MrBulldogg]

I was thiiis close to Googling 'tubgirl' on my work computer, but wisely decided not to. Unfortunately, I wasn't as wise when I fired up my own computer. Holy heck Dude ... That was the worst thing I have seen in my life. Congrats on scarring my soul for life. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go drink about a gallon of beer to get that image out of my mind...

See, every cloud has a silver lining.
