Can;t comment on those but I'm a Carlton Cold or Hahn Ice man. Good beer for a good price
Wed Dec 03, 2003 10:44 pm
yeah i think those are pretty good for their price, but i like Heineken (haven't tried Bud yet) the best so far. Unfortunately i'll go broke before i can get pissed on Heineken
Thu Dec 04, 2003 5:13 am
Heineken.

Grants Whiskey (for my parents)
Yeah right....
I dont drink. Bad for me anyway.
Anyway, you must have plenty of money. Using it from that 'slave' labor you said you were working?
If you got any extra, you know where to send it. (to me if your not sure)
Sat Dec 06, 2003 12:10 am
lol, well i have $38 left which im gonna spend 2morrow. And i swear the whiskey was for my parents, i don't drink whiskey, i hate it. I drink Beer and Vodka........in small amounts of course
Ive found a better job, my mum hooked me up with a job as a 'caretaker' or sumthin like that for some rich folks. I have to rake their leaves on the front lawn and wash their cars........easy money, plus they pay well

Do they pay better than your old job? Because if they do you really lucked out. I wish i could rake leaves and stuff for a lot of money.

Since I'm the resident alcholic...
Bud Light: "healthier" for you, slightly smoother, and it's cheaper. If you're going to drink a lot, go for this as it's much cheaper than Heiniken.
Heiniken: not quite as smooth as Bud Light, more expensive, more of a hanging out and drinking beer than getting fucked up beer
Other Beers:
Keystone Light: (:D) the ultimate college beer; $12 for a case, watered down but still potent, incredibly smooth, and you can shotgun these like no other.
Busch Light: A more bitter version of Bud Light, but it's much cheaper. Another popular college beer
Coors Light: A more expensive, better tasting version of Keystone Light. Very smooth, goes down the best of any beer I've had
Sam Adams: Junk. Far too...something...for my taste. I hate the taste.
Guiness: I love this stuff, whether it's draft or stout. The taste is reminiscent of coffee, but it's good stuff.
Leinenkugel: The Honey Weis is good, and the normal Leiny's are pretty good, too. Not too shabby.
LaBatt Blue: Great Canadian beer. I actually had the Canadian version of it, and that stuff rules as the alcohol content is much greater than US beer. Same goes for Moosehead.
Corona Extra: This stuff is probably my favorite non-domestic beer. Drink it with or without a lime...either way it's great.
Other Alcoholic drinks:
Souther Comfort (whiskey): get the hundred proof, mix it with Cherry Coke or Cherry Pepsi and grenadine (2 shots to 12 ounce can of pop, about a shot of grenadine), and you'll have a good time.
Bacardi 151: shot or two of this with a can of pepsi, and you'll be wasted in a very short amount of time
Fun with Grain Alcohol (Everclear):
Apple Pie shots: a fifth of everclear to a gallon of apple CIDAR; boil cidar, add everclear, and drop a couple cinamon sticks in the apple cidar for flavor. Pour into shot glasses, add whipped cream to the top of the shot, and get wasted without knowing it.
Jungle Juice: 3 gallons of Tampico Fruit Punch (Minute Maid works, too, but it's more expensive), a 755 mL bottle of everclear, a bottle of Crantasia schnapps, and whatever other fruit juice and fruit you want to add...I recommend white grape juice, strawberries, lemons, and limes.
Ecto Cooler: This is a drink of my own invention. I was going to have Blue Maui (a schnapps) with Mt. Dew, but I had some Everclear in the freezer, so I decided to spice it up a bit. I put a shot and a half of everclear in a 16 ounce glass, added a shot of Blue Maui, and then a can of Mt. Dew. For those of you old enough to remember Hi-Ci's Ecto Cooler (the one with Slimer on the box), it tastes EXACTLY like that...except bubbly...and it can make your heart stop if you drink too much...
If you're all about the bargain shopping, go for the Bud Light. It's cheaper but still good. I'd also advise you to try Corona, but until you get hooked on it, get some limes, cut 'em into slivers, and put them in the bottle.
Oh, and I've spent almost 2 grand in just over a week...so HA!

That's money, second official beer of the Islands, first is Amstel ofcourse, but I prefer Corona with the lime.
Sat Dec 06, 2003 2:45 pm
Damn, Mr. Shane. No wonder why you dont post here that often. Seems you have other things to do......
Sat Dec 06, 2003 6:02 pm
Yeah, I just got back from a jungle juice party tonight...they should have had me make it (it was a friend's place)...they burned it, but it wasn't too bad. Everyone was wasted...I left because of my girlfriend. Not cause she called or cause she was there, but Heidi was getting on me hardcore and I wanted to be good (Pyscho_Jackal knows what I'm talking about....she just got her belly button pierced!;)). It's damned hard to resist temptation, hehe, so I just left. She must dig fat guys, eh?

Hmm... I don't know how's that in Perth, but here in Rybnik (Poland), if you wanna buy even an original NBA headband, u just have to go to a skateshop (it's name's "Andergrand", which is a polish-sounding version of "Underground") and u can buy it (in about 15 colorways, not only NBA, also each NBA teams, Jordan, I3, NY and much more...) and it's price is 20 zlotys, that's $5
Personally, I've got about 5 of them

Keep it up. You must be the biggest flame war initiator the NLSC has. 
Btw, whats you and judging what a person (guy) looks like...? Hope you dont fly on the other side man.
I await your pathetic response.

Yeah, three hours.
Gotta be good...spent too much money on her for Christmas to fuck this up.

Whatever she doesnt know, won't harm her. Naw, just messing man, good, being faithfull is good.

c'mon man, are you seriously saying you can't tell if a male is ugly? if the answer is no, i'd say that denying such a thing is enough reason to question your sexuality

and i'm wondering why i ever left Poland. The headbands here i think have just the NBA logo and come in 3 colours, how poor ass is that. Oh well i'll have to put up with that, unless i order off the net, but i don't know how safe that really is
anyway, i'm starting my last week of work
the new job, which will probly be a once a week thing
i'm not sure when that starts and i don't really care either cos i have money as it is now, but it will pay at the very least $10 and i'll probly work 7hrs on the weekend. I figure to work 2hrs and swim in their pool for 5hrs
on the beers though, i must say that i only like expensive beers. Cheap ones just don't taste right for me. I think i'll buy a sixer of different beers and see which is the best
Mon Dec 08, 2003 4:53 am
I could care less if OSF thinks I'm ugly....girls don't think I'm ugly, and the girls are hot, therefore I'm not concerned at all. Besides, I have a girlfriend, it's not like I'm in the market for anything.
Yeah, I like expensive beer, too, but I rarely have the money for expensive beer. I drank a lot of Miller Light last night, it's not bad, really smooth. Forgot about it because I rarely drink it. Definately try Corona, it's a great import. It's not cheap, either, and if you get the light, you're a pussy.

Do you maybe know a store in Warsawa who may sell em?
Mon Dec 08, 2003 8:57 am
I was getting a Marbury and LeBron jersey from the online nba store and figured I'd just get a white headband and a black headband too. But then my jersey's weren't available yet even though it was past the date that they said they'd be available. I didn't want to pay $15 of S&H for $16 of product. So I tried to cancel my order but they wouldn't let me and I ended up paying almost $40 (CDN $'s) for 2 f*ing headbands. :@stack42 wrote:and i'm wondering why i ever left Poland.

I suggest only getting themm online if you're also getting something else because it is far to expensive with all the S&H.
BTW, if anyone in Vancouver wants one go to the Champs at Metrotown. They have black, white, red, blue, yellow, green, light blue. Every single colour, and for $12.
