Mr.Johnson, Mr.Goodall, please subdue Mr.Anderson. He's clearly askew. If
necessary, use the taser. Then, I think, an extensive program of
rehabilitative therapy on Baffin Island. His obvious
paranoid delusions about the Peace Loving, Harmless, Hockey-Playing
Canadians (who actually know what a butter tart is and drink ice wine and
strong beer) suggest he needs a "Rest".

strong beer! don't make me laugh. perhaps compared to that yellow fizzy pop
the americans drink, but to a european your boast is laughable! honestly,
though, i heard a theory that american beer is the way it is so as to be like
coke, so that young people can easily get into it.

Yes that yellow fizzy stuff is terrible. BUT, there are a lot of fantastic
American beers that don't come from the big makers of the fizzy stuff. If you
every get out to Califonia, I'll show some of the local microbrewers. There is
good stuff in the old USA, you just don't see it advertised on the telly.

Finaly Some Sense Coming From Some of you Guys (and Gals(MUST BE POLTICAL

To bring this back on topic A while ago I made some ships based very losely on
Canadas "Navy". They were made with the Ship Builder. I promise this will turn
out better than my Screw up with Fighters. I might even try to clear some of
the confusion about them up after Exams. The Ships will be online... NOW! I
made them along time ago. I
do not know why. This is a desprate attempt to bring this On-topic.

I agree, I was amazed when in North Carolina I was taken to an English Pub,
with killer ale (3 pints and you're quite intoxicated) and bad british food
like toad in the hole (batter pudding containing sausages).

In Colorado the place is awash with micro-brewery beer which
kicks the ass of the usual brewery pump stuff in the UK and several of out
real ales. I've even seen real US beers infiltrate here such as Petes Wicked
Ale and Adam Smith (the one from Boston) although the more commercial end they
are not bad.

Its nice to have the US imitate the UK if only in a small way (the converse
nearly always being true like the great McInvasion).

Beer is always on topic with GZG gamers.

That's it! I am now forced to design an internal NAC civil war (mini-
revolution?) scenario in which the Canadians decide to try and take over the
NAC. Ideas for ICWs (Insidious Canuck Weaponry) solicited.

The Beer Battery will obviously be one of the ICWs.

That's it! I am now forced to design an internal NAC civil war (mini-
revolution?) scenario in which the Canadians decide to try and take over the
NAC. Ideas for ICWs (Insidious Canuck Weaponry) solicited.

The Most Insidious Canuck Weaponry is, quite clearly, Canadian women. They are
even now gaining control over significant portions of the US economy (such as
my entire disposable net income). Fortunately, mine is cute enough
that I don't mind--which is of course a measure of how insidious this
plot is. (If I were really wicked, I would idly wonder why they all seem to be
moving south, ie do Canadian men not measure up? But I will forego any such
comment, so as not to get an Truly Off Topic thread going, and I assume that
everyone will co-operate in ignoring this thread even before it gets
going). (And besides, the answer is obvious).
