Another Great Reason to Visit Amsterdam ...

Dutch women's breasts are getting bigger!

That's right, read all about it here.

Wonder if there is a connection between this and the earlier discussion about the Red Light District.

And then there are the American women.

Was it like this?

Einfahrt, I remember you once told me that you were caught by the Police and you were asked to "walk the line". I never heard the result, please tell was it like this? http://my.break.com/media/view.aspx?ContentID=186637

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good beer!

Recruiting Trip


Chugger,

Please withdraw funds from the petty cash drawer, buy a plane ticket and a six pack and fly to St. Louis. I think I found a candidate to be the token female on the trip....she sounds like our kind of gal.

Training


Much has been written in this blog about our successes, but little attention has been given to the training involved to acheive this success. Therefore, this post is set to remind folks that the Oktoberfest trip is serious business. I mean it! Extensive training has to begin in order to survive our 4 days in Munchen. Sipping on Miller lite does not prepare oneself for the onslaught of hoppy goodness you will receive in the Fatherland.

In that light, Private Hops and I sampled some good brew at a local microbrewery today. It was Lightning Brewery Smoked Porter. YUM!!! I expect to see similar posts from our participants; please show evidence of your preparation steps. This will help the novitiates in their journey to Munich.

What's wrong with Santa's Butt?


It has been learned that the state of Maine, once a defender of the Constitution, is now banning Santa's Butt as it was deemed that it may be "Appealling to children". That's just sick. Who would ever think Santa's butt would appeal to children?

Are the Maine authorities so hung up on fear of prurient interest generation, that they have banned Santa's Butt? Thankfully, the Maine Civil Liberties Union is taking up the cause to protect our freedoms.

Nice in November



Last weekend was a great experience to be with a major part of the Oktober festians in Nice - Cote d'Azur. Einfahrt, Jane, Jack, Schlumberger Lady, Barbus, Candy and of course the aspirant member young lady M. enjoyed five wonderfull days. Food, drinks (champaign & wine) were superb. So were the wheather, views etc.
