You’ve got to be careful; it’s on the menu at pubs as well. Stick to pilsners and you’ll be okay. Although now I have an idea for what someone can ‘make’ you for Christmas; one sixer of Bud + one sixer of Coca-Cola = Frohe Weihnachten!

What was the beer called. 1. So I can avoid the tangy beer cola taste and 2. because I can’t make it out but from the picture it looks like it says Cool A—.which may explain the taste.

I can’t get over how massively tall they are. The pictures don’t do justice.

Yeah, there’s a small wind farm out here in Bowling Green. Four similar windmills out in the western part of town, and when you get out that way, because it’s so flat, you can see them for miles… And they look amazing, like you said, just slowly turning…

Weeks: I knew people wouldn’t understand about me and cream cheese sauce.

Mom: I have to try EVERYTHING to fit in.

Weeks: Veterans Day was, um, well… frankly it was hardly noticeable here.

John: Yeah, we saw ‘The Gates’ in New York a few years ago. I agree, the windmills are very similar in scale. Glad you like the pics! I hope to have more soon, but I’ve left the USB cord in Ruschberg, so none until tomorrow.

Hey — those are some great photos. I really liked the set from the stadium ruins.

By the way — good call on the windfarm. Those protesters are way off base. If one didn’t know better, those windmills could just as easily be a gigantic artistic venture, like those big gates that you visited (was that in New York? I don’t remember).

On a different note, how was it being in Germany during Veteran’s Day?

Anybody who drinks A bottle of beer mixed with soda deserves to taste something icky. You know son – you don’t have to try everything.

Hey hey hey… We don’t need all the sordid details of you and the cream cheese sauce… Let’s try to keep it clean, Myler.
