I Thought Beer Was for the Horses And the Men Get Whiskey...

But this is pretty awesome. I was thinking "hey, wouldn't it be nice if someone started a website through which an appreciative US (or French, cough, WWII) citizen could buy a soldier a beer.

Well, of course it already exists, and now it's going on my page for the duration of our wars. So, uh, forever.

And here's the song to which I alluded in the title. It's one of Toby Keith's best. His official video version is terrible, so we'll see how long this one stays up -

18 - 1

Aaaah, this is just great. Busted Tees has done it again -

18-1

Bill Simmons has written a fantastic piece about Super Bowl XLII. It is undoubtedly more interesting than an article about a Patriots' win would have been.

This is the last item on Simmons' "I will forever remember eight things about Super Bowl XLII"-

"Finally, can you guess the last thing we heard as we were walking (OK, hustling) out of the stadium right after the final play? That's right, it was the sound of euphoric Giants fans chanting, 'Eighteen and one! Eighteen and one! Eighteen and one!' Yes, it's safe to say the Boston-New York rivalry has been taken to new heights. As a tennis umpire would say, 'Advantage, New York.'"

It's a funny chant, but I'm disappointed to say that New York is now Boston and Boston is New York. That is exactly the kind of "Yankees Suck" cheer you'd here from bitter Boston fans of not too long ago.

18 and 1!
