Subject: RE: BS: What do you miss from the old country?
Whaddya mean about American Beer!!!??? Haven't you yayhoos ever had "curs" brewed with pure Rocky Mountian Spring Water, after it's been processed through a cowpoke's bronc? THAT is what ALL beer tastes like to me! And, I honestly had an oilfield worker come into where I was bartending, one night, and ask me for a "curs". Even though I am from here, it took me a minute to realise he was asking for "Coors".

I didn't miss food. When I left the West for the first time, for wonderful New England, I was misreably homesick for the sagebrush and meadowlarks. Now that I am back, I miss the dogwoods, magnolias, ocean (same wide-open feeling the prairie gives me, except I can't walk on it!), cardinals, and old buildings.
