From: Jim Dixon Well, a lot of us would like to change it back to Pig's Eye, in honor of Pierre "Pig's Eye" Parrant, the French-Canadian trader who was probably the first non-Indian to live in the area, but for now we'll have to be satisfied with Pig's Eye Beer. |

Of course, this is still Minnesota, so it doesn't sound near as sexy as LAX. But at least we're nerdy enough to be able to admit to the code making us feel cutting edge. We've decided we'll have to clean house for the convention, so we can board protestors, while we run for the border. |
