I'm into the Mexican beers, they're low cal, low alcohol, or so I want to believe, and they're tasty. I really do hate light beer and American beer. They're OK if you can get used to them, but as soon as you have a good beer, they taste like water.
I like Pilsner urquell, didn't know it was so healthy, I should check out that site.

Keanu Reeves is known for saying "whoa".

Keanu Reeves said "whoa" in the matrix.

Keanu Reeves is also known for the line, "I know kung fu", having had it instantly downloaded into his character's skull.

Damn! I never have noticed that there is an arrow there. It took me a good 10 seconds of examining the logo to figure out where the arrow was.

TosTITos is really gonna freak you out!

This thread sucks. I didn't learn a single thing yesterday and I can't remember any of the cool things I've learned in the past.

Speaking of subliminal clips....The Exorcist....



I was freaked out (whoa) when I saw Pazuzu the first time. There are three clips in that movie.

I guess, some are, some are not. Time to do some market research in Calgary.

It's not likely to be true (though I don't 100% know, and there may be some that actually do) but consider that if the poles free-spun, instead of the dancer using muscle power to spin, whenever a dancer was on the pole, it would do nothing but spin (due to the weight shifts of the dancer on it).

So...likely not true.

I read the reddit thread that was from.

It appears it is mostly not true but some expert pole dancers do use spinnable poles for the more elaborate moves.

I recommend you try Tusker from Kenya. Coop Liquor carries it.

I have a real sensitivity to wheat. Not gluten (so soy sauce is ok). Guinness, bud, and sapporo treat me the best. Doesn't matter when having just a pint, but on a long day when "who's counting", then yes. It makes a difference.

I just learned D'yer Mak'er isn't pronounced Dire Maker. I always wondered about why a song that was so reggae'ish and up beat had that ominous title. Silly Brits and their wonky accents.
