Yup, in bavaria (which is not Germany anyomore, if you listen to bavarians) they are allowed to drink beer, but it's not the case everywhere in bavaria, they are slightly trying to throw that away.

Anyways, having a good ol "Feierabendbier" is still one of the best beers Smile | :)

I've been drinking tea for the last three years.
It's not that I really enjoy tea, but it's better than plain water, healthier than soda, and it's all we get at work, water, coffee or tea.
Before that I drank 0 caffeine and that's what I still drink when I'm not at work Smile | :)

But tea IS caffeine! Or is it herbal-tea?

I think the tea has some caffeine, but not all tea.
So I now drink very small amounts of caffeine.
I prefer to keep it that way.
I don't like being addicted to anything, not even when the rest of humanity is also addicted and it's totally acceptable.

Only true tea has caffeine - the average is 26 mg for a bag...
If you drink herbal tea - like me - you drink no caffeine!

Seems like an addiction to being not addicted to anything.

Yes, and unfortunately I live in the state that voted for him and just reelected Cornyn. Though there are so many great things about Texas, I used to think it outweighed a lot of the politics.

It always amazes me regarding the elitist attitudes shown by really smart technical people.... who then proceed to piss all over someone who has an opinion different than their own. You have to put things in context people.

We've just have 6 years of lies and deceit. I'm not going to get into the politics of the last 6 years, but a goodly number of Americans don't trust their government. For Obama to suddenly get involved does one of two things: (1) alarm bells or (2) oh $hit! There's always a reason for what he does. Always. There have already been calls from one side of the FCC to regulate all these "non news news sites."

Over the past 50 years or so, Congress has ceded more and more of it's authority to the executive branch - both parties have done this. Now, we have an Executive branch that rules by regulation. I cite one potential example below. So, color me distrustful.

Now, if there were a bunch of Andy's and the like, who were TECHNICALLY driven and not ideologues, well, then knock yourself out.

6 years? Try 238. Earlier than that, we'll have to explore the distrust of the population in England, and that goes back a lot more.
