a forum lounge with a unifying beverage...hmmm. I don't think the Box Denizens could come to an agreement on a beverage that represents The Box. Type of beverage? Absolutely. This is a beer joint, pretty plainly and simply. I'm in the minority on that as a vodka guy, but no matter. The question is which beer...and I severely doubt that just one would do the job here.

I'm personally a beer guy, but the Lounge has gotten me to enjoy WR.

(Still, don't tell the DL folks I'd choose a good beer over WR most days of the week. Otherwise I might not be welcome back in the DL Lounge).

I guess it is half the Life, the Universe and Everything. :)

Stay away from the gas station champagne. I hear it's nasty.

Missed movie reference. BTW, on that note, who that did not see it are planning on seeing My Blue Heaven?

I guess I break the mold a bit as well. While I do like beer, I definitely consider myself to be a wine guy.

Probably better than that from the auto parts store.

For reasons past my understanding, I can't get into drinking wine despite that I have spent money to read about it. The family history of the Mondavis is so well-written that you would think it's fiction. Definitely a good pickup for you, sdm1130, if you haven't already.

ETA: Link on Barnes & Noble - my review is the third one down under Customer Reviews.

Pixel is, I guess.

Conan's first show tonight... I wonder if he'll be as good as Leno?

Did you get the one ticket made available to the general public?

I don't know about that. At pre-game a total of 5 beers seem to have been consumed vs. several bottles of wine in a very short period of time.

Interesting run across the country.

I already know the answer to that question. It is why I'm on FT at this hour.

monitor was there. His presence alone changes the beverages that people choose to deploy. Your house is an unfair data point, given that regulars from this thread crossed an ocean solely for beer earlier this year.

Night, Box.

Yup - got the one available ticket for both Friday and Saturday's shows. And to boot, I got a reward ticket on CO for 25,000 miles to get to EWR for said shows. I'm just being real greedy today.

I like some of C:rolleyes:nan's stuff, but, come on! He'd better improve a lot because that didn't hold a candle to Leno's monologues. Hopefully he'll have the Insult Dog tonight.
