Thou Shalt Not Complain about the Festivities – Your work used to take you out on the town for an expensive luncheon at a reputable Italian restaurant. There was a delicious spread and an open bar complete with hard liquor and several different sorts of beers. Now the affair has been downsized to a meeting room in your work’s office. The food is OK, but the drink choices consist of two different wines, an indistinctive red and a run-of-the-mill white, and two different beers that can only be described as “less than shite,” Miller Lite and Yuengling Lager. This is grounds for serious complaint, right? It’s indicative of your company’s lack of appreciation for your daily efforts, yeah? Wrong on both counts. There’s a recession on, man! Take what you are given and be glad your company pays you for checking out movie sites half the damn day.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Miller High Life Light
Miller High Life LightConsider the sheer lack of flavor that emerges from a bottle of Miller High Life. OK. Then imagine it with less taste. That's Miller High Life Lite. Someone handed me one when I was on the dancefloor of my holiday soiree. Could have been poured from a water fountain.

Booze...in 50 Words or Less: Estrella Damm
Estrella DammYesterday, my work had its holiday party at The American Pub in Philadelphia. Waitress did nice piece of salesmanship on us when she recommended that we get five of these in a bucket for $12. Not going to say it wasn't worth $2.40 per beer, but it was fairly putrid.
