    I've had a very fortunate life, and never been taken to Michigan. That's one of only 6 states I haven't been to now, and I think it will stay that way. hahaha

    Edit: After this past summer, I'm down to 6 states I haven't been to

    I like Michigan as long as it isn't January. My demise had more to do with having a week long work event being hosted at UofM. Do you know how many $11 party pitchers of long islands a 50 will get ya?

    A pitcher of Long Island sounds bad enough let alone in the plural sense

    That is the correct answer in hindsight. Had to fly home the next morning, still drunk, let alone hungover. Ever been cut off by the flight attendant before the airplane left the gate? :rofl:

    My first official purchase of alcohol in the USA after I was 21 was a pitcher of Long Island... What a treat that was.

    But I'd been drinking since I was 18 in Australia, so everyone was trying to make a big deal that turning 21 was important. LOL

    I had an Aussie Army Special forces sgtmaj drink with me and my crew on the last night of training in Australia. He passed out on the floor we put him in my rack and I slept on the couch. I woke up he was gone and left me a pin an a thank you. One of the best drinking experiences of my life lol. He was funny as shit. That dude could drink his ass off

    Hahaha, that sounds incredible. Incredibly I've never blacked out from drinking, so I guess I haven't set my goals as high as some people have!!

    It was a good time, I may have gotten on his bad side by making fun of him our first day their. He was about 5’6” and looked like a dried up piece of leather lol. I thought he hated me and ran me all over the place. But at the end he thought I was pretty funny and wanted to have fun himself. Some people have different definitions of fun I guess.

    Hahhaa, not uncommon for Aussies to look pretty weathered from that harsh sun down there.

    (And "BOOM" with the name change!! hahahah. Been waiting since yesterday for them to change my official name on here, since I'm going solo from Dobinsons, but will still be selling it, just independently.)

    Yea and training and being up in the Northern Territory doesn’t help either. Between the sun, heat, and running from damn snakes that 2 months but a few years on me too lol

    This is true, just don’t take a loss in the garden of the beer hall. That is frowned upon

    To be fair, SoCal breweries are proud of their beer and we were probably in the 6-8% range last night.

    I was baby sitting and had 3 myself. You were at least 2 ahead of me.
