It's an acquired taste, anyway. So many nasty beers, too few good ones.

I'd say it's quite the opposite ; most beers are quite fine.
Also, I've heard that coffee is an acquired taste, too ; I've had no problem
acquiring the taste of beer, but coffee is still as nasty as ever.

tod, you might then like Lagunitas Cappucino Stout, which is made with
real coffee. You can get it at Whole Foods.

re resp:100 Now see, I'm the exact opposite, I've found coffee to be
much more pleasing.

I like both beer and coffee, the difference being that coffee is an
addiction but beer is not.

Alcoholism is an addiction, isn't it?

Coffee isn't an addiction, it is a basic need, like air and water.
Intelligent life could not exist without it. The decline in civility
in America is because of decaf.

Re #105: Yes, in a loose sense, which is why I'm glad I'm *not*
addicted to beer.

Neither coffee or beer is, strictly speaking, an addiction. You can drink
either without getting addicted. However, it is, of course, possible to get
addicted to them - and easier, perhaps, than it is to get addicted to, say,
potato.

Some people don't get addicted to caffeine, alcohol, or nicotine, and some
do.

re #109
I dunno..I think its becoming more popular to get addicted to the insulin from
fast food(potato) than with beer.

Hmm, that may well be true. Good point. In the USA, anyhow. I think people's
fave addiction is still beer in the UK.

And that's not all.. The kids these days are all hooked on this stuff they
call "O2". In street slang they're known as "breathers."

I'm bummed because my mother was in a bad car accident last night,
nothing broken (except the car, probably totaled) but she is banged up
pretty good, got a concussion, lots of bruises from the seatbelt and
cuts from the windshield. She's awful sore but seems to be ok. (she's
80)

Wow, I hope she is okay, Steve. I'm glad she survived. How did the
accident happen?
