Bad times Ahead

It's a pity that the U.S. is being bought up by the Chinese and other interest who are bleeding millions of U.S. jobs and currency from the U.S. by the Trillions of dollars annually while it all goes unnoticed by the U.S. populace.

I disagree. I've had a lot of supposedly good beers both room temp and cold, and I always find them tastier when they are cold. It might still be good in room temp, but not as good as when cold.

well, that's what they tell in the Czech Republic when you ask beer and its not cold. Those guys invented beer in the city of Pilsen so I can imagine they know what they talk about... I mean I can imagine...
