[Admin]

Hehe..great picture. I also suspected someone pissing in a glass while the picture was loading

I sure hope the hell that was his finger sticking out as he was fishing for my change....

@Stephan compared to a fine Belgian beer our good ole Bud probably tastes like pee....

@thedude... amen brother!

[TeeJay]

Time for beer...

Yes, I've cracked open a Carlsberg I'd prefer a Red Stripe, but haven't got any in at the moment

[Admin]

Oh man...Now I want a beer also *goes to the fridge*

I hope a nice Boddington, or better, and not that fairy American or Canadian pee passing for beer. *shiver*

Although if we ever go out, I expect champers, Admin. I am practically a teetotaler, but I make an exception for the grape.

(OH! I didn't see you had posted this here too, Catchthecat. Here is my reply from RWI)

I LOVE THE WATCH! I should just have bought my dad this one, rather than the two Omega 007 SEs I got, which arrived DOA. Sniff. Thanks for the effort, Catchthecat! By the way, can one of you baseball-loving people do this type of spread one day?

I don't know what camera that Risti guy used, but my God, I felt I was batting alongside Richie Weeks!!

Bud ?

Oh Bud !

I remember seing someone drinking that in Brussels: SHE was very nice looking, with blond hairs though

DOMMAGE! You don't like blondes??

I can always dye my hairs...

@Admin: I've been to Trondheim Cathedral! And grew up skiing in St. Anton. How bad could it be?? This is just a ploy to avoid buying me Krug, isn't it?

[Admin]

mmm....... *enjoying a cold pilsner from Hansa*

Vic, you (or I) would have a long way to travel. But I think I would be more comfortable with the climate in Miami than you would be here in Norway, waaay up north (Even further up north than where Nanuq lives)

Oya, guess I'm lucky, my 007 rep has been ticking away for a year under heavy wear. I hang at TZ, pmwf, and about every other gen and rep forum there is. I saw that pictorial on the link and at first I thought I was going to the Seiko-Citizen trading forum which is also hosted at network54. I have decent 7 mp digital with all the SLR adjustments that can do those photos but I had only had my tiny pocket camera on this recent outing.

[ahchard]

ahhh... Bud.... just like having sex in a canoe....

[hambone]

There is never a time when it is not "Beer Oclock"

[cornerstone]

"Go Cards"!!!

(Didn't seem like they had much luck though....)

Mmmm - Hansa....Need beer....Lovely, lovely beer (Looks forlornly at coffee on desk).

He used a Canon PowerShot SD800 IS, 7.4 megapixel, 3.8x optical/4x digital zoom. Not a particularly powerful camera, tbh.

As an example of a good zoom on a point-and-click, here are some long-range photos I've taken using my 5 megapixel Panasonic:

[catchthecat]

so bringing continuity to beers and photos...

By the way:

How much is a beer in a pub in the US?

It seems that you guys find $7.50 quite expensive.

We're talking about a glass, like the American pint (473 mL).

That's what a regular cheap beer is in the pubs here in Sweden.

American beer is like sex in a boat: f*cking close to water. What you get in Sweden would be slightly stronger and 93 times the price due to your taxes.

It's a shame no-one has a quick table of this site:

That's a cool site.

Thanks!

In the US the pub price runs from $2 to $3 for a standard bottle of beer, $6-$7 for a six pack of bottles in the stores. The $7.50 is the marked up price at the sports stadium during baseball, football, or other professional sports games.
