I hope they serve beer in hell.
« on: September 25, 2009, 11:00:30 AM »
OK, I read this book and it was THE FUNNIEST book I've ever read. I mean, I'm reading this on the plane and I have a stewardess telling me to keep it quiet!

Anyway, it's now a movie (well excerpts of it) opening today. Unfortunately it's not showing in my area, so I'm going to check it out while I'm on business travel.

For all you Chicago boys, it's all over the windy city.




Agonizing over what cannot be is an insult to what is.

I'll have to check it out for sure!
People are not limited by the circumstance that they are born in. They are limited by the size of their dreams. Show them that their dreams can have no limits and in turn their accomplishments can be limitless.

Tucker was my brother-in-law's roommate.  You know the story about him puking on the dog?  That is my brother-in-law's dog.  A lot of his stories are from my hometown.  He's pretty crazy.

I have not read his book, but I've read some of the stories.  His writing is hilarious!

I don't know about hell, but in Heaven there is no beer - that's why we drink it here.

well..in light of what is bein discussed..I think I'll let Jamey Johnson speak for himself

Our country demands all our strength, all our energies. To resist the powerful combination now forming against us will require every man at his place. If victorious we will have everything to hope for in the future. If defeated, nothing will be left for us to live for.

   Quite a few times when me and the guys would hit the bar for some beers after work i would start a tab----
 About 3 or 4 hours later i would get up and say i need too go too the bathroom...... And i would sneak out the back door and not come back   :*))   .. Boy would i catch HELL the next day...They know my scam now and always make sure cash is on the table......Of course when they are good and ripped  i can pull it off again --and i do........Thats my only Beer-Hell post........

The movie poster got me hooked...or at least, if I were to have to choose a movie to see impulsively...it would be the one.
