        She's doing good. She will have 8 years in, in July. She is getting out then and is going to get in the AF Reserve.

              I drank lots of beer in Munich....but it's not as good as Czech beer.

                    Germany and Austria are notorious for beer, they even sell it from machines, just like soft drinks here. I've tried many in different countries, I still like Guinness the best , followed by Peroni, the Italian one.

                          Glad you had a good trip and were able to see the young lady.. Germany has to be about the cleanest country I have ever been to in my travels.

                            I watched the mics drink that Guinness on Sunday morning at the N.Y. Irish alps. Your a good man if you can drink that stuff Fred I tried it and damn near got sick just tasting the stuff. Those guys were drinking it room temperature. Noooo bad not for me.

                              Well, room temperature is mostly cold in those countries. I was in Austria at some Austrian Folk show once and we had beer, at room temperature, well it was a real unusual hot summer so it was kind of warm and there was a guy from Spain group making a big thing out of it "how can they serve warm beer? I 'm going to complain, they have to bring me cold beer" so being the asshole that I am I got into the argument and told him to forget it, he wasn't going to get any cold beer in Austria, and that it was warm because of the weather, so other people on his group agreed with me and the guy shut the hell up. Funny thing one of the guys turned to me and said " You have a Cuban accent, where are you from".

                              At a pub in London the beer guy was surprised I drank Guinness....."You drink that? We don't like it around here!

                              Not much of a beer drinking but like the most pain in the ass man in the world, when I drink I drink Guinness, I think I have some left in the garage fridge since last year sometime.
