     Too short for a short
"The craziest thing in the world is drinking Soy milk!!” At least that’s what she said. I knew nothing about the whole subject of nutrition, unless of course you asked me what the percentage of alcohol was in beer.
“Jenny puts Soy milk in her breakfast drink. I personally think it is disgusting.”
While she was talking, I went over the whole catalog in my head, the world’s largest storage house for useless information. Most American beers, I recalled, were kind of low when it came to the percentage of alcohol. Budweiser (The King of Beers) contained 4.82% per bottle. Coors was a bit better with 5.03%. That third beer, Miller Light was the worst of them all with 4.51%, drinking that stuff was just like drinking a bottle of distilled water. What was the point? Big John always tried to be all European about it. He told me that while beer was invented in Egypt, it was actually refined in Western Europe. But all of that stuff was not for a guy like me. I was too much of an American type, simple, liked my pancakes with butter and my meat on a bun. McDonald’s if possible. A quarter pounder with cheese. I would never pass for one of those fancy European types who hung around the bar and drank Grolsch Lager while discussing world affairs. Give me college football and a 12 pack of Old Milwaukee Beer. They sell that one for $6.95 where I live.
Cindy wanted to go buy some organic milk. “But none of that Soy shit” she insisted. I guess she was still upset at the fact that she caught me and Gina making out at the bar. We both had too many of those Miller Lights. That shit will get ya.
