Quote :

Pabst Blue Ribbon, or simply PBR, is enjoying an unlikely comeback across the country. After a steady decline since the 1970s, sales rose about 5 percent in 2002 and 15 percent in 2003....

There had been no change in marketing. Pabst somehow appealed to trendsetters: punk rockers, people into bluegrass, kayakers and mountain bikers, Stewart said....

"It's really popular with not only the college students but also the working class guy and the <i>Social Security crowd,</i>" (i.e. RC :wink: )...

Betty's owner Lessner said, "People are really sick of the Budweiser-type marketing with naked girls and cars. Pabst is kinda hokey and nostalgic and people like it."...


Man, I haven't had any PBR since school. May have to get some this weekend.

Nudity should become advertising law. If anyone in future wants to market anything, show us naked chicks. Or no sale.

I know the stuff, we have similar, low priced booze over here. Feels like you're slumming it when you drink that stuff.

I drink lots of different beer. My friends rip on me about that. They say "Pick a GD beer, dammit!" Drives waitresses nuts, too, because I'll want 8 different ones in a row, and they keep trying to just bring the same thing. I just drink that one more than any other.

Guinness being at the very top end of the scale of beer, I should hope.

Say nothing bad about the banquet beer! Actually, about the only beer that I completely cannot stomach, other than some of those "micro-brews" and such, is nat light.

Drinkin southpaw now, actually.

Was with the little lady renting a movie and I said "I don't see anything I want, just get whatever. I'm going next door to Winn Dixie for some more beer."

She gave me one of <b>those</b> looks, and said "MORE beer?!?!" She must think I've had enough this weekend. :redface:

Well, I don't know that 1337 stuff, so it pretty much flies over my head!

I've got a web cam, somewhere, but don't know how to use it. I used to talk with my brothers on the week end live with it on Mplayer when it was free. When they started charging, I put it up & haven't used it since. I'm not sure it will even run on XP. I had it on 98 it was that long ago.

I can shoot short vids on my digital camera. I play with it sometimes. I just don't do much with movies, like I do with photos..

On MSN and most new IMs, you can use webcam and voice chatting with absolutely no problem. Give the webcam a try with WinXP and see if it detects it. I have an old Quickcam Express from Logitech and it works perfectly on MSN.

It's funny that my binary joke flew through your head LOL! :lol:

And I did use my digicam to shoot that video btw! 640*480 with sound madness baby! Not even the better A80 supports that resolution, compared to my A70. In your face Auburn! :tongue:

That's funny!! I've got the Logitech Quickcam Pro, so it must work then.

Then there's the other problem, I don't like MSN for nothing. One of my clients runs it & PalTalk at the time. I know MSN doesn't do it, but that PalTalk puts spyware on his machine like crazy. He likes the chat thaough, so I'm teaching him how to protect him slef running it. Now those guys really get going there!

:wink: Back by popular demand.

Actually, take all the pride you want in the vid capability. Doesn't matter to me at all. I may never use the video capability of any digicam I own. I'm not sure I've even checked out what the 80 does. Video people and still photographers tend to be two different types. I'm a still photographer, obviously. My father's wife has given me 3 video cameras, a Canon, and two Sonys, that she bought and never used, and I've still never used either of them. Hope uses em a bit, but she's a video person.
