Light Weight Champion

I have barely healed from the many bruises and scrapes I obtained from the camping trip from over a month ago. After Rocky Point, I have glass in my heel that has yet to extract itself. I have bruises on my legs and a slightly swollen ankle which I have no recollection of obtaining. My legs look like I strive to be the next Courtney Love.
Tonight, after a long day of cleaning, running errands and cleaning again... mopping up after Dookie's many dookies (four to be exact), I had two beers. Two beers made me stumble and miss a step that I have been walking down and over for over two years. Let me elaborate. I had my first beer at 8 pm. My second, I started at 10 pm and at 10:30, I did this...










If I am lucky, it will heal by Thanksgiving.

¿Porque una Lima?

Una Cerveza con Lima..., originally uploaded by scoobers1.

I was sitting on the porch in 80+ degree weather with a nice cool breeze in my hair, feet up, getting ready to enjoy my ice cold beer when I noticed a million eyes staring up at me from the rim of my drink. This got us talking about why limes are always present in a beer in Mexico.

Here are the Top Five reasons for the lime:
5. Simply, it is a Mexican tradition. Viva una lima!

4. Lime placement is a garnish, a touristy gimmick that makes the beer look muy bonita.

3. The lime acts as a beer-swiffer that keeps the top of your beer free from sand, dust and dirt.

2. A squeeze of a lime masks the skunk in Corona, adds flavor to the bland and makes a great tasting XX oh-so refreshing!

1. The tiny wedge will keep unwanted pelican-crap-and-dead-sea-creature-bacteria laden flies out of the mouth of your beer!

A toast to Numero Uno! Shoo-flies and Salud!
