A good morning to you, America.  Ronald Wilson Reagan, aka Oded "Newt"
Maron, is now in charge of GSB purchases.  So you can expect a revitalized
GSB, one that reflects the strength and fortitude of the men and women that
make this lab great.  I'm talking about the beer drinkers, the hard-core
oatmeal ingesting majority that wouldn't drink rice pap any more than
they'd kiss foreign boot.

Oded understands what makes GSB the best social gathering in the world.
It's hard work, dark drinks, and a disgust for weakness.  So last week he
bought Triple Bock and Duvel.  This week it's Rhino Chasers, Warthog and a
case of Anchor Porter.  That's Porter- deep, rich, and with a taste that
could kill a commie twenty miles away.  You don't see unwed mothers
drinking Porter.  No sir.

Course, Oded spent a little so that we could drink this stuff.  Quality
doesn't come cheap.  So GSB is in a bit of debt.  But not to worry, because
good brews draw the heavy drinkers, the ones that keep the lab alive.  And
keeping them happy is what GSB is all about.  While they're downing their
cold ones, they're getting ideas that get all of us more funding, and more
people will be able to buy beer.  GSB will make more money than ever.  Of
course, in the meanwhile, we'll need to cut back on spending some- can't be
fiscally irresponsible, not in Oded's contract with the lab.  So, no
rootbeer, no pansy drink for the weak, not in these tough times.  At least
not with GSB funds; no doubt some philanthropist will buy a few for the
disadvantaged- subsidized Porter drinkers will have plenty of cash to give
away.  It all works out for everyone!

Yes, it's a supply-side GSB.  With dynamic cash, beer brewed in America,
and a healthy disrespect for people like Robert Thau.
