I think Budweiser tastes terrible, and the beer is poorly.

For this reason, I believe that the best way for Budweiser to pay tribute to 9/11 is to not pay tribute at all and leave it to something that actually suggests quality, or taste and not merely image.

I like this tribute, regardless of taste or whatever, it was nice of them.

Is there anything you do like? In your 900 odd posts I've yet to see you do much else but whinge and whine about pretty much everything.

I don't like status symbols.

I like other beers, and Star Control II.

I've said many good things.

Cheers

There are no limits. If it truly was a tribute, there would be no need for the logo at the end.
