Well, here is a surprise. People drink in a poor economy.
When people are depressed or undergoing financial hardships, they drink. Who would have thought?
My proof? Anheuser-Busch made $1.28 billion in the last quarter of 2009. Budweiser remains the market leader in the US and Brazil.
Sure some people will say it had nothing to do with the economy but I beg to differ. If it is not due to the economy, what is it?
- Certainly there were not that many NASCAR events going on.
- Martha Stewart has not changed from cooking with wine to beer.
- With the increasing shortage on chicken wings; beer and wing combos have not increased.
- Beer is still more expensive than water (for now).
Yep, I pretty much think it was the economy but will need extensive time and money to research fully.

Fine, I suppose this is where you look for some witty insights to my mind. A "bio" of sorts. Here is the deal... I ride motorcycles, smoke cigars, golf, kayak, fly, race my car through the mountains, write (a lot), and travel extensively. I am almost old enough not to care what other people think about me...almost. ~Godfadr
