My Own Back Yard

[iiipopes]

So...in addition to the virus, at least in my part of the country, it looks to be a bad tick season with unseasonably warm weather and above average rainfall. So...what I have to look forward to, in spite of best efforts, is sitting on my back deck with a Corona and Lyme.

good one... i have never tried corona. i might do that on the next order we make.

You will probably find, as all of us who have imbibed such have found out, is that there is a reason for putting a small piece of lime in a Corona beer.

Uh, Corona beer has announced they are suspending production for a while due to the Corona Virus. Get it while you can!

Or not. Mexican lager: On my annual trip to Zihuatanejo/Ixtapa with my band to play the fundraiser concert for the ex-pat sailboat club to raise money for building supplies for the schools, I much prefer Pacifico, Modelo Especial (ironically, Corona's parent company), Victoria (another Modelo product).

i've heard about that (adding lime to Corona and other beer) but I don't think i'd like it. i'm not used to the "finer" beer.

Finer beer? LOL!!! In Mexico, Corona is the cheapest-a$$ $#!+ beer there is, bottled in the old-fashioned brown round-top bottles. The USA market is pure marketing bull$#!+ and the lime is truly nothing but a gimmick to make it drinkable. That is what my "winking" emoji was trying to get at in my prior post.

A very large moon is to the East, a very bright Venus is in the West.

Venus happens to be close to a bright star that just makes it appear larger and brighter than ever!!

But it seems like Corona did have its purpose, at least "back in the day"...............

Corona taught me to be careful when uttering foreign words. It was in a local Mexican restaurant, right next to the university, with a sort of beach shack style and a distinctive menu. They make a fine grapefruit margarita and I look forward to that when I go there. It was advertised on the chalkboard as toronja, Spanish for grapefruit, so that's what I asked for. Imagine my disappointment when the waitress returned with a bottle of Corona with a quarter of lime inserted in the mouth.

I also woulda thought you put the lime in the coconut, but i see no coconut neither.

Well.
