NBS BIF #16 Hints and Hauls: Sweet Sixteen - Teenage Lust Tastes Like Creamed Corn and Rolling Rock

Oh , I’m sure its easy

 

I’m out

 

This just came up on my FB feed:

 

Hilarious. This really cracks me up because she brought me home a box of Milk Duds but where it said “Milk”, she covered it with paper and wrote “Shootin’”. I got a good kick out of it.

 

Me too.

 

It's the new geography.

 

And out...again.

 

That's a GREAT clue.

 

nope, you destroyed my porch a couple rounds ago

 

Indian rivers, I'll give you Indian rivers, via Wikipedia:

The name Allegheny probably comes from Lenape welhik hane[4][5] or oolikhanna, which means 'best flowing river of the hills' or 'beautiful stream'.[6] There is a Lenape legend of a tribe called "Allegewi" who used to live along the river.[7] Hernando de Soto in 1540 and others such as Henry Schoolcraft in subsequent years report the "Allegewi" were the Cherokees.[8]

The following account of the origin of the name Allegheny was given in 1780 by Moravian missionary David Zeisberger: "All this land and region, stretching as far as the creeks and waters that flow into the Alleghene the Delawares called Alligewinenk, which means 'a land into which they came from distant parts'. The river itself, however, is called Alligewi Sipo. The whites have made Alleghene out of this, the Six Nations calling the river the Ohio."[9]

Indians, including the Lenni Lenape and Iroquois, considered the Allegheny and Ohio rivers as the same, as is suggested by a New York State road sign on Interstate 86 that refers to the Allegheny River also as Ohiːyo'.[7] The Geographic Names Information System lists O-hee-yo and O-hi-o as variant names.[10] The river is called Ohi:'i` (river beautiful) in the Seneca language.[11] In New York, areas around the river are often named with the alternate spelling Allegany in reference to the river; for example, the Village of Allegany and Allegany State Park. Port Allegany, located along the river in Pennsylvania near the border with New York, also follows this pattern.

 

Many of the rivers around me currently (rivers-current lol) also haz Indian names; Nooksack, Samish, Skagit, Stillaguamish. Perhaps folks have eliminated themselves in too much haste?

 

They play on 19 Nov, so I'm out, depending on how you define "flagship".

 

So far I am out on: Kemoarps, Woemad, Snothouse, Dimidiata, 2beerdogs, Beersnake1, Victorysabre, BigIronH, Foundersasap, & Macmalt. That leaves 8.

 

My hints may be a little


I’ll send some beers from Texas
But I promise none from her country.


Your state has an over-rated beer nexus
There are more compelling reasons to go there
Although my opinion may cause dissensus.

 

That makes me very suspicious, because my state does have one.

 

I’m out on your #2 - the Connecticut River is just over 400 miles long
