    Whoa, you dropped the CH bomb. There is no way you'll find a mule with that kind of language!

    Lol, I actually was just inquiring with a friend of mine who was born in WI and lived there for a good part of his life if the term Cheesehead is frowned upon or taken with great offense. I truly meant it in jest, but now I'm actually pretty curious about how Wisconsinites feel about the term.

    Well, overlooking how you bastardized it with a hyphen, it's considered a complement.

    From wikipedia: Cheesehead is a nickname referring to a person from Wisconsin, referring to the large volume of production of Wisconsin cheese. It is also the nickname for the fans of the Green Bay Packers American Football team of the National Football League. The term is also used as a racial slur towards theDutch.

    So, how did you intend to use it?

    Agreed.

    You must be from the area. It's not like the TG truck (van?) comes that often (wish they would come more).

    Well, I'd never want to offend the Dutch! Nor would I really want to insult a potential beer trading partner :slight_smile: I only utter the phrase with any hint of disgust if I was at a Bear Packer game and we were getting our asses kicked as usual.

    Almost seems like you're kissing ass now. If I were a fan of the Packers, it might work. If I find myself near Amherst, I'll keep you fellas in mind.

    Of course, I would require you to publicly bash the Packers as part of the agreement.

    I'm sure that could be arranged. Are not a fan of any football team, or just not the Packers?

    There are only two things I hate in this world, people who are intolerant of other people's cultures, and the Dutch.

    I thought quoting anything Austin Powers related was banned from this site?

    Austin Powers? Isn't that from the Gettysburg Address?

    I checked with CW last year when 15 was on the shelf and they said they didn't distribute it (and wanted to know what store it was, price, etc) so it's probably a pretty safe assumption that it's the same deal this year unless CW decided to reward them with 16 distribution for breaking the rules and screwing tons of people out of bottles of 15 last year.

    Dude, I totally get it! My buddy has a lake house in Eagle River and I've always said we should head to CW, but can never convince everyone that the detour would be well worth it. Have fun up in the UP, gonna do any fishing?

    If you take 94 to 41 to 45 to 10 to 39 to 8 to 17 you get to eagle river and pass CW.
