Tonight Anheuser-Busch launched their new Budweiser American Ale website, staring my new favorite beer, and kayaking. I am lucky enough to be the kayaker representing this Ale. Why you wonder, did they pick EJ? I can’t answer for them, but I’ll tell you the story….
I was at NOC at the International Whitewater Hall of Fame induction ceremony where I was about to be inducted (i was honored to have it bestowed on me while still alive and still in my prime) and a guy handed me a frosty brown glass of beer (clearly an Ale) and I am an Ale Adict. I love my Ales and can tell the on the first sip, Newcastle, Bass, Flying dog, Magic Hat, Fat Tire, Dale’s, etc. etc. I took my first sip and loved it, but I couldn’t place it. I didn’t think british, too hoppy, and too “microbrew”. but i gave up and tracked the guy down that gave it to me (bless his heart, I didn’t even know him) and asked what it was and he told me, “Budweiser American Ale”. No #$R$$ way! Budweiser Makes Budweiser, and then lighter versions of it, I thought. I never imagined that they would make an ale. Wow, I am in love- pair one of my favorite USA brands, with my new favorite beer and you have paradise!
A year later, I found out that in the background, was that guy that gave me the beer. he was an employee of Anheuser-Busch and his only job was to bring the beer to the Hall of Fame induction ceremony, pour it perfectly into a frosty glass, and hand it to me at an appropriate time and record my reaction. Apparrently my reaction was what they were looking for, and the rest is history. Really the rest is just about to begin.
first off, check out their new website for Budweiser American Ale- http://www.budamericanale.com it has a nice glass being filled up while the flash uploader works in the background to prepare a very cool presentation. Click on the Eric Jackson section, of course (after you enter your over 21 birthday), to see the kayaking action. photos, a short/sweet video, and a way to follow me on the Fun Tour all season.
If that isn’t enough to wet your appetite to see more- meet up with me on the Fun Tour stops listed, and share a nice cold Budweiser American Ale, on me. I have 120 cases, and that is more than enough to share with my friends, and new friends along the way.
check it out! http://www.budamericanale.com

If your son/daughter had downs syndrome and someone made a joke about it, you’d probably be offended too. But, the Family Guy video is blocked at work, so I can’t really judge the full context.

There are several advantages to shopping online, the first one being the ability to shop at a time that is convenient to you, not just when the shops are open. The second advantage of shopping online is that goods are often cheaper as the seller does not have the costs of running a shop and having to pay wages to salespeople, insurance and all of the other running costs of a real world business.

Hi. Let me start off by saying I am a technophobe so if you can help, please answer in no techie language (make it stupid proof so I can undersand it!) Gone to switch on my PC this morning, gone in to the normal family user account (which is an administrator account) and I get the black screen. I tried signing in through the Administrator account and my son’s account (which has administrator rights) and I get the same. Signed in through anon administrator account and the desk top pops up fine. Basically the problem seems to be with profiles that have administrator rights. I cant make adminsrator changes through non adminstrator accounts (I had thought about deletin and re-adding the effected accounts) Any ideas how to resolve this? (PS my son and daughter are both now on Macs and are loving the fact that I am having a problem with Windows!!) Many thanks

Citroen is all about making the most of its recent concept car attention and form, and its DS High Rider concept, a three-door crossover, tiptoed in front of the cameras at the Geneva Motor Show last month, but the French company only showed us its outer parts. We are now worthy of a glimpse inside, created to follow the exterior design’s philosophy of “strength, dynamism and refinement” and add a dash of “sporting luxury.” None of this means we’ll actually see the High Rider in production, but the company is doing well enough with the hatch that we don’t think it impossible. In the meantime, have a look the inside and outside of it in the galleries of high-res photos below.

Thank God! thanks for the replay mate…It really is good to temper expectations early, Just wait until he tweets about dinner with Digger Phelps.

Howdy, I am checking out this page via the phone and this seems kinda odd. Assumed you’d want to be aware of. That it is a great article nevertheless, just didn’t mess that up.

I agree with a lot of what you’re saying here but it could do with more detail. – I was thrown out of college for cheating on the metaphysics exam: I looked into the soul of another boy. (Clown Prince of American Humor, 1975) – Woody Allen Born 1935

This is a good approach to what, for some, may be a controversial topic. Very well though out post. – I’m not afraid to die. I just don’t want to be there when it happens. – Woody Allen Born 1935
