Respectful Insolence

"A statement of fact cannot be insolent." The miscellaneous ramblings of a surgeon/scientist on medicine, quackery, science, pseudoscience, history, and pseudohistory (and anything else that interests him)

Who (or what) is Orac?

orac.jpg Orac is the nom de blog of a (not so) humble pseudonymous surgeon/scientist with an ego just big enough to delude himself that someone, somewhere might actually give a rodent's posterior about his miscellaneous verbal meanderings, but just barely small enough to admit to himself that few will. (Continued here, along with a DISCLAIMER that you should read before reading any medical discussions here.)

Orac's old Blog is archived at Archived Insolence.

In honor of St. Patrick's Day: I can't argue with this result too much

Category: Miscellaneous
Posted on: March 17, 2006 3:07 AM, by Orac

Here's an appropriate one for St. Patrick's Day:

You Are Guinness
You know beer well, and you'll only drink the best beers in the world. Watered down beers disgust you, as do the people who drink them. When you drink, you tend to become a bit of a know it all - especially about subjects you don't know well. But your friends tolerate your drunken ways, because you introduce them to the best beers around.

Although I do like Guinness, it's not my favorite beer. Personally, I prefer Magic Hat No. 9, Goose Island Honker's Ale, Newcastle Brown, and various brown ales made by Magic Hat and Goose Island. Sadly, Goose Island beers are only available in Chicago and parts of the Midwest, which means that I seldom get to sample them anymore.

I've never been a big beer drinker, but the two I fopund that are above 'drinkable' are San Miguel, and a local Baltimore brew called Arrow 77 (does anyone know if that's still being brewed?).

I don't care about beer at all, but when a brand makes an ad like this

in these exciting times, I'll toast virtually ;-).

Zzzz...that was excellent. In addition to being a great advertisement, it should provide all the education an IDer needs to understand why evolution is important.

Looks like I'm a "Sam Adams".

Which isn't bad, considering that the Summer Ale is one of my favorite american beers.

Up here it's a Sleeman's Honey Brown lager though. :)
