I get a faint but repetitive signal that this vonne guy wants someone to show him which keys to hit! Or better to hit the keys for him. Well, maybe his English equals my Dutch...only word I know is Grolsch...and can only pronounce it after gargling a six pack.

"pronounce it after gargling a six pack". I trust Old Frothingslosh, the beer with the foam in the bottom! Still have a can around somewhere.

Ohio Ralph:

For shame.  Degrading Old Frothingslosh like that.  Not a mere BEER, but "The Pale, Stale Ale with the foam on the bottom."  Denny R could probly find a can.  Possum could use it as a hood ornament (legitimizing Kolb reference).  For visual enlightenment, go to:

http://home.comcast.net/~kolbplanes/frothingslosh.jpg  and for those who are really trying to console themselves for not being at the TNK Reunion, (2nd legitimizing Kolb reference) go read a little background at:  http://www.rustycans.com/oldfroth.html

Well George, I am an old "hand" at the Frothingslosh thing. I used to call on the beverage industry. I worked for a supplier of filling equipment components. Pittsburgh Brewing in PA. and Scheingling (misspell, I know), in Cincinnati, Ohio. They were without a doubt the most enjoyable bunch of people at that time I had ever met. Both down to earth companies, although so was the Bud. boys and many others. These two breweries were just basic real down to earth people (not that some would not be heavenly in their time).



Pittsburgh Brewing had a special program right around the Christmas Holidays and I used to load up cases of the  Old Frothingslosh and the memorabilia, such as calendars, key chains, posters and others. These I would give out to some of my "Pop' customers, Barqs, Beverage Management, Pepsi and others. Theses guys would go nuts to get this stuff. It always got me in, got me orders and made a pretty tough job a little easier. I owe that lady a big salute. Sorry she passed. Most memorable was the ticker tape parade down the back ally with people throwing paper, cans etc down at her as she road on the (ready Pat?) bonnet of a Triumph TR-3, in a bathing suit. What a memory.



Now to make it relating to airplanes, Pat sent me information about a beer that mocks the Germans of WW-II fame and uses air planes and cute little quips about the war flying of the German pilots. Pat, would you care to elaborate?



 Ralph, still sipping a bit of gentle beer here in Ohio.

Hi Ralph,

 seeing that you ask.



Messrs Shepherd Neame is a well respected family owned brewery in the County 

of Kent.  For the anniversary of the Battle of Britain they produced a 

special `Spitfire Ale` and ran an advertising campaign under the banner `The 

Bottle of Britain`



Some of the slogans I will describe made it into print and some did not.



`Spitfire Ale. Downed all over Kent. Just like the Luftwaffe.



Spitfire Ale. No Fokker comes close



Goering.....goering....gone.  Written across three glasses of beer. One 

full, one half empty, one empty



How to make a sauerkraut.  Mention the war.



A row of Royal Air Force medals plus a bottle opener.  `Not for Messrs 

Schmidt`



A bottle top bouncing across the poster. A reference to the `bouncing bomb` 

with which we took out the Mohne and Eder dams.



The campaign produced angry protests from the Germans.  Great!



Separately there was an `anti German` TV advert.  The Germans are well known 

throughout Europe for their habit of getting up very early when on holiday, 

and  earmarking all the hotel sunbathing chairs around the swimming pool by 

putting their towels on them. This is not cricket and infuriates us.  The 

advert showed an English holiday maker throwing a rolled up towel, marked 

with a Union Jack, from his hotel room window. It bounced in slow motion all 

across the swimming pool, again imitating the `bouncing bomb` and unrolled 

on a sunbed. The whole thing was accompanied by `The  Dambusters March ` 

from the excellent film of that name.



The Germans were not amused. Again!. Oh Dear! What a shame.

Well. You did ask.



Cheers



Pat

Pat, way to funny. I enjoyed that very much, again.



So, what are you doing up in the middle of the night?



Have things settled at your house: Mother-in -law, government buro-krouts and stuff like that?



I'l bet you would love to be at the Kolb Fly-in. Did you read my piece on getting to the factory early? They are really super and quite inovative. You will never meet a more caring bunch(Band) of Brothers outside of foxholes and pubs anywhere else.



Ohio Ralph sopping a fine Old Milwaukee. NEVER drinkg a Milwaukee's Best. There down stream of the Old Milwaukee beer plant.

Hi Ralph,



I did indeed read your piece. Lucky you.  I hope to make it one year but it 

is a toss up between Kentucky and Monument Valley . Dont think I can justify 

2 trips to the States  one year so I wil have to spread it a bit.

Trouble is that the restrictions imposed by the so called `war on 

turrurists` make what was just a boring flight in to something which is a 

real pain in the backside. Being welcomed into the States by a 6ft wide 

black woman snarling  `Dont cross the yaller line until I call` does not 

make it an experience I look forward too.. Such a pity because all the 

people I have met in the States have been helpful and  friendly. With the 

exception of my waiter at Sardi`s but thats another story.



Cheers



Pat
