Simple things...

Short background.

The Memorial Day long weekend is typically the Alma Highland Games, which are the US Pipe Band Championships and are located in Michigan. This is often the first road trip of the year for bands, but for a variety of reasons we did not attend this year.

Anyway, considering that is was the "Alma Weekend", it got us talking at the pub this afternoon about all of our memories, and such... eventually turning to experiences with American beer...

Lynda: So, have you ever had Busch?
Me: {speechless, then doubling over laughing}
Lynda: No! That's not what I meant!!!
Me: {still laughing}
Lynda: Well, Alma was the first time I tried Busch.
Me: {again, doubled over laughing}
Lynda: Noooooooo!!!
Me: Could you have possibly phrased that worse?
Lynda: {sigh} Anyway, Alma was the first time I tried Busch...
Me: {still laughing}
Lynda: ...and it tasted awful.
Me: {on the floor}

You can't make this stuff up.
