Foster's?  Hah.  I don't think so, Ian.  You get to drink only second-class
beer.


Which reminds me of the International Brewer's Convention.

On the final night, all the bigwigs were seated at a huge round table.  As
the waiter took orders, each of the executives in turn ordered his own
product.  Beck's, Heineken, Budweiser, Foster's, Kirin, Corona, San
Felipe... all around the table.  Last to be asked was the CEO of Guinness,
who ordered a cup of tea.  Several colleagues protested, encouraging him to
order one of his finest.  He replied, "Oh, no, fellows.  It would make me
feel uncomfortable to enjoy a beer while no one else does."
