Wow, we were really skinny in 1979!
Even in 1979 I had better taste than to drink Miller.
We were PBR guys. I was going to mention that I actually worked as a grunt on a helicopter based survey working for the BLM in 1979 up on the south face of the Uintahs. But then I realized that it might make me seem much older than I perceive that I am.
I always enjoy a good beer commercial, even when I would never drink that brand of beer.
After being in the Navy I could almost tell where someone grew up from the brand of Cigarettes they preferred to smoke, I could only tell if they had good or bad taste in beer from the beer they drank.

Everybody was skinny back then. The restaurant chain "Chilis" has a current tv ad about their fledgling beginning back in the early seventies. They got the clothes, haircuts and the cars correct. And I was proud of them for casting a lot of skinny people. 😉
ps - remember Clarence "Lumpy" Rutherford in the Leave it to Beaver series? He was portrayed as being the pudgy round kid. Hell I wish I was that skinny now!
1979, the high desert, helicopter, surveying, only thing missing is a blue and white Bronco,,,,,,,,,,that and any point to what was going on with the surveying:cool:

I don't know, after a hot day like today, with temps over 100, I will pretty much drink any beer served to me that it even remotely cooler than the ambient air temp. Come on...it's the Champagne of Beers!

Close, but black label and genny screamers were the real tickit
I have had some beer that was better than others...but all I've got to say is the worst beer I ever had was still wonderful.
Why did every bottler have something called Old Whatzthecity? Milwaukee, Chicago, Detroit, East McKeesport?

Ashamed to say that back in high school we drove many a mile with a case of Genesee Scream-oil between us on the front seat of a '64 Falcon, while passing a bottle of Hiram Walker Blackberry Brandy.......
Who can argue with a beer that Liberace and Fred MacMurray both endorse.
I think I saw @ Daryl Moistner in that commercial....man he was young back then.
Had a young guy working with me with this came out. He said "you would kill me if I let the plumb bob swing like that". That was the first thing I noticed as well.

I guess some guys just have more swing on their plumb bobs than others.....;)
