Lakers versus Jazz. Obama versus Clinton. Apples versus bananas. Yes versus no. Love and understanding versus hate and pineapples.MILLER HIGH LIFE VERSUS JEFF
It was a cool and golden evening, yet refreshing and corny. A man dives, elegantly yet with masterful precision; his nose penetrates the surface. What's this? Before his body is consumed by the brilliant liquid the man hovers, suspended, an odor enshrouding his nasal membranes. "Corn..." The wind whispers as if it were a maligned lover, leprous and proud. A taste, a taste, oh what an urge! The man's lips embrace the golden tears and a word, possibly the most important word in the history of the English language, infiltrates his brain, "Husk..."
He ponders, "Yes, husk. It's as though life, at this moment, has been transmogrified into a pool... A golden pool of corn! But wait! Husk, or is it life? Is it life?!"
"Life..." The wind whispers as the man finally immerses his entire being, both physically and spiritually into the sparkling pool. Once suspended, face merely grazing the surface, the man now enters the realm of Cheap-and-Refreshing.

By the way, I like it.
This review is important, nay, cathartic. A discussion of the essence of man and beer, of diving and pineapples and tall ships; these are the elements of great adventure, wonder, BEER. Drinking Miller High life, I too have done battle with the Golden Ear. His terrible fury and husky shroud have both terrified and elated. I see that Jeff, as I, dare not drink such an offering without a lightly sheathed sword, always at the ready. ALWAYS AT THE READY. Let us pray:
“Oh Gaia, you have bestowed upon us such great wonders as hemp necklaces, Odwala, and women with bearded legs. Without you my life is low, and with you my Life, like the corn in autumn, is High. Gaia! Let me be your sword, your scythe. Let me shear the legs of the dirty and cut the hempen chains of oppression. I pray that you might lend me some small part of your yellow, starchy, infinite perfection. Allow me to BE the High Life. Amen.”
