Greg, when that transformer blew it must have lit up half of Georgia.
The value must be tremendous, copper is $3.05 a pound today per "Comex"
I would imagine that the trucking firm would provide armed transportation and layover security?
People steel Copper wiring daily. Many times the wiring is still active, sending the thieves into oblivion.

Dan apparently that's a fairly common occurrence. Sometimes I get two or three of those a week. They just keep melting them down and making new ones.

When I read this I thought "Knowing Greg he's got a Negra Modelo!"
Greg, as we've discussed our taste in beer runs down the same gutter - dark is better. (Figure of speech - there's nothing "gutter" about Negra Modelo. Had my first Negra Modelo in Aguascalientes in 1986, years before it was ever exported to the U.S. that I know of.)

Speaking of dark beer, next time you're in the DFW area try one of these.
From a small local craft brewery. Not for the faint of heart!

Now that looks like a thick brew there Ken. I'll have to give that a shot. Texas seems to have quite a large number of micro breweries I have noticed.

Looks like something you would chew instead of something you would drink.

A loaf of bread in every bottle!
I'm afraid I'm not a very sophisticated beer drinker. I prefer pale ales - and quite frankly, anything more than an ice cold Miller Lite is completely wasted on me. Wine, vodka & tequila are a completely different story...

Chewy or not, loaf of bread in the bottle or not, I like dark beers so I would try it.

TFL The pale ales and lagers always tasted bitter to me. I think if you would try my most favorite, New Castle Brown Ale you would really enjoy it.

I went to Germany a few years back and drank a lot of "bit burger" beer. Great flavor. I'd consider it an ale. They serve it at the McDonald's drive threw window. Great country

I can't decide if my favorite is "New Castle Brown Ale" or "Yuengling".

Didn't realize how reading all these posts could make one thirsty!
Yuengling for sure jerryd. If you prefer dark, their Black and Tan is good.

I don't remember if I've tried the Black & Tan or not. Seems like I did a couple of years ago when we were down in Tennessee but I just don't recall. I'm pretty much hooked on the Traditional Lager.
John was typing while I was. Me too John. I also like Negra Modelo and Michelob Amber Bock.
