See, NASCAR IS good for something! I love what these guys have done with bobsleds. A whole lot of smarts there.

There must be something wrong with me, the first thing I thought of is a bottle of cheapass wine even the winos won't touch.
Sorry.

You're obviously not serving it cold enough.

One of these nights I need to get blind drunk on Thunderbird... just to say I did.
I've never even seen it for sale, though.

See, I went a different direction: That crappy GNR song. "I'm on the night train.... I'm on the night train.... I'm on the night train, never to retuuuuurrrrrnnnn...."

The Night Train I first thought of is the old Jimmy Forrest blues tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DxqQxJt_LQI
The bobsled run was pretty cool too, although that skintight racing suit on the driver was a bit much for me.

I've had it a few times, both Night Train and MD 20/20 are pretty bad but drinkable. Cisco is just terrible, and I've never had the desire to try Thunderbird. Bum wine gives you a hell of an experience; it is a rough way to get totally f*cked up for 4 dollars.
Most sketchier liquor stores will have a fridge dedicated solely to bum wines.

Even cheap bum wine doesn't give me the headache that Bud does.
Maybe I'l allergic to anything Anheiser.

I believe the GNR song is about the cheap wine...
My dad was Air Force in the early 60s, and I'v eoften heard the refrain from the times "What's the word? Thunderbird! What's the price? Thirty thrice!"
Although i bet it's more than $0.90 now, I keep meaning to down a bottle in his honor one day.

I thought the GNR song was about doing speed of some sort?
EDIT: Nevermind, checked the lyrics:
I'm on the nightrain
Bottoms up
I'm on the nightrain
Fill my cup
I'm on the nightrain
Ready to crash and burn
I never learn
I'm on the nightrain
I love that stuff
I'm on the nightrain
I can never get enough
I'm on the nightrain
Never to return - no

you're thinking of "Mr Brownstone" although I guess that's probable a horse reference

Back in the 80's, I sold a big alarm system in Ybor City, Tampa, to a new wine brewery (?). The co-owner was super proud that he was the inventor of MD 20/ 20. The place went bust in 6 months, taking with it a lot of Government money. Wines of St. Augustine.

When the word was thunderbird!
Up every morning at the crack of dawn
Nights as short as the days are long life turned out to be another magazine Am Livin' with a stranger now Girl i knew got away somehow She went out with two bit gasoline On the go,back - you know what i mean No when the word was Thunderbird And the price recorded twice Drinkin' wine and lovin' you was fun Ah,but love turned out to be a passin' thing Different bird of a different wing Some damn fool put a dollar twenty nine On a jug of Thunderbird wine And Lord i don't know if i'm gonna make it Don't know if i'll have the strength to take it Everything's hung up in yesterday There's you a secret-minded social girl Takin' short cuts in a woman's world She won't let her hair down when i'm home Society's just slavery And security is killing me I work hard for it but i give it all away If i could go back to yesterdayI love you Billy Joe Shaver!
