Uncle Charlie strikes me as a surly and well seasoned drinkin’ man, a stocky type with big, meaty fists you would count on to have your back in a bar brawl. On the other hand, Maynard G abides more closely to a dudeist life view which is in itself a most worthy pursuit.


After careful deliberation, it is my judgment that Uncle Charlie would not be tolerant toward any form of recreational drug use whatsoever, thereby disqualifying him from consideration. Like, completely squaresville.

You don't think Uncle Charlie may have chased a dragon once or twice?

Couldn’t rule it out. It’s quite possible too Uncle Charlie was discharged from the navy because he liked the smell of bunker oil just a little too much.

If I remember correctly, Uncle Charlie was a Merchant Mariner, not a Navy Man

Beer with my great grandfather mainly becuase I'm not a WWII buff, damned if I'll drink with a politician and I'm not very scandinavian.

And you must say why. Or so the Germans would have us believe.

Beer and whiskey with Patsy Cline isn’t an option? That gal knew how to cuss and drink.

Good point, I should have made one for country singers.

OK...

Whiskey with Hank Williams senior

Tequila with Johnny Cash (in his drinking days)

Mead with a viking
I never got to meet any of my great grandfathers. So I'd pick that. But which one? Also, would I be able to understand the German one? Or for that matter, the English one? Or the Irish one? (I think maybe Irish, by the name.) And I have no idea what the other one was, but the name sounds kind of German.
