    You think they might also mention how the empty hotels on the Gulf Coast are contributing to full hotels in Orlando as thousands of families have shifted their vacations this year. Hint to USA Today: the same thing happened in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.

    Part of what I love doing on my vacation is relaxing on my balcony overlooking Bay Lake, while I kick back a couple of $5.25 beers. I wouldn't give that up. As a matter fact I recorded a whole tape of my view up there. When I miss the WL I break out my tape, and pop a couple of tabs on some cool ones.

    >> It was!! The DD's were tired early one night so we went back. DH is watching tv & says what's that loud noise. I whipped open the drapes & said " the MK fireworks"!! <<

    That's why I always request the main courtyard view, South wing 5th floor. It's great for viewing the ELP also.

    Gritty McDuff's Brewing Company is a microbrewery with locations in Portland, Freeport, and Auburn, Maine.

    Gritty's began as a brewpub in Portland, originally founded in 1988. In 1995, a second location with a larger microbrewery facility was opened in Freeport. A third brewpub was opened in Auburn in 2005.

    Gritty's has frequently been awarded the titles of "Maine's Best Brew Pub", "Best Maine Microbrew" and "Best Bar" in statewide polls. Gritty's ales have been repeat winners at the annual Real Ale Festival in Chicago and have also appeared as Featured International Selections at the Great British Beer Festival.[citation needed]

    Gritty's has created much discussion[citation needed] with its "over the line" approach to radio and TV advertising. These outrageously humorous and edgy spots, conceived and produced by the Maine creative agency Big Moose Media, spoof subject matter from politics and religion to terrorism. One character created for Gritty's, Eben, has quickly become a regional success in his own right.[citation needed]

    I love Ale, and Google.
