<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.beerhuntermovie.com/" target="_blank">Beer Hunter: The Movie</a></p>
<p>Michael Jackson, beloved beer journalist, inspired thousands of brewers and beer enthusiasts with his books and television series, &#8220;The Beer Hunter.&#8221; He achieved cult status in the U.S., but many don&#8217;t realize his fame within the world of whiskey writing and tasting.</p>
<p>Filmmaker J.R. Richards traveled extensively with Michael throughout the United States and Europe, filming Michael as he got the story behind the world&#8217;s greatest beer and whiskey. Through this footage and interviews with leading brewers and beer enthusiasts, we are treated to an intimate picture of Michael: his enigmatic personality, his extraordinary life, his remarkable contributions, and his secret struggle with Parkinson&#8217;s Disease.</p>
<p>Set to release in the fall of 2010 in conjunction with the Great American Beer Festival in Denver, proceeds from the film will benefit the National Parkinson&#8217;s Foundation, and the complete library of edited footage will be available to the public on DVD and online at www.beerhuntermovie.com. Feel free to contact us to make a tax-deductible charitable donation to support the film and the Parkinson&#8217;s Foundation, and feel free to contact us with your footage, photos, and memories of Michael.</p></blockquote>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you had purchased $1000.00 of Nortel stock one year ago, it would now be worth $49.00.</p>
<p>With Enron, you would have $16.50 left of the original $1000.</p>
<p>With WorldCom, you would have less than $5.00 left.</p>
<p>If you had purchased $1000.00 of Delta Air Lines stock you would have<br />
$49.00 left.</p>
<p>If you had purchased United Airlines, you would have nothing left.</p>
<p>But, if you had purchased $1000.00 worth of beer one year ago, drank all<br />
the beer, then turned in the cans for recycling, you would have $214.00..</p>
<p>Based on the above, the best current investment advice is to drink<br />
heavily and recycle.</p>
<p>This is called the 401-Keg Plan.</p>
