Random Wordplay for Wednesday 11/19/14

Black, red or blonde "headed".

Used in a sentence:  "Although it *also* describes the classic triumvirate of Barker's Beauties from 'The Price is Right' when I was younger, this time, I'm using it to refer to the various types of Guinness:  dark, red or blonde 'headed'".

As told to me first by traveler Andy P, Guinness *now* has an American style lager (made in Latrobe PA, of all places, home of the Rolling Rock).  This comes on the heels of Guinness Black, which I have located (and consumed).  And apparently there was a Guinness Red a few years back and I missed it!  (A disappointment for sure ... in case anyone sees any cans in the back of their local cooler [as described by the reviewer in the link below].)

So for all those considering gifts to send me for the holidays this year ... you are on notice ... Guinness Blonde!  And I promise to tell you if drinking it makes me "ditzy" and/or "have more fun".  [Note ... stereotypes are bad.  Unless you aren't blonde, and then stereotypes are funny.]

NOW IN BLONDE!:
