ACCUMULATING PERIPHERALS

This has been a weird day. First David Brooks runs a column arguing that behavioral geneticists will soon be predicting everything about human behavior are nowhere near explaining very much about human behavior, and probably never will be. Then – even more unbelievably – the great Scott LeMieux writes a post that can only be described as ignorant. He claims that InBev, the Belgian company that’s just taken over Anheuser-Busch, brews no tasty brands of beer.

Seriously, this is one gigantic mountain of crap. Well, Boddington’s is OK, although when I feel like the genre I prefer Old Speckled Hen, if only for those cool coasters with the wolf in a suit.

This is just ridiculous. Hoegaarden? Leffe? If I didn’t know better I’d think this man had never been to the Low Countries.
