Got this email I thought I'd share. No idea to the truth of it..........but I like it:

Subject: The Budweiser Story (not a joke)

NOW THAT'S TEAM WORK!!!!

How Budweiser handled those who laughed at those who died on the 11th of September, 2001... Thought you might like to know what happened in a little town north of Bakersfield, California. After you finish reading this, please forward this story on to others so that our nation and people around the world will know about those who laughed when they found out about the tragic events in New York, Pennsylvania, and the Pentagon.

On September 11th, a Budweiser employee was
making a delivery to a convenience store in a California town named
McFarland. He knew of the tragedy that had occurred in New York when he
entered the business to find the two Arabs, who owned the business, whooping and hollering to show their approval and support of this treacherous
attack.

The Budweiser employee went to his truck,
called his boss and told him of the very upsetting event! He didn't feel he
could be in that store with those horrible people. His boss asked him, "Do
you think you could go in there long enough to pull every Budweiser
product and item our beverage company sells there? We'll never deliver to
them again."

The employee walked in, proceeded to pull every
single product his beverage company provided and left with an
incredible grin on his face.

He told them never to bother to call for a
delivery again.

Budweiser happens to be the beer of choice for
that community. Just letting you know how Kern County handled this
situation.

And Now The Rest Of The Story:
It seems that the Bud driver and the Pepsi man
are neighbors. Bud called Pepsi and told him. Pepsi called his boss who
told him to pull all Pepsi products as well!!! That would include
Frito Lay, etc.

Furthermore, word spread and all vendors
followed suit! At last report, the store was closed indefinitely.Good old
American Passive-Aggressive BUTT Whoopin'!


Pass this along, America needs to know that
we're all working together.

God Bless America!!

Kinda believe it.Not knowing of any more events that day would happen.Budweiser pretty big in advertizing in any place they put there product.May not have wanted any negative stuff if the press showed up to talk with those owners and had there signs everywhere.They have a big show down here for the united way every year at there brewery.Must bring in 6 or 700 vehicles.

If I was the Bud man, the store closing would have been the least of their problems...

If it was true it should have gone like this.

The Budweiser employee went to his truck....

and got his gun.

There were reports of Arabs celebrating in small businesses in Baton Rouge. No reason for the people who reported it to lie.

Suddenly, these businesses found themselves with no customers for a couple of days and started saying that someone lied about them.

Then it became an issue of "profiling", so the bleeding hearts gave these people enough business over the next several days to more than make up for their losses.

Also, when I was in Egypt last year, one of the guys had drawn pictures on the wall of planes flying into tall buildings. The British guys over there told me that several of the Muslims over there celebrated when the news reached them, and that's when those pictures were drawn.

And we send these people billions every year.
