So, I have been on Facebook for about two weeks now and I love it.  I am finding friends from high school that I haven't heard from in awhile.  Well, anywhere from 9-19 years now.  Wow, I am getting old.

This evening I am mourning the loss of my college buddy. 

 

Through thick and thin, the good times and the sucky ones too you were always there for me.  I fondly remember you at Double Dave's in the summers being your vibrant self.  And those years after college hanging out at the bars with me while I kicked butt playing darts.  You were there to celebrate my life's successes, and I will truly miss you.  I still remember the last time I saw you in your pomegranite pink...Good-bye my sweet dear ZIMA - (1992-2008).

Apparently Miller-Coors announced on October 20, 2008 that they were discontinuing ZIMA.  I missed the memo on that.  I discovered tonight that it was discontinued and had my last ZIMA with a splash of Pomegranite juice earlier.  I started drinking ZIMA when it was introduced in 1992 and have been a loyal fan for the past 16 years.  Since I don't like beer or the ZIMA wantabees, I guess I will go out tomorrow and buy some Vodka.  Maybe if I mix vodka and Sprite it will taste like my ZIMA...probably not.  Wine and Martinis it is then...

 

Farewell Sweet ZIMA.
