1. USA - by a fricking mile btw. This wasn't the case 10 years ago, but in the last 10 years the craft brew movement has rocked the us. Almost every other country has one type of beer they do well, we do every type well. 2. Belgium 3. UK 4. Ireland 5. CZ...

its a good buy. the issue I think is the barriers to entry for competitors is very low. Although Google has great channels to deliver the "deals" to it. Nice tie up IMHO, although $6B seems pretty steep purchase price...

Posted by Monkey on 11/29/10 at 2:58 pm
you can buy a tv online and then find someone local to install it, that is what my parents did. they were very pleased but end spending way too much on the install (like $600). It looks absolutely great and is an amazing layout for a tv but I couldn't believe they spent that much to have their tv ...
[quote]I'd be really surprised if it wasn't worth it to move with a 25% increase in pay.[/quote] I wouldn't be surprised, although it depends on where in texass and where in california.
