Miller Ice

(9)

Which brings us to the Last Miller. It is now 0057 and there is less than a half can remaining. As I sit here staring at this wonderful can I see the 'girl in the moon' which is a Miller trademark. And I wonder: where did this Moon Girl dressed in red and green come from? Is she Al-lat? Or Al-Llat - the Allatu of the Babylonians, formerly worshipped at the Kaaba in Mecca? I don't know.

But I do know this: a 12-pack of Miller will get you slightly higher than a 12-pack of Natural Light. Furthermore I find myself wishing that there was a beer named, Miller Ice, which will get you wasted in a hurry. Note to Miller: if you decide to go beyond mild champagne then I would suggest the name, Miller Ice.
