Years and years ago when I still lived up north we used to drive to Thunder Bay to buy a case of Canadian beer in those stubby little bottles.

They'd take your order and your case would come out of the warehouse on one of those roller conveyor things, whatever they're called. Neat!

Don't know why we did that—just an excuse, really, to drive to Canada. Didn't need a passport or a fancy ID in those days.
