Two Beers and a Pretzel

In 1996 I took over the webmaster duties for the Greater Cincinnati Aquarium Society.

Back then, the browser wars were in full effect, so every website had one of two icons at the bottom of the page that said “Best Viewed with Netscape” or “Best Viewed using Internet Explorer”.

Eventually, I bought the domain name and held it for a number of years – until finally finding an appropriate use for it with this travel blog.

So as you browse the internet, just remember that the only way to truly enjoy the menagerie that is the world wide web is with Two Beers and a Pretzel!!!
