Most of the time here (and the US) we get served flat beer (no effervescence) and beer with no head. And the worst way to drink beer is out of a bottle or can.

To stay on the topic of airlines and the "bad after taste that stays" and how that can lead to poor decisions, one only needs to look at the lovely and wonderful Canadian company Bombardier. Oops... I think I just stirred up some angry feelings. Bombardier is mostly unloved by investors and while I will agree that it is mostly deserved since a lot of people lost money on that name, the past should not necessarily determine the current state.
Companies change but emotions often do not. This is unfortunate because investors do better when they park that emotion and trade based on "current" fundamentals and the market the business is engaged in. We can take the reverse scenario. A company like Apple is one of the most loved stocks out there. It's made people a ton of money. But, if one day the iPhone (their core business) loses its leadership behind Samsung that might mean investors need to sell. That past love affair will not make us more money if we continue to buy a declining business. We investors do best when emotions are set aside.

At that time I had about 40 000 shares over 3 accounts. The price between $3- 4 Don't remember exactly and I don't want to know because I don't care. What I do know when stock started tanking at one point I was losing about $ 13000. Sold everything and bought PPL since then up $ 13 000 plus dividends so I made all of it back but the after taste stays. Since they " owe " me money I started to buy them back. Bought 3000 shares for $ 2.81 and this week I am going to buy another 4000 and that is enough for this frustrating dog. The plan is to hold it till they announce 2 cents dividend and hopefully the stock price will reach close to $ 4 . When/ If that happens I will sell everything and will run to the hills. No desire to own the airline company at this time. Non of them are doing great in Canada in States they are doing a little bit better. . Owned Delta airlines in the past and made a some profit there.
Any way that is my plan. GLTA
You got everything right about the beer. When I was vacationing in Czech every day I went for draft beer with my brother in law and friends. It just goes down before you know you are on your fifth beer which is now my limit. At 61 can't do what I used to do when I was 19 , some times with four bodies finishing a keg of beer over night. ( 100 beers half a litre each )
