I don't think there's really a way to do this, since federal taxes are paid directly to the fed without state involvement. This is just to poke the bear, which I am all for.

London, Salisbury/Stonehenge, and Liverpool. 10 days total. I've always been a bit of an Anglophile, a big history nerd, and a huge Beatles fan. I can't wait!

It's largely a myth that ancient and medieval people brewed beer for lack of fresh drinking water, kind of like the "spices were for eating rotten meat" myth. People have always known how to find fresh water or preserve meat.

The main reason people have always brewed beer and wine is because they're good. Small beer was in fact made for funsies.

And, interestingly, in certain places and times there was also a cultural reason as drinking those was higher status than water which was "for commoners."

Minimalism.

It's everywhere from company logos, to fast food interior design, and now the vexillology community swears by minimalist flag designs.

Hotter take: pronounce it KILL-o-meters and not kill-AH-meters.
