I did my yard work yesterday, beerless, but my Borders were hot after playing in the newly-mown grass. Anyone? Bueller? Hello? ---

Ah, to be young and eternal again… On the plus side, acute alcohol poisoning is difficult with beer unless you try real hard. It is probably good that the young are attracted to beer - the Training Wheels of alcohol consumption. ---

It’s probably some lite macrobrew, so he consumed less alcohol than one good IPA and fewer calories than if he had lemonade. Sent from my LG-V410 using Tapatalk ---

Yesterday I went to work from 9 to 1, returned home and mowed from 1:30 to 4:30. Then I showered and went to the bar, arriving right at the start of happy hour. I drank Bell’s Brewery’s Le Pianiste on draft, a Bière de Garde style beer. It was on special at $5 a glass, happy hour kicked it down to $2.50. They were practically paying me to drink.😛 How many beers did I drink? A gentleman never tells. I’m no gentleman, I just don’t remember. ---

I’m more impressed by the 7 hot dogs than by the 12 beers. That’s a LOT of hot dogs. ---

I drink too much. About two liters a day. But diet soda, not alcohol. I still think I’m probably setting myself up for some future bad health condition. ---
