~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sometimes...when I reflect back on all the beer I drink, I feel shamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."
~ Jack Handy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day. "
~Frank Sinatra
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"When I read about the evils of drinking...I gave up reading."
~ Henny Youngman
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not."
~ Stephen Wright
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk, we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin. When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. Sooooo, let's all get drunk and go to heaven!"
~ Brian O'Rourke
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."
~ Benjamin Franklin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Without question, the greatest invention in the history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does not go nearly as well with pizza."
~ Dave Barry

BEER: HELPING UGLY PEOPLE HAVE SEX SINCE 3000 B.C.!!!

Remember "I" before "E", except in Budweiser.

To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

And saving the best for last, as explained by Cliff Clavin, of Cheers. One afternoon at Cheers, Cliff was explaining the Buffalo Theory to his buddy Norm. Here's how it went:

"Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's why you always feel smarter after a few beers"

Those are great. Whenever I'm enjoying a few micro brews and have to excuse myself due to a full bladder, I refer to it as "Making Budweiser". :beer

I think that I shall never hear
a poem lovelier than beer.
The brew that Joe's Bar has on tap
with golden base and snowy cap.
The foamy stuff I drink all day,
till my memory floats away.
Poems are made by fools, I fear,
but only Schlitz can make a beer.

-Mad Magazine (ca 1962?)

I attended UW-Stout for the reason I thought it was named after beer. Actually UW-Leinenkugels would have been more accurate. Best 6-7 years of my life.

I demand that the moderator remove the previous picture. Such horrible scenes of highway carnage have no place here. I'm sure that I'll be traumatized by such grotesque visions... So much destruction... Dead and broken beers everywhere....what a waste.

Will keep you just like me from goin' insane

'Cuz you know
Beer is good for you
Beer is good for you (yes it's true)
Beer is good for you

YEAAAHH keep off crack, speed, smoke
You'll just get dumber with ev'ry toke
Rocks in your head
No wonder it's called stoned
Your heart beats fast
Eyes red as hell
The monkey just gets bigger
'Till your money, lungs and mind will all be blown

But you know
Beer is good for you
Beer is good for you (yes it's true)
Beer is good for you

Beer is good for you
Beer is ggod for you (here's to you) (UURRRRRP)
Beer is good for you

Dope carnivals inside your head
Can turn into freak shows instead
Makes every American whore known to you
Beautiful and exotic
Paranoiac and psychotic
There's nothin' left but sawdust when it's through

Hey don't feel bad don't feel blue
'Bout all this jive I'm layin' on you
I'm just tryin' to make a point and make it clear
No don't get angry don't lose hope
Just because you can't use dope
You can always make a real good case a' beer

'Cuz you know
Beer is good for you
Beer is good for you (yes it's true)
Beer is good for you

Beer is good for you
Beer is good for you (here's to you ) (UUURRRRRP)
Beer is good for you

Dark or light it's as brown as honey
Worth it's weight in gold 'r' money
Oh baby that beer is good for you
Gives yer tongue an tingle and your mind a buzz
And wake up in the morning with a mouth full a' fuzz
Oh baby that beer is GOOD fer you!

And you know
Beer is good for you
Beer is good for you (yes it's true) (UUURRRRRP)
Beer is good for you

Not as good as sex
But it's better than jail
Hookers cost but so does bail

So tell the man behind the bar

And you know

Oh, Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Both Schoppenhauer and Hagel
And Wittgenstein was a boozy swine
Who was just a shloshed as Schlagel

There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya' 'bout the raisin' of the wrist
Socrates himself was permanently pissed

John Stuart Mill of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away,
Half a crate of whisky every day
Aristotle, Aristotle, was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am"

Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker but a bugger when he's pissed

"The Philosophers Song" by Monty Python
