    I ponder as I sit here. Just a thought.

    • If beer is bread in a bottle, is beer bread? Water, malt, yeast, hops. Pretty close.

      If if 6 beers makes you happy, and 12 beers makes you drunk, do 18 beers make you a happy drunk?

      If you are not a bunny rabbit, why for hast though long ears and a fuzzy powder puff tail"?(quote from elmer fudd, after he had 18 beers)

      Beer. Its whats for dinner (slogan for the national beer council)

      Did we give up when the germans bombed pearl harbor............hell no........when the going gets tough.......................the tought get going....(One drunk Belushi, in Animal House)

    so, I will reply to myself:

    Sometimes when I reflect back on all the beer I drink I feel ashamed. 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."

    I love beer,

    I remain,

    I say "drink up!" Keep the country music songwriters, brewelry workers, detox center workers, and liver transplant medical staff, and ugly women all employed!

    Give me your beer quotes!

    Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut.

    If God had intended us to drink beer, He would have given us stomachs.

    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.

    A conversation with clyde!

    No animal ever invented anything as bad as drunkenness - or as good as a drink.

    A beer prayer

    Our lager,
    Which art in barrels,
    Hallowed be thy drink.
    Thy will be drunk, (I will be drunk), At home as it is in the pub.
    Give us this day our foamy head, And forgive us our spillages, As we forgive those who spill against us.
    And lead us not to incarceration, But deliver us from hangovers. For thine is the beer, The bitter, The lager.
    Forever and ever,
    Barmen.

    It's me again, Margaret

    All right, brain, I don't like you and you don't like me - so let's just do this and I'll get back to killing you with beer.

    I used to like it - too much! Had to quit 14 years ago, and the first thing I noticed was far less contact with the police and more money in my pocket! I quit falling down so much also. [beer]

    I like beer once in awhile and I like a good glass of white wine. Again on a weekend or such when I'm home.

    I don't go out and drink anymore and I don't bother to get drunk having worked in a bar on the weekends for about 5 years and seeing all the drunks (and the cops that went with it).

    I also remember being married to an alcoholic and you know what - I think I'll just stick with an occasional glass of beer or wine - it's a lot easier on my wallet. :D

    I'm not much on beer, just an occasional one. I like the hard stuff. I don't drink that often either, but just every now and then. More of a social drinker, and I prefer to drink with a fine cigar.
