Damn! I meant to brew a beer today, but I have no money and the closest homebrew supply store is about an hour drive away.

Just have to drink a commercial beer, I guess!

In Heaven there is no beer / That's why we drink it here / And when we're gone from here / our friends will be drinking all the beer!

Sing Glorious! Victorious! / One keg of beer for the four of us / And it's glory be to God, that there are no more of us / For one of us could drink it all alone!

Damn near / Pass the beer / to the rear of the Squadron!

@ Salanis

Just curious, where did you learn that first drinking song in your post?

From my dad. It's all one song. I gather he learned it while he was at the Air Force Academy.

Why do you ask?

Tommorrow (Dec 6th but close to 7th), in Detroit, there is a pretty good annual party known as, "The G.B.O.P.H.D.Party" or

Get Bombed on Pearl Harbor Day

Thanks Wally! It’s my wife’s birthday today and she said she always wanted something historically cool on her birthday. Funny, she was 21 when we started dating too…

And now the “33” on all those Rolling Rock bottles makes sense.

In reply to Salanis:

There was a local comedian in S. California who toured all the frats and other similar locations with a road show. Basically played the piano, had songs with distorted lyrics and drank two beers faster than you could blink. I followed the guy around for years as an unpaid co-comedian, the show being the audience participation tyep. I credit him with my current sense of humor and drinking ability.
