Your liver will thank you for keeping that image in mind. It will significantly reduce its workload. When I was freshman in college, we had a party........ I think. I remember the first part. Then I remember waking up on the floor the next morning. Nothing in between. Some of the brands we've mentioned were prominent at that party.

LOL! Well, if we're going to trade alcohol stories... There is a German beer called EKU, a doppelboch, crummy as all hell. My roomates at the time and I were quite proud of our expertise with the alcohol, and liked to keep up on the new arrivals at the distributor (this being PA, you had to get cases from a beer distributor.) In any case, we found this brew and bought a case, around $40 so it must be good stuff, right? By God it was horrific. It was so bad, none of us could finish a bottle. As a matter of fact, we kept the case, and proffered a sample to any new face who started hanging about for our parties. The test was if this newbie could finish a bottle of EKU, he obviously had no self-respect and was thrown straight out. We only found one individual, a sorry case if ever there was one, who finished a bottle and actually asked for more. Needless to say, he failed the test. Just for fun, I found this abomination, with attendant "consumer feedback." Pretty funny. tolsun.oulu.fi I especially like this testimonial: "From Bas Kuit, baskuit@hacom.nl in box.hacom.nl I agree with my friend Henk. EKU is the pits. You wouldn't want to pour this piss down the throat of your mother in law. It must have been brewed by Nazis." Derek
