P.J. sez...*hiccup*

REPUBLICAN PARTY REPTILE PING!

What is the Republican Party Reptile? It is a creature of the eighties. It's neoconservatism with its pants down around its ankles, the Rehnquist Supreme Court on drugs, a disco Hobbes living without shame or federally mandated safety regulations. The Republican Party Reptile supports a strong defense policy, but sees no reason to conduct it while sober. The RPR believes in minimum government interference in private affairs;unless the government brings over extra girls and some ice. In short, the RPR is the new label that our political spectrum has been crying out for;the conservative with a sense of humor and a healthy dose of depravity.

Kerrys probably for it!

[Happygal]

Ha! I'd say this is something that PJ might support! *LOL*

I guess I'm healthy!!!!!!!!

Now I need to run to the store - no beer in the house :(

According to Walzl, beer reduces the risk of stroke and heart attack, improves circulation, and even acts as an aphrodisiac - if not taken to excess.

It also functions to flush the kidneys. Of course, not all beer is equally good at everything, which is why the health-conscious partaker must strive for diversity. Guinness, for example, turns one into an operatic singer; certain cheap American lagers are suitable for engine cleaner only. Beer is truly a miracle fluid, on the order of water and WD40...

Please add me to the RPR ping list.

British or American pints? Units are important.

Finally a German Politician actually says something I agree with.

[Willie Green]

"People should be able to get prescriptions for beer through the national health system," he said.

Whoa! HOLD ON A MINUTE FOLKS.

STOP!!! It's a TRAP!!!

You DON'T really want to be forced to go to the goobermint to get a "presription" for BEER, do you?

Aaarrrggghhhh!!!

Beer is healthy and good for you, YES!!!

But it should remain freely available over the counter... er.. bar...

NO PRESCRIPTIONS!!!!

[dljordan]

Yeah, but don't order the cans with the little dohickey inside. They taste like crap!

[jpthomas]

Germany also has a government institute that conducts research on how to grind up and stuff a tastier sausage: Institue for Meat Production and Marketing

[Oschisms]

Minister Wolfgang Clement, 64, who can reportedly down a beer in 1.5 seconds

I don't think I could pour it on the ground that fast.

[Darksheare]

Yeah, what he said!

[discostu]

Which reminds me I need to fill my perscription on the way home, NFL season starts today, I'd hate to be caught short of beer.
