Beer Train Takes the Strain Out of Commuting

One night a week they had free beer for everyone, all you could drink. There was just one catch. No one was allowed to leave the bar and no one was allowed to use the restrooms. As soon as someone did one of those, the free beer ended.

Well, the pointers in the audience could use a gizmo called a "Motorman's Friend" to help out with the restroom part. It looks like a big hip flask, has a strap for your leg, and has plumbing that fits the male of the species. Great for those long trips when you just can't stop.

It wouldn't be me incurring the ire of the crowd by spending a penny first.

I wonder what's considered "locally brewed"? Some microbrew? One of the big breweries like Kirin or Sapporo?

Dang straight they would lose money on us.

Sapporo Reserve is a fairly tasty brew.

I haven't drank Asahi in years or Kirin. I drank enough of them while stationed on the Rock.

Obviously its not the bullet train.

All the beer you can drink? They'd lose money on us

You got that right - and the no potty thing - no problem for me. I apparently have a hollow leg. I can drink for well more than 2 hours with out having to hit the room!!!
