;’) The best part is, beer was invented about 5000 years before someone invented cups, so the cavemen had to guzzle it straight from the still. ;’)

Interesting visual comes to mind.
Ogg & Gogg hard at work chipping out a large stone vat to keep their beer in.
Ogg watches Gogg and suddenly sees a bamboo, maybe something else, stick is hollow in the middle.
Insert light bulb above Oggs' head.
Next pic, Ogg is chopping a larger bamboo/wood piece and making a cup.
Beer...The Mother of Invention!
Remembering the inventiveness of dope smokers making pipes and roach clips, I don't think it took 5000 yrs before the "cup" made its appearance...;)
