“adding that the precise cause of Gracia’s death hadn’t been determined.”

Of course, not until they know what brand of beer he comsumed.

I'm betting Old Milwaukee or Keystone Light. Any of that would kill me.

In Isaiah the KJV condemns "masters of wine." The NASV translates it as "heroes of wine."

God endorsed consumption of alcoholic beverages (Deut 14) and recommended the euphoric properties of alcohol (Prov 31), but these drinking contests were condemned, as drunkenness. (Cf Prov 23)

Obviously a very good thing that you never invited him over, Gunner.

And everything is bigger in Texas, even the liquid lunches. ;-p

Years ago I was in the ER and I could hear some God awful retching and puking coming from a few partitions down. A guy had eaten an entire 13 pound ham..

Yesterday I almost died from not drinking beer.

We were at a nearby mall when I noticed they were selling the non-alcohol version of the beer I like that is not so easy to find, so I bought two large bottles.

My women folk decided on a tour of the local playgrounds. It was sunny and hot, for the next few hours I lugged around two heavy bottles of beer hallucinating that they were ice cold. It was like being shipwrecked - water water everywhere but not a drop to drink. Thought I was going to die!

Finally got home and had ice-cream. But today! Today the German Women’s team is playing Italy in Quarter Finals and the beer really will be ice cold!

Salt is an emetic. Thirteen pounds of ham would contain more than enough salt to cause eructation.
