Liquid bread huh, I wonder what his wife thinks about this.

[DannyTN]

So he’s giving up his liver?

[Red Badger]

Now that’s pretty good! :-)

Well in heaven there is no beer.
That's why we drink it here.

[QBFimi]

The 46 days of Lent, huh?

Real biblical scholar.

The Breakfast of Champions: Cold pizza and Budweiser.

It would be natures most perfect food if it had fiber.
That’s why I mix my morning beer with tomato juice!

“ERRRRPPP!!!” - my standard comment on a beer thread.

(Plug) There is nothing so good as Coors Light in that nifty screwtop 16 oz. can.

Neat jingle, have to remember it.

He’s drinking on the Sundays too. 6 weeks + 4 days = 46.

[KrisKrinkle]

Does he intend to drive or is he going to stagger to everywhere he wants to go?

Depends on how fast he drinks the beer. The liver takes approximately one hour to metabolize one ounce of alcohol (about 28 grams). The average 12-ounce beer contains 14 grams of alcohol so about 1/2 ounce. This would take the liver roughly a half hour to metabolize.

So if he spaces out a glass of beer every two hours or so, it will be plenty of time for the liver to metabolize the alcohol and get about a hour and a half of rest.

Or he could choose to have two beers every four hours. This would give the liver three hours of rest for each one hour of work.

I assume eight hours of sleep a day so during sleeptime, the liver will get an extra long rest.

So this could be safely done. Maybe a schedule could go something like this:

7AM (Breakfast) - Two beers
11AM (Lunch) - Two beers
3PM (Snack) - One beer
7PM (Dinner) - Two beers

11PM (Bedtime) - One beer

That would be eight 12-oz beers per day. Caloric level will average around 1,200 per day. Definitely enough calories to survive for 40 days but the man will be hungry!

And now corn don’t grow at all on rocky top
Dirt’s too rocky by far
And that’s why all the folks on rocky top
Drink their corn from a jar

That’s called a Michelada! I usually wait until mid morning, though.

Ah, retirement!

[Cletus.D.Yokel]

I used to call it a “Bloody Mike” but since the last FLOTUS, that leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

[Abathar]

LA beer of course...
