Raise a pint today

[Cheesefood]

Today, in 1933, Prohibition ended.

Raise a pint in honor of this historic day.

Yeah but homebrewing wasn't legalized for another 45 years.

I thought it ended on December 5th, 1933.

Then my "Today in History" widget on my Google homepage is wrong.

So? This is an excuse to raise a pint!
Like we need an excuse...

I'll toast this occasion later today.

Wow, this explains a lot then!

Today is a very special day for my family. Today is my wife's birthday, her brother's birthday, and my first born son's birthday. It's like the universe is trying to tell me something!

SWEET!

Once I get off of this 12 hour shift in hell, I'll tip a pint (or two) of some good stuff.

Dude,
How are you able to get to HBT at work? Where I'm at the system blocks it because it is alcohol related. It pissed me off because I enjoyed looking at it during lunch.

Ours goes up and down. Sometimes we have it, sometimes we don't.

Yet we have online colleges that are blocked. I can surf beer making all day, but I can't go to school. Unreal.

It's also the birthday of my ex-girlfriend, ex-roommate and ex-girl-who-was-aa-friend-but-I-wanted-to-hump, and Michael Jordan.
