If you could work from home, you could create beer induced code. Very good work has been produced that way. Getting up to pee constantly slows things down though.

A programmer is a device for converting coffee into code. I think I’ll have to wait ’til end of the day to switch to beer.

Pound coffee all morning and switch to beer at lunch time for the rest of the day. You get the best of both worlds.

The picture is nice, but why is she so unhappy? Is she being held captive? Does Dvorak and Company have some explaining to do?

the Egyptians drank a great deal of beer. I remember reading something about how they brewed it. Here is a link to it.

Of course, we are talking about real beer, not medium dark piss aka Light beer.

Coffee is good but I enjoy it Garfield style, a drop of coffee into a cup of sugar & powdered creamer.

As memory serves, the ancient sumerians drank alot of beer – I wasnt able to find much on it but in all honesty I didnt look all that hard –

#3, Bobbo, that’s the finest link you’ve yet posted. Make mine a Guinness on tap after a night at the scope. [People look at you strangely when you're having a cold one in the morning, but "Astronomers Do It All Night"]

“In fact, beer is sometimes referred to as “liquid bread”.Some sources maintain that filtered beer loses much of its nutrition.””
I got hooked on Hefeweizen while in Germany. Even better than Guinness.

As for the article, I’m in the Army, and I chug coffee. I haven’t even had a sunburn in recent years. I get red a little, but it fades in hours. Even though my arm was in my car window for 6 hours straight three days in a row. On a lighter note, my left arm is six shades darker than my pasty right.

Even in Iraq, where I used no sunscreen, I didn’t have any sunburns. And regular sunburns are the biggest culprit of skin cancer, as that’s when the deepest UV penetration occurs.

Hashers have known of the benefits of beer and exercise for decades.

It’s completely lewd and unscientific research, but what do you expect from a bunch of people with half a mind to hash.

“Now, if they can just find an additional positive factor from beer?”

From wikipedia:

“Brewer’s yeast is known to be a rich source of nutrients; therefore, as expected, beer can contain significant amounts of nutrients, including magnesium, selenium, potassium, phosphorus, biotin, and B vitamins. In fact, beer is sometimes referred to as “liquid bread”.Some sources maintain that filtered beer loses much of its nutrition.”
