Man, It's your choice but you're missing a thing. :D

ehh, I've probably drank more than 90% of the people I know. It's really not that great. It loses it's fun quickly. Plus it makes you feel like **** too often. There are many things that are much better than alcohol. Don't get me wrong. I still drink, but nowhere near as much as I used to when I was in college.

Dogfish Head Beer. World Wide Stout and the 120 Minute IPA are both ~20%. They vary each year when they are released.

They have a ton of different beer. http://www.dogfish.com/brewings/

I'm glad to see that at least one other person here appreciates good beer. :) I think I have two or three bottles of the 120 minute in my cellar right now. Have you had any beer from Michigan's microbreweries?

You're right, but you USED to drink that much. When the fun part goes away you stop.

+1 on this. I used to drink epicly, and as a result, had some real adventures, and many a night hugging the toilet. Now I'm a bit older though I hate overdoing it. I'll have about 5 in a night at most now, and I have a great time without the hangovers.

My view on it now is that if you need that much alcohol to have a good night out, you're doing it wrong.

Congrats on your first beer! I bet you that won't be the last!

P.S. If you want some hairs on your chest, see if you can find some Stroh. This stuff gives me the giggles :wacko:

Was it real beer or American beer? I had my first can of beer when I was about 4. I used to drink Bass shandy back then too :laugh: I had my first pint when I was about 12.

To the OP: why would you decide not to drink when going to college? Enjoying fine alcoholic drinks is not the same as binge drinking. If you decide not to get drunk ever then that is very respectable... but there's no reason to not enjoy beer.

Similar to a melonball

2 oz Midori? melon liqueur

1 oz vodka

pineapple juice or orange juice

Pour the melon liqueur and vodka into an ice-filled highball glass. Fill with pineapple juice, or orange juice.

      "to in-game content custom-made for the brands" Which EA will turn around and charge customers extra for in an attempt to double dip.

    • NirLauncher 1.30.24

      NirLauncher 1.30.24 by Razvan Serea NirLauncher is a suite of more than 200 of NirSoft's excellent portable freeware Windows utilities, and provides an interface that makes it easy to find and launch the tools you need. Which works for us - because there's something here for everyone. Have you forgotten a password stored in your browser or email client, for instance? Recovery tools here may be able to find them for you. Maybe you'd like to check your hard drive health? A disk tool will display its S.M.A.R.T. data (if the drive supports this), so you can view read/ write errors, temperature and other useful details. Is your system unstable? The System Utilities section includes several tools that can help to explain why your PC might be crashing. And there are a host of other programs on offer in categories like "Network Monitoring", "Web Browser Tools", "Video/ Audio Related Utilities", "Outlook/ Office Utilities" and more. Please note, perhaps because a few of these tools can be used maliciously (the password revealers, say), some antivirus programs will flag them as threats. We've never had a problem with any NirSoft tool, though, and you can read more on this issue at the author's site. NirLauncher is an excellent set of free tools, and a must-have for everyone's portable troubleshooting toolkit. NirLauncher Features: NirLauncher can be used from USB flash drive without need of any installation. NirLauncher and all the utilities in the package are completely freeware, without any Spyware/Adware/Malware. This package doesn't contain any 3-party software, toolbars, Web browser plugins, or other unwanted surprises. It will not install any software on your system and it will not change your Web browser homepage or other settings on your system. NirLauncher package includes variety of tools that you may need for your daily computer use, including utilities to recover lost passwords, to monitor your network, to view and extract cookies, cache, and other information stored by your Web browser, to search files in your system, and more... For every utility in the package, you can easily run it, view the help file, or jump to the Web page of the utility. When using it from USB flash drive, the configuration of every utility is saved into .cfg file on the flash drive. On x64 systems, NirLauncher automatically run the x64 version of the utility, when there is a separated x64 version. NirLauncher also allows to add more software packages in additional to the main NirSoft package. NirLauncher allows you generate plugin files for BartPE (Launcher -> Generate BartPE Plugin Files), so you can easily use the utilities of NirSoft from a bootable live windows CD. Additional packages (Piriform, SysInternals...) and instructions are available on the Nirlauncher download page. Note: This zip file below is password-protected. The password for extracting the files is nirsoft9876$ Download: NirLauncher 1.30.24 | 39.8 MB (Freeware) Link: NirLauncher Home Page | Screenshot Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Euro-Office must default to ODF to be considered "genuinely European", LibreOffice argues

      By MikeK13 · Posted

      What people who support this position of LibreOffice do not understand is that EuroOffice is not made to appease the open source enthusiasts (I am also one) and evangelists. EuroOffice was made because some European companies wanted independence from Microsoft Office Suite, which is something installable on your computer. This move to independence was pushed by public institutions and governments in Europe, as well. Using a proprietary FORMAT as default, does not make you dependent on MS. The actual program does. A format can be changed with a simple update in the future in a dystopian world where MS would manipulate the format to lock others out. However, using MS Office proprietary format, guarantees that all the current documents used by companies, organizations, institutions, etc, will be compatible with EuroOffice and the suite will have the best chances at adoption, especially by slow moving organizations like governments and the public sector. It is as simple as that. For the same reason, even the UI is incredibly similar to MS Office. For the same reason (adoption) the choice was made to be open source. Not because EU particularly loves open source ideologically, but because it gives the best starting point to create trust in the project and amass developers and contributions to the project quickly, to catch up with proprietary projects like MS Office. I don't understand how people don't realize it.
