Better than my reason:
Drink! It makes everyone around funnier, more intelligent and better looking.
"what is the molten liquor?
what gets you drunker quicker?
what comes in bottles or in cans?
Its BEER!
I could kiss and hug it
BEER
But I'd rather chug it
BEER
Makes me think Im a man!"
- The beer song, weird Al
Tom T. Hall:
I like beer It makes me a jolly good fellow
I like beer It helps me unwind and sometime it makes me feel mellow
(makes him feel mellow)
Whiskeys too rough
Champaign cost too much
vodka puts my mouth in gear
This little refrain should help me explain
as a matter of fact I like beer
My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
I'm wearing a suit and a tie
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
When I yell when the waiter walks by
(Chorus)
Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
and I went to a place so sublime
the water was clear and it tasted like beer
then they turned it all into wine (ahhhh)
(Chorus)
(Yes he likes beer)

What the hell, does this only happen in America? I constantly see [b]one guddammit shoe lying beside the side of the interstate highways when driving most any where. One shoe!
Like some dude is driving down the road, looks down at his feet and says to himself "What was I thinking?! I'm not gonna need that damn thing". Kicks the shoe off, reaches down, picks it up and flings it our the window.
Huh? Go get your f'ng shoe...[/b]
Maybe 'shoe on the highway' is an American equivalent of this?
