"There's a support group for that. It's called EVERYBODY, and they meet at the bar." Drew Carey

Another good Carey quote, that I am unable to find online was  something along the lines of  "If you need a game to enjoy drinking, then you shouldn't be drinking". It was from a stand up performance that Comedy Central plays occasionally.

The reason I bring this up is a recent TIME magazine article (see here) that references the current war on Beirut (AKA Beer Pong).  This is the one and ONLY drinking game I ever enjoyed. It actually takes some skill, sober or not, and it's fun to play. I can definitely understand why college campuses or towns might want to put a cap on the game for safety or noise violation reasons.. but come on.
 
I ALSO find it interesting that this comes up as many colleges and some states (VT) are looking to lower the drinking age to 18 again.  I personally think this could go either way...  I see the dangers, and the possible benefits of this. In reality... kids are going to drink whether or not they are told they can or cant. But I bet its more likely they will drink MORE if they are told that they cannot.  Think about these same kids showing up to college, away from their parents for the first times... free to do whatever they want.  Yeah. Drunk. MIT is a great example of this.

 Anyway, thought the article might be fun for some of you to read. Enjoy.
