Anthropocentric Global Dehydration Must Be Stopped

Finally, some science put to good use!
Researchers at Granada University in Spain have come across a discovery that will undoubtedly please athletes and sports enthusiasts - a pint of beer post-workout or match is better at rehydrating the human body than water.

Professor Manuel Garzon, a member of Granada's medical faculty, made the finding after tests on 25 students over several months. Researchers believe that it is the sugars, salts, and bubbles in a beer that may help people absorb fluids more quickly.
Lance and I will soon be embarking on the good ship Entrepreneur. Lance gets to pick the scantily clad Rule 5 spokeswoman. We will soon be multi-bazillionaires if the Trog doesn't drink up the profits.

Lance, get a grip, man. It's you and me... she'll probably pay us.

But when she wins a race she can say, "I prehydrated with a couple of Badger Beers, Burri-Style Swiss Ale."

Doug,

Thanks!

You gotta update your user profile. It doesn't even have The Daley Gator included.

Oops!

I don't think they will include Word Press sites.

"...she'll probably pay us."

Not if she can afford bodyguards.

Steve: A bit off-topic, but Lance says that you and the missus are celebrating an anniversary. Congratulations! Me and Mrs. Paco celebrated number 31 this year; which one are you working on?

Steve Burri said...

Paco,

Thanks. It's our 11th. I didn't get married until I was 46.

You're nearing your 31st. By the youthfulness of your writing I wouldn't have known that you were much older than that period!

Paco said...

I'm 53; you know, practically waiting for the end.

Mrs. Paco and I got married pretty young (we were both 22).

Well, then, from now on I will consider your blog, Paco Viejo Enterprises.

Careful, boy. I wield a mean walker...
