It's like the only way to get your article mentioned is to claim something that is at best tenuously supported by the data. But if you want the actual data we take VISA and Mastercard.

Don't worry duff, I didn't take it that way. I just know where you are coming from. Being a college student I have made a habit myself of being more selective of my sources. Through my university I have the access to peer reviewed academic journals. Articles on "mainstream" websites I usually take at face value, without staking anything on it.

Or do it 'old school' style, from SE Virginia; throw a few salted peanuts in each beer. Salt makes everything taste better.

lucky me! beer don't give me a hang over.

Huffpost doesn't write articles. Huffpost finds articles and then puts up summarizes of them, so that they get site traffic to make money. A nice term for stealing.

When they quote a source, find the source and provide the link directly to that, depriving Huffpost of the revenue.

Huffington Post also doesn't have good editors. I find typographical errors in their articles all the time.

Been doing the 2-1-2-1 etc method for years now. My recovery bounce back isn't what it once was, and adding the water in really makes for a very pleasant next day for me too. (Plus I don't seem to do as much stupid crap as I used to... )

Actually, Craft Beer has kept me from getting "wasted" at the bars for several years now. Ever since Sam Adams came out and all the excellent Craft Beers that have followed I won't buy any of the AMC beers. Now, since the Craft Beers I buy are more expensive and I am a tight-ass, I don't drink the beers as fast as I used to. This has the additional benefit of allowing me to enjoy the taste of the beer that I'm drinking. And, as if that wasn't enough of a benefit, it has given me the ability to see just how stupid my buddies get when they are wasted and know that that was me also several years ago and given me the conviction of never being like that - in public - again.
