Helping Weather the Recession

These gents have performed a nice public service. Scary at parts, but a nice service nonetheless: [Cheap Booze Taste Test](http://www.zug.com/live/82078/Crappy-Consumer-Reports-Cheap-Booze-Taste-Test.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com). Some of the best booze pictures I've seen lately and very good--if at times off-color--narrative. Samples:

OLDE ENGLISH 800\. Price: Just $0.99 for a 24 oz. tallboy, although if you're going to be out in public we'd recommend springing for the more classically known 40 oz bottle.

COLT 45\. It's a cool $0.99 for 24 ounces of whatever the hell is in there, and it comes with the class that only Billy Dee Williams can bring to the table.

MORGAN DAVID 20/20\. Morgan David, a.k.a. "Mad Dog," is available in a variety of flavors and colors that look nothing like wine at all, and a giant bottle comes over to ruin your night for only $3.29\. Sure, that's a significant step up from the $0.99 tallboys, but you're paying for class. One important factor to consider is getting just the right neon color to accentuate your eyes.

Keep 'Em Drunk and Pregnant

[A study found that the bones of women who drink beer regularly are stronger, making them less likely to suffer from osteoporosis](http://www.independent.ie/lifestyle/independent-woman/health-fitness/beer-could-stop-bones-going-brittle-1859523.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com). Of course, drunk women also get pregnant more often, and pregnancies deplete bone mass, so maybe it just all evens out.

Drunken Mailbag

[Sent from a TDE reader](http://www.americanpapist.com/2006/08/blessing-for-beer-from-rituale-romanum.html?ref=thedailyeudemon.com):

> Bless, O Lord, this creature beer, that Thou hast been pleased to bring forth from the sweetness of the grain: that it might be a salutary remedy for the human race: and grant by the invocation of Thy holy name, that, whosoever drinks of it may obtain health of body and a sure safeguard for the soul. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.

Unrelated: [The talented Tim Jones is selling an original painting on eBay](http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=280386517472&ssPageName=ADME:L:LCA:US:1123&ref=thedailyeudemon.com). $399 starting bid. Worth a look. If you don't think you want to bid, drink a couple of Olde English 800s and think about it again!
