Alcohol
Consumption -- FDA Warnings...
Due

the FDA's suggestion that the following warning

WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may leave you wondering what the hell happened to
your bra.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may make you think you are whispering when you are
not.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol is a major factor in dancing like an idiot.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may cause you to tell your friends over and over
again that you love them.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may cause you to think you can sing.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may lead you to believe that ex-lovers are really
dying for you to telephone them at four in the morning.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may make you think you can logically converse with
members of the opposite sex without spitting.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may make you think you have mystical Kung Fu powers,
resulting in you getting your ass kicked.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may cause you to roll over in the morning and see
something really scary.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol is the leading cause of inexplicable rug burns on the
forehead/knees.
WARNING:

smarter, faster and better looking than most people.
WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may lead you to believe you are invisible.
WARNING:

WARNING:
The consumption of alcohol may cause a disturbance in the time-space continuum,
whereby gaps of time may seem to literally disappear.
