St. Patrick’s Day Green Rivers.
St. Patrick’s Day Green Rivers.
One day Dr. Wetbrain was in the Central Hotel bar having a pint of green beer among an overpopulated drunk group of leprechauns and leprechaunettes. Yes, it is March 17th, St. Patrick’s Day. Which made the Doctor think of the green rivers dedicated to this day. The only green water I know about is the swamp I have in the back 40s and has nothing to do with St. Patrick’s Day. Here are his findings.
The most popular green St. Patrick’s Day River is the Chicago River. This festive gimmick was originally launched in 1962 with a few small boats spewing out an oil-based fluorescein green dye. The Chicago River’s fish, otters and environmentalists did not like these toxins at all. In 1966 the dying chemicals changed to a vegetable-based dye. The fish, otters and environmentalists seemed happier.

History of Darts Drinking Game.
Harold and Dr. Wetbrain play darts for drinks…. a lot. Usually when the useless cards are soaking wet with booze and always in Harold’s back yard, early in the morning. 7:15 am and the sun just started to lap up most of the hidden darkness of the summer morning.
Three empty bottles of cheap wine were lying on the crisp, morning dew which blanketed the un-mowed lawn. Half-closed dandelion blooms strewed everywhere.
The dart board is made from a 20-inch-thick, carefully chain-sawed old pine log. Throughout out summer as the pine slab got dry in the heat, the inner age rings started to crack. After some time, the old drunk cracks (Harold and Wetbrain) started using the aged wooden cracks as a scoring grid. Playing darts on this wooden slab worked out great. Harold and the doctor once used the back side of this pine slab. Unfortunately, Billy came over one day. The mooching little punk from next door came over to bum beer and practice his axe throwing skills.
Throwing his axe onto our carefully dried dart board. With deep gashes everywhere on the board, except in the middle, Billy wrecked one side of our precious dart board rendering it useless.
Once again, Billy was banned from Harold’s yard.

Climate Change And The Beer Shortage.
“Harold you are spilling out a 1/8th of a bottle of beer! What are you doing? That’s alcohol abuse.” Dr. Wetbrain yelled.
“Spit, backwash”, Harold remarked.
“That’s no excuse. Don’t you know a beer shortage is coming thanks to climate change?” Wetbrain concluded.
Sure, the barley crop was plentiful at one time until the climate change effect came into view. Drought and heat waves are the main culprits in depleting the barley harvest. Droughts, heat waves, floods, hailstorms, grasshoppers’ migration, wildfires (smoke) all have contributing factors to climate change and the production of the most popular alcohol drink – BEER.

Oldest Wine Found In 8000 Year Old Jars.
Oldest Wine Found In 8000-Year-Old Jars.
Dr. Wetbrain was thinking one day about all the wildlife that enjoy getting drunk. Wild animals were probably getting drunk off fermented fruit long before humans did. Even certain dinosaurs probably got drunk. How long did it take for humans to finally enjoy the indulgence of drunkenness? Or got smart enough.
Recently archaeologists found 8000-year-old clay jars that proves humans were getting drunk since around 5800 to 6000 BC. In November 2017 archaeologists discovered these ancient jars that are around 82 cm in height and 41 cm in width and have carvings of grape clusters and a dancing man. These ancient jars were found about 50 kms from Tbilisi, Russian ruled capital of Georgia, near Persia.
