Off topic - mileage, but no e9 content!

A recent study conducted by Glasgow University found that the average Scotsman walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study by the Scottish Medical Association found that Scotsmen drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

This means, on average, Scotsmen get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind of makes me proud to be Scottish! :lol:

Some Comparable Investment Advice

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Delta Airlines one year ago, you would have $49.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in AIG one year ago, you would have $33.00 today.

If you had purchased $1,000 of shares in Lehman Brothers one year ago, you would have $0.00 today.

But, if you had purchased $1,000 worth of beer one year ago, drunk all the beer, then turned in the aluminum cans for a recycling refund, you would have received $84.00.

Based on the above, the best current investment plan is to drink heavily & recycle.

It is called the 401-Keg.

Cheers !

I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy :shock:

Except that now aluminum scrap is down in a major way too. A coupe months ago our aluminum scrap went for .70 lb, three weeks ago it was .42 lb, last week it was .12 lb. We now have a pile of aluminum that's waiting for prices to go back up a bit.

These numbers don't take in account the beer consumed in the process!
