No wonder I like reading Eric Scheske so much. I always thought beer was a contemplative aid without having the audacity of saying so. But he does in this column.
I can also relate to that article because after years of having a smaller-than-average television screen, my wife went and bought me a much bigger screen as a Christmas gift this year.Eric's a lawyer, so you can't sing this of him, but Ken Mellon's country song is excellent anyway:
His daddy sent him to college to get a degree
but he spent his whole tuition on beer and whiskey
He never cracked a book but he could pop a top
He was livin' it up while his grades dropped.
Refrain:
He'll never be a lawyer 'cuz he can't pass a bar
But he could make a livin' playing his guitar
He might be a politician or a movie star
but he'll never be a lawyer cuz he can't pass a bar. (them's true words!)
If they turned a honkytonk into a school
he'd have a masters in darts, a PhD in pool
If his thirst for education matched his taste for wine
He'd be a judge in just a matter of time
REF: He'll never be a lawyer...
