St. Patrick's Day LIVE BLOG

10:06 AM - This is my first attempt at a live blog.  I figured St. Patrick's Day would be a good challenge.  Obviously I'll update throughout the day as my drink total climbs and my ability to function declines.  I'll be taking pictures of all the drinks, but since I'll be updating from my phone I may have to edit them in later.  Regardless, stay tuned throughout the day, it should be fun!

10:27 AM - Here's a shot of me and my girlfriend before the festivities unfold.  I'm sure this will be a good comparison later in the day.


10:35 AM - First drink of the day.  Let's call it an Irish coffee. Wanted to start earlier, but hey, I got all day.



10:56 AM - Girlfriend made me breakfast! It's delicious! Time for another drink soon, too.

12:08 PM - Irish Car Bomb time! Kinda disappointed it's afternoon already.

Man gets stranded, survives on frozen beer

How do you survive the cold Alaskan wild for 3 days with no food?  Frozen Coors Light of course!  52 year old Clifton Vial found himself stranded off-road after driving into a snow drift in Nome, Alaska.  He only had a nearly empty tank of gas in his pick-up truck, and a $30 jacket he got from Sears.  And the frozen beer, naturally. He occasionally turned on his truck for heat and radio, as he was far too stuck to dig out.  The beer was the only "food" he ate the whole time, and Clifton remarkably survived without any frostbite (losing 16 pounds in the process).
