Beer improves metabolism, and many doctors consider that it is better to drink beer often (may be every day), but with moderate portions (100-200 ml), than rare but with huge portions.

Hops bitterness renders drowse, and alkaloid isomorphine which is in hop by chemical characteristics is analogous to morphine.

Super Tuesday...
Tomorrow is Super Bowl Sunday, but I am kinda stuck on what's going to happen on Super Tuesday. In fact, I'm kinda fired up about it. A possible chance to change the tone. Here in NC we don't vote for a while so I hope/expect all my friends in the Super Tuesday states to go out and vote. So here's the video that Wil.i.am has put together. It is the speech after Obama finished 2nd in the New Hampshire Primary. It was inspiring, to say the least...

Stuff that really doesn't matter...
Its time for the Super Bowl, so what do a lot of lame people start talking about... commercials. There are lots of "Best of..." lists out there. Here are a few...
Gawker: Top 25, with videos. Some pretty lame one's on this list (i.e. just on there because of celebrities).
ESPN.com Page2: Better list, but no videos. They even shoot down Gawkers #1.
MSNBC: solid list, good analysis (what worked, the results), no videos
