Half a Beer One Truck

2003 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Time and time again we see alcohol clensing the gene pool of our finest and bravest morons by giving them that shot of courage. Well one of our finest loved this courage in a can so much he decided no risk was to great to save it. Now we have all seen in one movie or ad where the guy goes to some extreme to save his beer. Yes beer is good and worth an effort but the effort must be weighed against the importance of the beer. Well this man decided a half of a can of cheap domestic was worth a frogger imitation. In the proccess of trying to save his special brew he leapt out onto a busy highway during rush hour to retrive his rolling prize only to catch the front end of a rolling Chevy pickup. Yes i know ones beer is a precious thing but im guessing the cost of the can of beer does not out weigh the hospital bills if he lives. At the time i write this he is in critical condition but hey he sounds like hes a real go getter and im sure he will get a darwin if if he is thwarted this time.
