ALCOHOL STUDY

A recent study found that the average American walks about 900 miles in a year.

Another study found Americans drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year.

That means, on average, Americans get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Well...I work in a restaurant, so I walk a couple miles every day.    I only drink alcohol about three times a year, so I'm sure I don't consume anywhere near 21 gallons.

Hmmm...wonder what my MPG is?  I must be a hybrid!

 

 

RIDE ON!

Well lets see, I drive a semi for a living, have a dedicated beer fridge about 6 feet from my recliner...........I think "miles" per gallon may not fit my situation.
