    I have 24 cans of beer, two hands and one mouth. What would be the most efficient configuration for consumption of the beer? I prefer TJPG to TGIF. They're mostly the same, but TJPG has more colours. //L

            Depending upon configuration parameters, ie. are you right handed or left handed?, you must place all 24 cans with in reach of said hand. Grasp a full can with this hand and rotate your arm around until you other hand can be used to open the can you are holding. Be careful not to spill any. With the can opened, now bring the can up to one's mouth and fully drain the can into your mouth, swallowing as needed. Again take extreme care to not spill anyway. Once the can is empty, you should move the can away from your mouth and transfer the empty can to your empty hand and now hurl that can as far away as possible. Repeat this process as many times as you can until all 24 cans of beer have been consumed. It is recommended to not operate heavy equipment or engage in driving should you follow this procedure. Loss of life may ensue. Good Luck. :)

                You, good Sir, are a technical writer in hiding. I shall follow this manual to the letter. P.S.: The notes about not spilling are redundant. I am chairman in my local chapter of People Against Alcohol Abuse. //L

                      I agree with you. Alcohol should not be misused, it should be used for it's primary purpose. And I will be using a lot of it tonight! :)
