Ouch!!!
My beer fridge in the garage does the same thing - gotta constantly make sure the door is closed.
Nothing worse than finding the door has been cracked open for a few hours...

It could have been an evening altering tragedy.

Completely understand.
I've been down that road.

I usually toss a beer or two into my freezer. I forgot two the other day they froze and broke the bottles. Nice mess in my freezer to clean up!

Since I usually go on the "beer run", I may bring home a six pack of my own....

A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar was full. They agreed that it was.

The professor then picked up a box of pebbles and poured them into the jar. He shook the jar lightly. The pebbles rolled into the open areas between the golf balls. He then asked the students again if the jar was full. They agreed it was.

The professor next picked up a box of sand and poured it into the jar. Of course, the sand filled up everything else. He asked once more if the jar was full.. The students responded with a unanimous 'yes.'

The professor then produced two Beers from under the table and poured the entire contents into the jar effectively filling the empty space between the sand.The students laughed..

'Now,' said the professor as the laughter subsided, 'I want you to recognize that this jar represents your life. The golf balls are the important things-your family, your children, your health, your friends and your favorite passions-and if everything else was lost and only they remained, your life would still be full. The pebbles are the other things that matter like your job, your house and your car.. The sand is everything else-the small stuff.

'If you put the sand into the jar first,' he continued, 'there is no room for the pebbles or the golf balls. The same goes for life.

If you spend all your time and energy on the small stuff you will never have room for the things that are important to you.

Pay attention to the things that are critical to your happiness.

Spend time with your children. Spend time with your parents. Visit with grandparents. Take your spouse out to dinner. Play another 18. There will always be time to clean the house and mow the lawn.

Take care of the golf balls first-the things that really matter. Set your priorities. The rest is just sand.

One of the students raised her hand and inquired what the Beer represented. The professor smiled and said, 'I'm glad you asked.' The Beer just shows you that no matter how full your life may seem, there's always room for a couple of Beers with a friend.

One day two friends, Fundrazor and Bobcat, found themselves adrift in a lifeboat on Lake Superior. While rummaging through the boat's provisions, Bobcat stumbled across an old lamp.

He rubbed the lamp vigorously and suddenly, a genie came forth. This Genie, however, stated that he could only deliver one wish, not the standard three. Without thinking, or consulting Fundrazor, Bobcat immediately blurted out, 'turn the entire lake into Schmidt beer'.

The genie clapped his hands with a deafening sound, and immediately Lake Superior turned into Schmidt beer and just as quickly the genie vanished.

Now only the gentle lapping of beer on the hull broke the stillness as the two men considered their new circumstances.

Fundrazor looked disgustedly at Bobcat whose wish had been granted, and after a long tension-filled moment, Fundrazor said, "Nice going Bobcat!

Now we're going to have to pee in the boat."

"Sometimes when I reflect on all the beer I drink, I feel ashamed. Then I look into the glass and think about the workers in the brewery and all of their hopes and dreams. If I didn't drink this beer, they might be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. I think, 'It is better to drink this beer and let their dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver.'" -- Babe Ruth, baseball legend & beer-guzzling American hero
