If the Pilgrims would have had enough beer on the Mayflower, we'd be having Virginia ham instead of turkey.

After all the water spoiled, they were forced to drink beer to survive.

The fundies like to scream this is a day to thank God...since Squanto and the owner of the Bass Brewery had more to do with their survival than God, maybe we should thank the brewers of the world.
