Drinking Game

[Seamazter]

During my morning rounds of intresting internet sites i stumbled across this.

Around the United States, Americans are shaking furiously ahead of President Barack Obama's first State of the Union address Wednesday.

But they're not trembling in fear, anger or anticipation: they're using cocktail shakers to get ready for the State of the Union drinking game.

Invented in 2002 by Marc Mezler and Howard Deutsch when they were students at Princeton University, the basic rules of the game require players to down a shot or chug a beer when the president says certain words or phrases, or speaks the names of people or countries during the key speech.

This year, "hope" and "change" both require a swig of something, as do mentions of Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran or Pakistan.

"Let me be clear" and "make no mistake" get a shot each, and if Obama references problems that his administration inherited, players drink a shot of something aged.

Drinks are also required if the camera zooms in on someone..............
The rest of the story is here.
