Doing the Math #1

I love it when a simple calculation has such a happy result:

One liter of beer contains 20% of your daily requirements for fiber. That means if you consume a 12 pack of Coor’s beer on a Sunday afternoon while watching football, your fiber intake will be 87.3% of what you need for the entire day and it’s all 100% recyclable. That leaves room for a couple of hot dogs too! Ain’t life grand? I offer a celebratory haiku.

I'm getting the most wonderful mental images from this one, Patrick :)
Beer is an acquired taste I've yet to acquire, but knowing it has all this fiber is wonderful news!

Like Michael, I got a kick out of the Amber waves from grain... the ambiguity is delightful. I can do without the beer, though. non-alcoholic pursuits are so much more enjoyable!

Love this Patrick, but I've been drinking more brandy and less beer lately. Could you please do the math on that for me? Thanks for bringing a little sun into my day. Dick

I've always loved math, football, beer and haiku. Now you have married all 4 to our good health. Congratulations my friend.
