Meat.... Schmeat !!!!
An Iowa man (above) has vowed to subsist on nothing but beer and water for the 46 days from Ash Wednesday until Easter, on April 24.
J. Wilson is a home brewer, beer blogger and editor of the weekly Adams County Free Press newspaper. The married father of two, who describes himself as a nondenominational Christian, says he became fascinated with the 300-year-old tale of doppelbock beer known as "liquid bread," brewed by German monks who were not allowed to eat food during Lent.
"The idea came to me a couple years ago, and it didn't really make sense then, my wife quickly pointed out," said Wilson, 38, adding that he worked 13 hours a day in a restaurant back then. "I did not live the life of a monk at that time."
But with preparations that began in August, including bulking up from his normal 140 pounds to 160 since Thanksgiving, Wilson says he was ready to give it a go. He says he already was down to 157 pounds by Thursday.
He's living on four 12-ounce Illuminator Doppelbocks a day, brewed for him by the Rock Bottom Brewery in Des Moines. Each beer contains just under 300 calories and is roughly 6.7 percent alcohol.

Liquid Anger
Whoa... We've been angry before, but never this angry.
There are just some things you don't do in a civilized society and trashing a liquor store ain't one of them.
This is a surveillance video so there's no sound. But it's clear that after entering the liquor establishment, the woman in the video had some sort of dispute with the staff. She then decided to leave, but not before causing thousands of dollars worth of damage.
