Ever wondered if there was some secret trick that would enable you to drink everything you wanted but avoid ending up a drunken, slurring mess? Well, now we know the answer.

There are really no words to describe what's going on here.

Last Friday morning, Mack and myself participated in a controlled experiment in which we highlighted the dangers and the effects alcohol has on us whether we know it or not. You heard it live on 999 KEKB, now watch the story from KKCO News 11.
