It’s Friday again and I can’t wait to go home, sit back and have a cool glass of aftershave. Oh sweet delicious aftershave. Gives me a buzz and makes me smell like a man. Evidently those crazy Russians think like me:

British researchers claim that “hazardous drinking” caused 43% of deaths among working-age men in a Russian city between 2003 and 2005.Their study, which looked at 1,750 deaths, found that men who drank “non-beverage alcohol” were nine times more likely to die. “We’re talking about things like eau de cologne and aftershave which are widely available at kiosks and cheaper because they are not subject to excise duty,” a researcher tells BBC News.

Um, that’s just crazy. Sad, but crazy. So that leads me to ask the question:

“Once a year we go to Austria to hunt with our dogs, and at the end of the day we sit on the verandah and drink a beer. So we thought, my dog also has earned it.” says Terrie Berenden, a pet shop owner in the southern Dutch town of Zelhem, who created a beer for her Weimaraners made from beef extract and malt.

This raises a deep theological question: What is the SBC’s (Southern Baptist Convention) stance on dogs drinking beer? I mean there’s no place in the Bible (quick! prove me wrong) that says your dog can’t kick one back. Is there?

So what do Southern Baptists do when Fido want’s a cold one?

Any thoughts?
