A couple cases of beer makes me more drunk than going to work, mowing the lawn, or playing Jarts.
Why is that?

1. I think because playing 'Jarts' requires
one to be of solid, sober mind and instincts?

We used to throw them at each other when we were kids.

5. No. By the grace of God we never injured one another - managed always to dodge them.
Though I did put one into my big toe when we were playing a game of "how close to your feet can you throw one into the ground". That required a few Band-Aids ("Flesh" colored, of course, since it was the early 70s).

:rofl:
