Reader Mike L. sends me this astounding list of booze consumption:

Wait… we Texans spent more on booze per capita than Floriduh? Musht be shome mishtake.
Anyway, I can see why the states at the top are where they are, viz. a) it’s fucking cold there, and b) there’s not much else to do when the snow is fourteen feet deep, and you can only have sex so many times a day until your cousin starts complaining. Then again…

I don’t know if I can trust that list, Wisconsin isn’t on it.
Neither is New York: it’s not spending if you shoplift it.
.
Apparently the UK spends about £500 per person per year (high end estimate). That seems awfully low to me, but apparently a lot of the yoof are TT.
Sorry, is that per month? Or per year? Cause if that’s per year, I’m definitely working on the high side of that. Maybe I should slow down?
Colorado is #3, and it doesn’t really get cold enough here that you can’t go outside in the snow. At least during the day.
