25 News Briefs That Really Left Their Mark

So, I enjoy this list of interesting facts because it is the perfect length for a beer or a tall glass of ice-cold water, yet I still manage to get through it in one evening. As soon as I start the second night, I am already two beers into my third, and have started skipping the actual list, which I realize is the wrong way to go about things, and the third night, I am too far into my fifth beer to even remember the title of the list. By the sixth day, I am feeling woozy from dehydration. My mind is swimming in a sea of fog, and it is no longer even remotely possible to read the list with any clarity. I am so out of it that I can't even remember the title, so I start at the top again. The next day I am sober, and the thought of having to start all over is so mortifying that I go straight back to the beer. By the tenth day I am feeling hungover, so I stop reading the list altogether, and go back to the beer.
