Doc, this sugar power ain't nuthin new. About 35 years ago at Cal Poly SLO

I discovered if I took a bottle of cheap tequila and drank most of it, my organs would break the alcohol into sugar. This gave me the power to run naked across the football field during a game, surf a pickup truck hood while peeing, climb trees in a gorilla suit and jump down in front of unsuspecting women, get aroused by farm animals, then go do it all over again Saturday night.

P.S. I was the "Blue Hood" at UCLA '73

Where do you get sugar for free? I usually have to pay for it.

3D batteries are better than our 2D batteries
