Jake McIntyre* was insane, a midwest oil rigger by trade, he had joined the army for the college fund. Once at noon, we got ripped on Strawberry Boone's Farm and he puked all over the glass window of a well-known downtown eating establishment during the lunch hour. I was thinking, what the hell was he doing, then he fell to his knees and licked it all up, smeared it all over the place. You should have seen the faces of the patrons! To tell you the truth, I'm not sure if college could ever help somebody that sick, but at least he tried.

Can College Help Somebody That's Sick? (Jake)

* Not his real name....but, a true story!
