Blah blah, don't drink and drive kids, it's not cool and I won't like you/publish your work.

Okay, now that that's all out of the way Little Mathletics Forum you have your new God.

LITHUANIAN police were so astonished when they pulled over a truck driver and his breathalyser test registered 18 times the legal alcohol limit, they thought their testing device must be broken.

It wasn't.

Police said 41-year-old Vidmantas Sungaila registered 7.27 grams per litre of alcohol in his blood repeatedly on different devices when he was pulled over for driving his truck down the centre of a two-lane highway 100km from the capital, Vilnius, on Saturday.

Lithuania's legal limit is 0.4 grams per litre which, under the Australian system, equates to a blood alcohol concentration of 0.04.


That is fucking astounding. If I'm any good at figuring shit out - which I'm not, which is funny cause I have "Mathletics" in my name, tee hee - that's like .70.

I don't condone drink driving (I've said that, but seriously, I don't) but that's amazing. Lithuania is fucking earning its keep this week - first this radness on Sunday, and now this.

I am thinking of moving, or at least touring or some shit.

Fortunately, the metal band from Finland took out the prize!!!!

Stephen will back me up on this, there was some German chump at O'Keefe's New Years Eve Party that kept claiming that the legal limit over in Germany was something ridiculous like 0.5.
We kept saying that it was a different unit of measurment than we he was adamant that it wasn't and that we were just a bunch a wusses here in Australia.
