Canned Beer, a reason to celebrate 1/24/2007.

Canned beer was introduced in 1935. Check out the link to see a nifty video from The History Channel. So after work, crack open a can of beer and think how bad the end of the day would suck with out this nifty little invention called the canned beer. Horray Beer!
