So, today in one of my history courses, I learned how the word BOOZE made it into the English language. Apparently it stems from when William Henry Harrison was running for presidency. He won the election because of the amount of alcohol that his campaigners gave to the voters. The company that produced Harrison's alcohol for him was a company named Booze out of Northern New York.

Apparently I'm not wasting my money going to college....
