.341 BAC

Now this is something else, "When you read this girl's arrest story, you won't believe she's still alive." Via Instapundit.

I was joking around this weekend about having a "Jim Beam" hangover.

Okay, I'm back. Jim Beam messed up my Twitter time. #Vegas

That was some end-of-summer partying, although not being arrested like the young lady I have no clue what my BAC would have been. I'm at the hotel with my wife, with no plans to get behind the wheel of a car. So, let it rip!

Well, maybe not. I don't know what got into this lady to drink what was essentially 8 shots of vodka in about 15 minutes, and she weighs just 100 pounds. That's a recipe for death. She didn't see it that way, it turns out. Something of a college binge-drinking badge of honor. As the piece indicates:

Point three four one. That was the blood-alcohol content of a woman named Samantha Lynne Goudie, 22, who tried to jump onto the field during a Northern Illinois–Iowa game and got arrested for public intoxication. Once her mom bailed her out of jail, she tweeted from the Twitter handle @Vodka_samm (yes, really):

Just went to jail #yolo

My mom had to get me out of jail and had to take a breathalizer #lmao

My mom hates me too

I'm going to get .341 tattooed on me because its so epic

Well, Ima disagree with how "epic" this is --- she could have gotten herself killed.

Here's this from the University of Oklahoma Police Department, "PPROXIMATE BLOOD ALCOHOL PERCENTAGE":

0.20 BAC: Feeling dazed/confused or otherwise disoriented. May need help to stand/walk. If you injure yourself you may not feel the pain. Some people have nausea and vomiting at this level. The gag reflex is impaired and you can choke if you do vomit. Blackouts are likely at this level so you may not remember what has happened.

0.25 BAC: All mental, physical and sensory functions are severely impaired. Increased risk of asphyxiation from choking on vomit and of seriously injuring yourself by falls or other accidents.

0.30 BAC: STUPOR. You have little comprehension of where you are. You may pass out suddenly and be difficult to awaken.

0.35 BAC: Coma is possible. This is the level of surgical anesthesia.

0.40 BAC and up: Onset of coma, and possible death due to respiratory arrest.

YOLO = YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE.

But you might want to live a little longer, sweetie.
