The housing market may be going to hell and the stock market is on shaky ground, but the Wall Street Journal has found pocket enjoying economic growth: the beer pong industry. Explains beer pong entrepreneur Adam Wasserman: "When you move into a new place, you need the basics: a TV, fridge and a beer-pong table." Our immediate reaction: Oh brother. At which point we realized our own brother still owns a beer pong table somewhere. (It is, after all, a game of skill, as Duncan Caroll, beer pong's answer to Anna Wintour, points out: "If they just wanted to get drunk, they would chug beers from the corner store.") Anyway, uh, better beer pong than "gray" rape? [WSJ]
