Shots of vodka?!


Question: Shots of vodka!?
how many shots of vodka do you think it would take to get you a buzzWww@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
for the buzz ,it depends on your tolerance, if you are someone who consumes alcohol on a regular basis your tolerance will be higher than someone who only drinks occasionally!. As with anything as your body becomes accustom to it, it will take more to achieve the same effect!. Think of the athletes you see on the news that get injured they start taking pain killers then before they know it they're addicted!. Be careful chasing that buzz , that it doesn't end up chasing you, If you are talking legally intoxicated that is blood alcohol content, ie: the level of alcohol in your blood, which your weight has a direct effect on!. If a person weighed 160 lbs!. and drank 1 oz!. of 80 proof alcohol they would have a BAC of about !.02 that would with a normal metabolism will stay in your system for about 1 hour!. You can go to www!.coolnurse!.com/alcohol_calculator!.htm and plug in your own numbers!. And remember too much of good thing is usual bad!. Drink responsibly!. And never drink and drive the life you save might be mine! I didn't want this to sound like a temperance lecture, don't get me wrong, I'm a social drinker!. It just some of the questions on this thing are asked by kids and young adults, and I haven't decided yet if people are using it as fun or a real source of information!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You're going to get a bunch of alchie's telling you what's what!. If you're muscular, it will take more, If you are thin it will take less, and if you are fat, it will stall take less than the muscular build would, but you'll get drunk quicker than the others!. I'm not making this up, this is based on cell absorbtion!. Besides this your height and weight are a factor, as well as gender, age and tolerance!.
I see that you are female and not too familure with Vodka, but as a rule of thumb, take a shot and wait, if not buzzed enough, take another one after 5 minutes!. If after this second shot you still don't feel it, take a third after 10 minutes!. Only take as many shots as you would drink beers because one beer is roughly eual to one shot!. But take you're time with shots becuase shots are consumed faster than a bottle of beer (obviously)!.
One will make you buzzed!. Two will make you in between tipsy and drunk!.!.!.for me anyway!.
It depends on your definition!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

a buzz!? Depends on your weight and how often you drink!.

If you're a "light weight" it'll only take like 2!. But if you're a regualr drinker it will prolly take like!.!.!. 3 or 4!. Not to get drunk but to get a buzz, like you said!.

This is from experience, have no clue what the statistics are!. =\Www@FoodAQ@Com

im 97 pounds and it takes me 4 to preety much be drunk so 2 to i guess get a buzz my friends are all like 120 and it takes them also like 5 or 6 to get drunkk so it depends on your weight how often you drink and yeahhhWww@FoodAQ@Com

Anywhere from 3-5 for a BUZZ

(you should know that eating, your weight, tolerance, daily consumption, etc factors in)Www@FoodAQ@Com

[edit] History

Hummer radiator grilleHummers were originally built by AM General Corporation, which was formerly AMC Jeep's General Products division[1], in its South Bend, Indiana assembly plant!. AM General had planned to sell a civilian version of the Hum-Vee as far back as the late 1980s!. In 1990, two matching white Hum-Vees were driven from London to Beijing over the rough roads of central Soviet Union!. The Hummers made the trip with ease, for they were built to drive on off-road terrain!. The highlights of this journey were broadcast in the United States on ESPN!. This publicity would pale in comparison to the attention that the HMMWV received for its service in Operation: Desert Storm the following year!.

In 1992, AM General began selling a civilian version of the M998 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV or Hum-Vee) vehicle to the public under the brand name "Hummer"!. According to sources[citation needed], they began doing so after Arnold Schwarzenegger asked them to; apparently, he was impressed by a convoy of HMMWVs that drove by during his filming Kindergarten Cop in 1990!.

In 1998, AM General sold the brand name to General Motors, but continued to manufacture the vehicles!. GM is responsible for the marketing and distribution of all Hummers produced by AM General!. In the next few years, GM introduced two new homegrown models, the H2 and H3, and renamed the original vehicle H1!. AM General continued to build the H1 until it was discontinued in 2006,[2] and is contracted by GM to produce the H2!. The H3 is built in Shreveport, LA alongside the Chevrolet Colorado and GMC Canyon pickups, with which it shares the GMT-355 platform (custom modified and designated GMT-345)!.


2006 Hummer lineup: H3, H1, and H2 (L-R)As of 2006, Hummer has gone international with selected importers and distributors in Europe and other markets!.

Since October 10, 2006, GM has been producing the Hummer H3 at its Port Elizabeth plant in South Africa for international markets!.[3] Hummers at the Port Elizabeth plant are built both for local South African consumption and exported to Australia in the 2008 model year!. In Europe, the Middle East, and Japan, the H3 is also already available!. As of October 2006, Hummer vehicles are marketed by about 300 dealers in 34 countries!. 173 of those are in the U!.S!.

The H2 is also assembled in Kaliningrad, Russia, by Avtotor, starting in June 2004!. The plant produces a few hundred vehicles annually, and its output is limited to local consumption (five dealers in Russia initially)!.

GM CEO Rick Wagoner has said the Hummer brand of trucks will run on Biofuel Powertrains at last year's[clarify] Los Angeles International Auto Show!. Arnold Schwarzenegger has subsequently had one of his Hummers converted to run on biofuel and now promotes this approach!.[citation needed]

The future of the Hummer brand is in doubt!. On Tuesday 3 June 2008, one day prior to GM's annual shareholder meeting, CEO Rick Wagoner said the brand may be discontinued!. [4] This is due to the decreasing demand for large SUVs as a result of higher oil prices!.


[edit] Off-road abilities
Please help improve this section by expanding it!.
Further information might be found on the talk page or at requests for expansion!.

As of May 2008, Hummer is the only brand in the United States whose entire model range lineup comes standard with a low-range transfer case, relatively high-ground clearance, and off-road tires!. Additionally, no two-wheel drive Hummers are offered at this time!.


[edit] Racing

Team HUMMER stock-class H3 driven by Rod Hall!. Hall finished first in class with the H3 in the 2005 Baja 1000!.
Robby Gordon's Dakar Rally H3!.Team Hummer Racing was created in 1993 and showcases the Hummer's abilities!. Led by off-road racing legend Rod Hall, Team HUMMER competes in the Stock classes of both BitD and SCORE, which feature production-based vehicles with stock frames, stock suspension designs and production-based engines!. Only specialized racing shock absorbers, tires and other minor modifications are allowed, along with the required supporting components and mandatory safety equipment!. Minor modifications are allowed to the powertrain, although the rules stipulate it must be based on the stock engine and transmission combination!.

The team's latest victories came in April 2008, when Team HUMMER swept the stock class races at the Terrible's Town 250!.!.[5]

Team HUMMER has tallied one of the most impressive records in production-class racing, earning 11 class wins at the Baja 1000!.


[edit] Dakar Rally
A highly modified, two-wheel drive Hummer was raced by Robby Gordon in the 2006 and 2007 (8th place) Dakar Rally!.


[edit] Hummer H1 compared with HMMWV
The Hummer H1 is basically a HMMWV built for civilian use; it has no armor or weapons fittings!. However the powertrain, chassis, body, suspension, etc!., are the same!. The H1 differs from the HMMWV in having a civilian interior, including trim, comfortable seats, stereo radio, and air conditioning as standard options!. As a result of its commercial use, features introduced in the civilian Hummer have been incorporated into improved military versions!. The H1's electrical system is 12-volt, with the two batteries wired in parallel!. The HMMWV runs on a 24-volt system, where the two batteries are run in series!.


[edit] Owner efforts
Since all Hummer vehicles have heavy-duty capabilities, they have been employed by owners for aid in large disaster situations!. Hummer Owners Prepared for Emergencies (HOPE) was created by the efforts of The Hummer Club, INC!. and the American Red Cross!. Together, the two organizations train Hummer owners with CPR and First Aid skills, and basic off-highway skills so that they may assist victims during a disaster situation!. GM paid the Red Cross $4 million to participate in the organization!.[6]


[edit] Licensing
GM has been very active and effective in licensing the Hummer!. Various companies have licensed the Hummer trademarks for use on colognes, flashlights, bicycles[7], shoes, coats, hats, laptops[8], clothing, CD players and other items!.[9]

Starting in the early Nineties, when AM General started selling to the civilian market, Hummers began making appearances in the Film and Television industry!. Some earlier and noticeable appearances include Jurassic Park, which featured several different SUV style vehicles, seaQuest DSV which used the Hummer H1 in place of Humvees, and Earth 2 which featured a large, "solar-powered" Hummer Concept truck as their main mode of conveyance!. More recently noticeable appearances include CSI:Miami, being driven by the chief of the crime lab Lt!. Horatio Caine (played by David Caruso) and in the 2007 Transformers movie the Autobot known as Ratchet transforms into a search and rescue Hummer H2!.


[edit] Criticisms
Criticism of Hummers includes all the criticism of SUVs in general, although at a higher degree!. See Criticism of sport utility vehicles!.

Specific extra criticisms of Hummers include:

Poor fuel economy
Even compared to other heavy passenger vehicles, Hummers have poor fuel economy!. For instance, the H2 in one engine configuration averages about 15 mpg (US) (16 L/100 km) on highways, (10 mpg or 24 L/100 km on the street), and has a curb weight of over 6000 pounds (2722 kg)!.[citation needed]
Safety
Crash data for Hummers is less complete than for other SUVs!. Because of its weight, it takes longer and farther to stop in emergency braking situations!. There is a lack of standard safety features, including child safety locks, child seat tethers, side air bags and stability control!. Large blind spots make parking difficult and possibly dangerous!.[10]
Size
Some Hummers are significantly bigger than other SUVs; this can cause problems parking, driving and fitting in a garage!.[11]
Safety and ecology
Safety and ecological perceptions from other road users has attracted a lot of criticism!.[12][13] Eco-terrorists have specifically targeted Hummers!.[14][15][16]
