Ha, since I'm building this one at the school, no beer will be involved.
I remember when I was back in University, I took psychology as an elective. One of the prof's told me that if you learned something when you were drunk, it was best to perform the task again when drunk, and that performance would go down as one approached sobriety.
I spent two hours the other day trying to figure out why the strong back was 17 feet long, and why the Chum extended past the ends of the strong back. I was so confused, I finally had to get the woodworking guy to give me a hand. He pointed out that 170 inches on the tape measure was not the same as 17 feet, that it was in fact 14'2".
I blame it on BLDCS (Bud Lite Deficiency Canoe Syndrome), which is a new category in the DSM 5, described as "a noticeable decrease in the ability to build canoes cause by the absence of the important brain synthesizing vitamins found in the elixir known as Bud Lite." Although I have always considered the DSM manuals to be a witches brew of phoney syndromes created by drug companies to sell drugs to the unhappy masses, I actually think they got this diagnosis correct.
Fortunately, I will be medicating tonight, so i should be temporarily smarter, and better looking, until tomorrow morning anyway.
