Spirits Competition

Karl, Cam, Chris, and Zaux are all lovers of spirits. One evening they are sitting in their favorite watering hole and a heated debate ensues over who can consume the most of their favorite poison. Chris suggests a competition for bragging rights. The bartender likes the idea (to increase sales) ... he agrees to keep the shots coming. With the first tray of assorted shots, he brings a pen and pad so the group can document their endeavors. Using an honor system, each one keeps a tally of his consumption. After 2 hours, the group agrees they have all had their limit. Being, a little bleary eyed, they turn in the information to the bartender to determine the winner. The bartender sets up a chart upon which to post the information ... being an extremely busy night, he posts information between drawing tap beer and offering snacks to all his customers. Although he gets all the info in the correct column, his hectic work pace causes him to get only one item in each column in the correct position.



Here's the incorrect chart:



--------------- NAME ---- SURNAME ---- SHOT TYPE



First Place ----- Karl ------Woozy ---------- Scotch



Second Place --Cam ------ Lighthead ------ Bourbon



Third Place ----Chris ----- Cantsee --------- Vodka



Fourth Place ---Zaux ----- Redeye --------- Tequila



A mutual friend, who had watched and enjoyed the competition, looked at the bartender's finished chart and said, "I watched the whole thing, this can't be right. I do know that:



* Zaux is one place above his friend who had Tequila

* The bourbon drinker is not above Chris

* Woozy is two places below Chris

* The bourbon drinker is one place above Lighthead"


The confused, and very busy, bartender offers free drink of choice, for the remainder of the evening, to anyone who can correctly rearrange the chart.

Are you thirsty enough to correct the chart?

"the bourbon drinker is not above Chris" but it doesn't say the bourbon is not Chris...(a little dirty);{

1-Chris -redeye -bourbon
2-Cam -lighthead -vodka
3-Zaux -woozy -scotch
4-Karl -cantsee -tequila

You had to be at the bar on the evening that we had the binge to claim the free drinks. You were at home on your couch (LOL).

The flux capacitor on a couch is underneath ...

Knightmare, since you missed the free drinks at the bar, I made arrangements with the bartender for you too get 2 drinks for the price of 3, all night long, on your next visit. Jim, the bartender, wanted to know if you're the one who wrote on the bathroom wall "for a good time, call Jim" ... he's a little upset about it.
