The Hippocratini

This also would have been appropriate for the "Hawkeye" Pierce School of Medicine...

In honor of our drinking podcast…

This design was suggested to me by Gentlemen Jesse and Lee. During their travels abroad, they discovered a sign featuring the staff with a snake intertwining it that symbolizes medicine or pharmacies (the Rod of Asclepius, although the Caduceus is also occasionally used) and both mistook the staff for a martini glass. Read into that what you will, but both agreed that the healing powers of the martini surely exceed anything available over the counter.

As regular listeners and/or readers have no doubt noticed, the League strongly supports drinking with both leisurely and adventurous activities. With that, I now present what we here at the LGA have deemed, “The Hippocratini”. The symbol of approval for drinking as the cause of, and solution to, many of life’s problems.

I’m very much a fan of this logo…and drinking in general.
