By Elizabeth Landers, CNN

A goal of drinking 100 beer kegs by the end of senior year. A party with a stripper. A student falling through ceilings at house parties. These are new details coming to light in Mark Judge's descriptions of his days as a Georgetown Prep student.

One of Brett Kavanaugh's close friends during his early years, Mark Judge, has come under scrutiny for his descriptions of his party-hearty high school days at Georgetown Prep, the elite school that Judge and Kavanaugh attended just outside Washington, DC.

In "Wasted: Tales of a Gen X Drunk," Mark Judge describes in detail the raucous parties that would occur with Georgetown Prep School students on the weekends when he was a high school student.

CNN has reviewed portions of the book, which is out of print.

In one passage of the book in a chapter titled "A Functioning Alcoholic," senior year students, including Judge, lamented the news that they would be spending Sundays during their senior year doing community service.

"We have to do something,' I said. 'They can't get away with this our senior year.'

"What are we going to do?' Shane said, laughing. 'Drink a hundred kegs and brag about it?'

"No one laughed. For a second, no one even spoke. 'It's brilliant,' I said."

Judge and his high school buddies went on to create a newspaper called the Heretic, a riff on their school newspaper the Saint. One of the main objectives of the paper, as laid out by Judge in the book, was to chronicle "the 100-keg quest and everything that happened on the way."

According to his book, Judge and his friends continued to publish and anonymously distribute the paper on campus, with a continued emphasis on the 100-keg quest in the pages. Judge wrote that by March of his senior year, the keg count was "into the mid-eighties."

In "Wasted," Judge also describes an exchange with a young woman at a party when talk arose of a friend who puked in a car.

"Do you know Bart O'Kavanaugh?"

"Yeah. He's around here somewhere."

"I heard he puked in someone's car the other night."

"Yeah. He passed out on his way back from a party."

CNN has no confirmation that the Bart O'Kavanaugh mentioned in the passage above refers to Brett Kavanaugh.

LINK that aggregates the CNN story, CNN freezes my computer
Is this real life? In prep school 100 kegs for the entire senior year sounds about right. Has CNN lost their minds? I mean, who GAF about keg parties in HS or college?

The world we now live in. Partying/drinking = sexual assault.

It's a concerted effort to open the door to globalism

We have to stand strong and vote

the people ready to give up is disheartening, we are in a tight game with 8 minutes left in the 4th quarter

Got to buckle down and let our voice be heard

Jeff Flake is the face of the resistance right now, if his actions can cause our side to give up, then I don't know what to say

40 of us floated 5 kegs in 90 minutes during one College party. It was captured on video, but the tape was subsequently lost a few years later.

Before free 24/7 access to porn, kids liked to party.

More hard hitting journalism from CNN.

If you ever want to be a politician or judge, play it safe and move into your parent's basement.

I read through all of that, and can't find a single thing that equates to sexual assault.

Somebody post the non-motor vehicle criminal records of the crooks in Congress and include their mug shots.

"Guilt by association" is okay now?

Because it sure wasn't when we were talking about Obama and Jeremiah Wright and Bill Ayers and Bernadette Dorhn and the list goes on.

While I had my fair share of ETOH while in high school and college, I never touched any illegal drugs (yeah, I know, square). However, I knew a lot of friends that did during that time. Applying this "logic," I am guilty of the "transgressions" of my friends?

Goddamnit Grassley! Put a fricking stop to this!!!!

Notice they cannot raise a single word about his judicial qualifications. All they have is “he went to keg parties”. F*ck em.
