Hi Jamison, I came up with a shorter version. I think it is more
efficient, but I am about as new as you are. Here was my code:

bottles = 99
while bottles > 0
	puts bottles.to_s + " bottles of beer on the wall, " + bottles.to_s +
" bottles of beer.     Take one down and pass it around, " + (bottles
= bottles - 1).to_s + " bottles of beer."
end
