Okay, the kid signed off. I hope that means he went to bed. BTW, **Dog** , you are about halfway around the world and it has to be about two in the morning where you are and you should stop drinking and go to bed too. Oh wait… that’s me. G’nite, mates. ---

Ya know, I think this will be his only one. From the sound of it, he doesn’t really enjoy being DRUNK, and this seems to be his first time. He’ll probably be more moderate in the future. That’s the way it worked for me, anyway - your mileage may vary. ---

Good lord, every time I see my posts in that writing style that sense of dread comes down over me. Yet I still get drunk from time to time, despite almost always regretting it somewhat later. I know what he means about ‘THE MIND IS UNAFFECTED’. A portion of your mind always seems fully normal and sober, it’s just that the body isn’t obeying and your senses aren’t coming through right, and the part of your mind that isn’t sober sometimes hijacks things and does stuff against your better judgement. ---

Soon I will be 21, and I will have a concealed weapons permit. Drunkiness is a temporary high, but the ability to kill always makes you feel good. ---

Gatorade is sweet? When did that happen? If not Gatorade, then Pediolite[sup]tm[/sup], or in a pinch, a touch of lemon juice, a teaspoon of sugar, and a dash of salt in a tall glass of cool water, and an asprin. ---
