Ask a glass of water. 😛

Getting drunk doesn’t necessarily require pain and agony the next day…that’s just too, um, Catholic. (ya know, Paying for your Sins and all that.)

/me had 4 beers last night. T’was pleasant.

Nine pints of Guiness last night. You get intelectualy drunk, can still hold down a conversation, and have no need for that late night kebab experience. Tis a food and a drink. Joy! Up at 8 this morning, annoyingly perky and bright eyed. God bless the Irish!

Y’know, that’s the best drunken mix-up of **Q.E.D.** and myself that I’ve ever seen.

All right, it’s the only one I’ve ever seen.

Yes, it’s very odd that there haven’t been many more of those.

That disturbs me too.

First off, I want to compliment **MonkeyMule** for proving the above quote to be incorrect a mere 15 minutes after it was posted. Hope yer feeling good now, amigo!

NOW, let’s get down to cases, so to speak:

**BACKGROUND:** Mrs. Consigliori is working tonight. I have my yardwork completed. To quote Paul Simon,\* “I have no deeds to do, no promises to keep”\*.

I am quite certain that I will be _“dappled(?) and drowsy and ready to sleep”_ well before midnight, but in the interim:

**TIME:** It is now almost 7:15 PM, EST.

**DRINKS (so far):** Four Harps and a nip of scotch at [Corbett McGee’s Irish Pub](http://www.corbettmcgees.com/). Yeah, I know that some think that Harp is for sissies, but screw it. I like Harp, and we ain’t in Great Debates. Anyway, I’m back home, where I have Budweiser and Merlot Mountain, if need be.

**MY GAME PLAN:** I haven’t treated myself to a good old drinking session in a long time, so I’m gonna have at it. Got lots of food and some Goody’s powders (the true Breakfast of Champions), so we’ll see what happens.

Cheers!

I’m quite upset at the thought of people igniting kitties, be they drunken or not! Flames are not the way to prevent furballs. :mad:

You know I am so fucking bored that I can’t be bothered to drink. And I can’t be bothered to post a link in which a guy has set up a websites that cause spammers to unwittingly enter themselves into contracts whereby they must pay $500 or be sued.

If you want to drink, go right ahead. Last weekend, I drank some beer at a wedding reception… didn’t get TOO buzzed off one glass. But I **do** remember the time I drank one glass of Napoleon Brandy… that stuff was strong, but GOOD!

Tsk, tsk…I leave for two days and just look at the mischief you people get yourself into!

**FairyChatMom** , not only have my questions been thoroughly (and graphically) answered thanks to \*\*aha \*\* and **Monkey Mule** , a lesson as been vicariously learned. I will never, ever, ever drink the demon rum, no matter how glamorous other Dopers make it look or how much money they offer me.

And **Monkey Mule** , I just want to let you know that I appreciate your sacrifice in the name of science. Sorry I wasn’t there to hold your hair. Well, not really, but the sentiment is there.

I’m so happy to be sober. Look! I can spell reasonably well and I can utilize the shift key! Hoorah!

Hmmm, I must not have drank enough yesterday. I am awake and feel reasonably productive.

Oh well, there’s always today!
