Me too-may occasionally have a drink at home, but seldom more than one. With others I may have more, but can't tell you when I was drunk last.

Depends on who's buying. :lol:

Take away parking lot parties, conventions and time on vacation and my average drops a lot. Plus i've been w*rking night shift too d*mn much this year. It's been a unususal rainy year in Texas this spring & summer so that's also decreased my consumption.

Now my coffee consumption . . .

Unless I'm at a concert, I won't drink more than a six pack per week.

AT a concert, I may have 4-5 before the concert, and maybe one or two afterwards.
Chicago was the exception rather than the rule to that.

That could be the sign of a problem. I mean, whose gonna get you a drink if you can't stand up? :lol: :lol:

Imho, there is no problem with having a drink, or several, by one's self.

I usually have a couple after hockey and one with dinner 3 or 4 times a week.

Nice. :) But can they open it?

I think I'll have to wait a few years until my kids can do that.

I usually just drink during the weekend and sometimes on tuesday
wing nights. Mostly it depends on what kind of week it's been. I very
rarely get drunk or even buzzed because it takes too much booze to
do it. No B.S., just the advantage of a large body mass and a lifetime
of practice. :pirate:

heck yes, she's very adept with the screw off lid or the box o'wine!
She can pour a beer properly.......and knows that Mommy likes two shot glasses of rum in her drinks.....she's almost fifteen, but if you start them young enough they pick up the skills pretty quickly....

Good skills to have, she can put that on her resume. Sort of reminds me of that Simpsons episode where Bart gets a job working for the mob and he pours himself 2 fingers of milk.

It's the beauty of drinking beer from a pitcher. As long as your glass keeps getting refilled before it is empty, TECHNICALLY you've only had the one beer...

Hmm...by that logic...doing a multiple beer beer-bong would only beer one beer. Not that I've ever done a 3 story, 4 beer beer-bong. :wink:
