I vote not.

I like doing things that require that my dexterity and mental acuity both be at maximum: Dancing, singing, lively intelligent discussion, making love - and now poi. Alcohol impairs all of these, so I don't enjoy it. It's like being sick. At its worst, like being sick in bed with a high fever and the room spinning.

I've only spent a couple of hours, total, in my life "worshipping the god Ralph at the porcelain altar." It was enough.

It's been years and years since I had a drink. I'm not an alcoholic, alcohol is something I can take or leave. Just decided I'm better off leaving it. (Right now the meds I'm on are "coma and death" with alcohol, but I'd pretty well stopped before them.)

And if I didn't take a drink after 9/11, I'm pretty convinced that I'll never experience anything bad enough to make me do it. Call me an optimist!

The older I get the fewer and far between my fun drinking sessions get.

doesnt bother me much tho alcohol is a poison, and I can feel the damage it does if I have more than a few drinks in a night.

Sometimes its fun, but I mostly like to juggle / twirl / dance when I'm having fun, so the situations are usually mutually exclusive.

I'm not a big fan of alcohol, although I do drink occasionally. I'm at my best when I'm on the dancefloor, shaking it to some proggy, wearing my pink cowboy hat with a bottle of Jose Cuervo in hand smile Yee-har!

Bless 8am Sunday mornings at a doof! (photos coming soon)

Preservative 220, which is in many pre-mixed bevvies and wines causes a horrible sinusitis-type allergic reaction in me. There's not much worse than acute sinisitus. So I try to steer clear of it.

The above links to photos taken of people whilst passed out from alcohol abuse. Some of it is graphic. Some of it is disturbing, but most of it had me howling with laughter.

Please forgive this humble Seppo, but could you define 'proggy'?

And acute sinusitis is quite bad enough. I've experienced it. However, it pales by comparison with a severe migraine. I once left work in an ambulance because of a migraine. The pain is only half of it; the blindness, aphasia, confusion, and vomiting make the pain seem almost trivial, even though it's a lot like having white-hot nails driven into your head in dozens and hundreds. (Also the EMT couldn't find a pulse, but I was actually feeling better by then.)

Proggy = progressive trance (cept its not the same as what most ppl think is progressive trance, its more minimal psychedelic trance).

this confusion has been a serious issue for me at times... *sigh*

I like a drink or two, helps me loosen up biggrin but ever since 4th of july last year, I have capped the heavy drinking. I got completely wasted in less than 20 minutes. I was talking and not paying attention when I was pouring drinks and drank the pitcher or comos. Then my friends friend who had just gotten back from Ireland broke out the Irish meade. Meade is so the beast stuff on earth. Course I knew I was really trashed when I started mixing vodka, green apple schapps, ammaretto(sp?), gin, irish red wine, meade, and sour mix suicides for everyone eek

Gather your harps from the willow trees, dust off the ancient strings. Call the bards and prophets, let them sing healing and freedom. Let light and love flow from the strings, colors of revelation.

I don't know. The person serving it said that's what it was. At least I think so. It was red and tasted like wine. Course at that point I don't think I was tasting anything. I will try to find out what it was. It was only last year that they went.



I just took a quick look on the web, and this is a little blurb I found. The wine must have been from Cork, cause I know they visited there cause that's where they're from.

Ieuan, given your state of drunkenness at the time, perhaps your taste and sound memory are both way off? Could they have been talking about Killian's Irish Red? Or is that an American brand (despite its name)?

Drunkness can be good or bad, and I suppose it depends on the type of drunkness?

I think Dutch courage is great though, especially as I'm not always that good around people I hardly know. After a couple of drinks each, breaking the ice is easy whilst not actually being drunk.

Puking on the bathroom floor and crying lots however, isn't so great. ubbloco

I'm not a drinker, so I get to watch all the funny things drunk people do. To me, that's more fun.

I once watched 2 of my friends argue for 10 minutes while staring at a blank TV screen. They disagreed as to which star was going to turn into the Enterprise...

Dance like it hurts; Love like you need money; Work like someone is watching.

Never criticize someone until you've walked a mile in their shoes. That way, when you DO criticize them, you are a mile away, and you have their shoes.
