Yes ... many years ago (early 80s) we had a killer office party during which I got everyone so sauced that they didn't even notice when I ground up the lid of my blender in the drinks. They just drank it anyway. Larry Murphy (God rest his soul) left early and managed to get pulled over doing a blazing 12 MPH in the high speed lane on 128 that goes around Boston. Fortunately, the cop who pulled him over was his neighbor, and after putting him in the back seat of the cruiser, parked Larry's car in the breakdown lane, and took Larry home to his wife where he was severely beaten. She then she called me at the office and screamed at me for about a half hour. By that time I was too drunk to care, so put the phone on speaker and let her rip while we laughed our asses off.

That was the day I got home, and found someone parked in my space at the apartment complex; I broke into their car, and with the assistance of a friend pushed it up into the high speed lane of the highway.

Now, I work from a home office and can (do) drink for XMas - as well as most of the rest of the Holiday's (including Arbor Day, Groundhog Day, Elvis' BDay, the Equinoxes and Solstices, Halloween, Easter, and most of the other's too). St. Patrick's is about the best since it's the also the only holiday where I can puke green and tell the Lovely Joelle that it was because I ate the vegetables that she claims are good for me.

Yes, I know drinking kills brain cells, but they're all gonna die at some point anyway. At least this way I get to say goodbye to them a few at a time.

Cheers!
