When I was about 6 or 7 years old we lived in a neighborhood pretty close to the Long Beach airport. My dad and our neighbor (who just happened to drive a beer truck) would usually start out on the weekend mowing their lawns and drinking beer, then start watchin' the ballgame and drinking more beer. This would inevitably lead to a BBQ and more beer followed by both of them retiring to the living room to watch (and sing along to) a show called "Sing Along With Mitch" eventually passing out on the floor. When I was eight we moved to Buena Park and lived behind the Lincoln Drive-In where my dad and his new drinkin' buddy would get drunk, hop the back fence and turn up all the speakers so we could sit out in the back yard and watch the movies.
