A wonderful thread . . . and the gmail account makes it so convenient to read.

Myself I haven't been drunk since January 17. When I changed from DJ
to cabdriver I quit drinking large quantities. I didn't choose that,
it went by itself. Meanwhile I even dislike the taste of Jever
Pilsener, the most famous beer around.

But I've got a free weekend now, who knows?

It's unpleasantly like being drunk."
"What's so unpleasant about being drunk?"
"You ask a glass of water."
