I was just realising that that Kids ‘n’ da Hall sketch is something like 25 years old. It’s old enough to drink!

Brings back when “Days of Wine and Roses” was in the movies…at the time, I was in the Navy going through missile school. One of our T/E’s was a total alcoholic. He saw “Days of Wine and Roses” and he said that movie scared him so much he didn’t drink for a week!

Scared me too. Didn’t stop me drinking in the long run.

You know the old joke, “I don’t drink any more. I don’t drink any less, either.” Or “He’s under orders from his doctor to stop all drinks. You don’t see any getting past him, do you?”

A friendly, helpful reminder to those getting on in years: You cannot fall and break your hip if you’re already crawling on the floor.

I was leaving the bar t’other night, and some son-of-a-bitch stepped on my hand…

I LOVE girly drinks—the sweeter and fruitier the better. But when I mix a drink for myself I stick to the basics: Martini or G&T. The most complicated drink I make is a hot toddy, though I spent a lot of time finding the right recipe for the hot toddy. It makes you feel drunk and virtuous all at the same time.

@Deborah HH – If you care to try the other end of the “girly / macho” spectrum, a nice easy one is the boilermaker. I’m referring to the U.S. version which in most cases is simply a shot of whiskey with a beer chaser. I’m fond of the “depth charge” variant where you drop the whiskey, shot glass and all, into the glass of beer and then drink that. Yum! Some wag with a morbid sense of humor named that version when using Bushmill’s or the like the Irish Car Bomb.

BTW – the Brit version of the boilermaker is simply a half pint of draught mild mixed with a half pint of bottled brown ale. Not bad at all, but not as macho as mixing whiskey and beer.

That’s what the boilermakers in the shipyards drank, to show their machismo.

I learned to call that a “Black & Tan” always made with Guiness and Bass Ale.

As for drinking, I can quit any time I want, but usually I quit right before nap time.

So what’s the story on the election over there? Are y’all really gonna elect Eddie the Schoolboy? He’ll get his lunch eaten.

We’re up watching the returns, mojo. Looks like a Conservative win, but this is a squeaker.

What kind of cocktail is that supposed to be?
