Did you perform said study in either Boston or San Francisco? Seriously
flawed, that study. Seriously . . .

Seriously??.... North Dakota, Montana, Seattle, Oregon, California,
Arizona, New Mexico, Texas (Real wimps there), Louisiana, Alambama, Florida,
South & North Carolina, Washington, New York, Massachusetts, Maine.... and
yes the wimps in Boston. My wife at the time out drank any Cracker or Yankee
we partied with. Truley a pathetic show of the consumption abilities of the
USA in general. We were at a place in Huston... having a pizza and some
beer with these bikers we met..... come the 7th Jug of brew and 2 of them
were face down on the table. Neither of us had more than a slight buzz. We
had to help carry them out to the cab and got to drive their bikes to the
hotel.

Well, okay, you can use it, but please limit your usage of it to once or
perhaps twice per annum, then kyew.

That's once this year....

Hmmm. We shall see. My local shop has a bottle--I called them yesterday
to
ascertain that fact--and they are reserving it for me. I guess if it
tastes a lot like turpentine, I can always use it to clean up my lacquer
brushes.

Now see... that's just plain bad attitude. I recommend a fine rum you have
yet to sample.... and already you're all negative about it. If I didn't know
any better .... I'd say you are setting up an alibi in case it's too potent
for your delicate palate.

Your liver thanks you.

My liver just does it's job without any whining.... it's a Belgian
Liver.... not some lily livered Yankee organ.


None of the septugenarians I know drink much of anything beyond
electrolyte
supplements. Oh, and barium, on the occasions of their annual upper GI
series.

You'd best take a trip up here..... I'll intro you to a few seniors that
can drink the young'ens under the table.


Only in Canada. Down here we have no such guiding regulations--just women
hockey players from MN with more hair on their chests than Canadian men.
And wow can they bite.

.... but can they drink?


Okay, I'll agree to bash the Frogs wid ya.

Oh Good!

Stick to draglining oil sands up north, Cappy. Your differential
diagnostic
skills curve has flattened and begun to head south.

My diagnostic skills are just fine ..... you deal with a product known for
premature failure [ Americans trying to hold their liquor] for an extended
period.... it's plain logic to expect failure from this product.... despite
the advertisement to the contrary provided by the company.


She ain't askeered o' you or yo mamma, either.

Everyone is skeered o' my Mom.... even the RCMP call her "Anny Get Your
Gun"

Ibid: your diagnostic "skills." When you *assume* you make an *ass*
outta
*u*, if not *me.* We Merkans like our women and our liquor straight.

Assumptions based on logical deductions are calculated risks..... much like
your assumptions the your liquor has more than a modicum of alcohol and your
women an interest in anything but a cheap drunken backseat romp... with
someone not of their gender.


Oh. My. God.

Um, belay that urge to post that photo, will ya.

Too "Manly" a sight for you Max???

Tacks?? Pshaw. We'll drink standing in a small circle surrounded by a 6'
ring of glowing coals, no shoes. Here's to ya, ya Rocky Mountain oyster.

Oky Dokey..... a caveat... the small inner circle must be ICE!! :-D

Don't worry Max.... I'll drag you out of the embers....

That's what you get for hanging with bikers, the wimps. The real men down

G I've been known to drink slivovitz and aquavit, and you're worried
about my palate . . . Yes, my attitude it poor on the subject, but I've
just never found high-proof liquors to be worth much beyond a quick and
sustaining drunk.

Your liver thanks you.

Do Belgian livers come pre-pickled?

The only place I've known old timers with such tolerance is in Italy. How
does five bottles of amarone sound at one sitting. (wish the old *******
had shared some with the rest of us . . .)

They generally bite *after* drinking, but one never knows when those teeth
might appear.

Yeah, they are such a convenient target, aren't they? Hey, you've got a
bunch o' em up there in the eastern sector, doncha?

Overproof, M.D.? Nah. You must have missed that chapter on Merkun
tolerance to alcohol. Page 431, paragraph 4, line 23-31: " . . . the myth
regarding cultures outside the USA that possess unusual ethanol tolerance.
McGrady, et. al., discovered in their epidemiological study of North
American cultures vs. ethanol tolerance an inverse correlation between
latitude and the ability to withstand the deliterious effects of copious
ethanol imbibition. Subjects from lower latitudes demonstrated a greater
propensity for remaining conscious following 10 standard (2oz. 50% ethanol)
drinks than those from higher latitudes. The conclusion that equatorial
proximity equates to greater tolerance and polar proximity equates to less
tolerance appears to be substantiated by McGrady and . . ."

Have you considered becoming a yoga instructor?

Around here we call her "Katy bar the door." Or is it "Bar the door, it's
Katy?"

"Manly" ain't got nuttin' to do wid dat. Oh dear, but I've been possessed

We don't have any o' that stuff down here. Well, okay, we got some of it
today, but it won't stay long.

Aha, now I know why you want the ice--so the embers won't burn your feet
when you stagger backward. Gotcha.

Well, I've always felt that bragging about ho wmuch liquor you could
drink was proof of a wasted life. But in any event, you didn't do much
drinking in NC. Knock back some moonshine with some good ol' boys and
then (after a few days to recover) tell us again.

Truley depends on your tolerence and if you got wasted!

Sure did... once at a roadside stop and then with some friends who own a
pottery business there.

No, it just shows you have nothing better to do. What's the point? You
end up with fewer brain cells, less money, and they can make liquor
faster than you can drink it.

You don't get moonshine at a "roadside stop."

Pottery... did you go to Seagroves?

The good stuff doesn't taste so bad. All of it should numb your mouth so
quick you barely taste it anyway... although it may be that you can
still feel the burn!

I've never been a fan drinking huge quantities of hard liquor either...
except on rare occasions when it's justified.

Lets call it culling of the weaker cells....

You do if the trucker you'er hitchin' a ride with knows the locals.

Pottery... did you go to Seagroves?

No... a private place way back in the boonies.... no phone, no electricity
( their choice.)
