My local HEB has these cute little cardboard six-pack carriers, and an awesome selection of beer. You go and put any six you want in the carrier and they ring them up at the register. I've got a little bit of everything to try. I like darker beers, so mostly those.
Coffee, water, maybe a pop (soda) or two...
I'm curious: Is it soda or pop in your neck of the woods? It's pop in mine, but I say soda because pop was my grandfather lol!Pop, but we've been so overrun in the past few years with folks from all over, that the two are used interchangeably.
Bombay Sapphire GinI recall reading some of that came out in 'extra strength'....

Dueya wanna Coke?
Yeah, sure.
Ok, what kind?
I've got a thing on Monday morning. No drinking for me this weekend. I'm old enough now that when I get drunk, it takes me 3 to 5 days to sober up. I'm smart enough to know when I've reached my lifetime limit on drinking. My body just can't take it like it used to.
No drinking for me but I have a ribeye and taters in my halogen oven for a late dinner followed by chocolate ice cream.
Exactly why I quit!

There is a difference in 'drinking' and getting drunk. Fortunately as I've grown older, I've finally learned that lesson. I won't be getting drunk tonight, I can't do that anymore. It's just too painful and time consuming. I am happy to leave getting drunk for the kids.
Water, Sweet tea, lemonade, an occasional creme soda or root beer... and a very rare PBR or two.
Works for me.

Lest anyone misunderstand me, I have drank enough to either float or sink (as you like) the Queen Mary in the course of my lifetime. I fondly remember the days when I could wake up in the morning with a "Geeez I'm never going to do that again!" and be right back in the club that night doing it all over again but I can't do that anymore. What I used to recover from in a matter of hours now takes me a week or more and it just ain't worth it.

Ah, just a little levity there. But I was that wild back in my younger days, though.
I always reach for the hard stuff:

This is what I listened to while I was loaded in the '78 Fleetwood. Apparently the girls do not like 70's soft rock as much as I do...

When I found out all those Olympic Beer Drinking Team shirts were..a joke..I was so disillusioned I broke training and quit. I always had the key with me for my Superglide. Since then, it's knowing which switch to throw and kicking it over. (No magic button on my chopper).
Thumbs down to you. Pish posh.
I do. That is what gets me though to the next day...

I always lock my switch and front forks to make it at least difficult for thieves and impossible for an inebriated me to take a ride.I got 'Baby" after I quit drinking. A guy asked me how she got her name. 80 inch shovel, kick start only, running a Morris MK V mag, and battery eliminator. I just said one day I was trying to get her to go ("Spring windup") and it dawned on me. I was saying, "C'mon, baby start!" I never got too drunk to ride the Superglide, even if I did so sideways a couple of times and laid it over once going backward...
Getting lost in her lovin' is your first mistake

That's good story right there, I guarantee you.Yeah...just one of those alcohol fueled dumbass moments. I'd been shooting the breeze with a bro from Canada I hadn't seen in ages, and we just sat there straddling our bikes headed in opposite directions with the engines shut down cause hogs don't like to run sitting still. I kicked mine into gear as the last few beer kicked in so the bike wouldn't roll, and when we were done catching up, I hit the starter and lurched the bike forward. Laughing, I found neutral on the first try, but I ended up rolling back, going downhill backwards into a ravine through a bunch of 4-6 inch and larger trees. Once the rear tire hit the steep stuff only a few feet behind me, there was no stopping. I was tipping right, so I couldn't use the back brake and the front wheel just slid in the leaves.
Quote from @Frank Cannon:Agreed!
Damn straight.
We have come full circle. Lust. Love. Break-up.... Ships sinking...
We had broken up for good just an hour before,
And now I'm staring at the bodies as they're dancing 'cross the floor.

God looks out for fools, drunks, pregnant women and Scottsmen, and I hit my three out of four that day (leaning heavily on the Scotts fraction, too).
I missed all of the trees and ended up at the bottom of a steep hill with the bike tipped over laying on my leg and laughing my ass off. I didn't get so much as a scratch. Three bros popped their heads over the edge, expecting the worst, came down shaking their heads, and helped get the bike off me, one (Road Captain) 'grounded' me for a few hours and we got the bike to camp, none the worse for wear. When I sobered up and realized how easily that could have ruined my weekend, I just got ripped celebrating my good fortune, but the bike stayed on the kickstand until the next day.
That shit is smooth. I usually have that in the bar for whiskey drinkers.
Gordon is good music.
I knew it.You're welcome! And I am glad we can laugh about it now. :laugh:
I just knew it was one of those stories. And we can laugh about it now.
And I am. ;)
Thanks, bro!
We should probably clean this place up now. Maybe.I'll help. Get the fire hose...
I nonminate @Wingnut.
The after-party party is at @Frank Cannon's place.
I got shotgun.
