In Reply to: I did that at a Sex on the Beach Party put on by Robin Hood posted by ElbowGeek on March 16, 2007 at 14:37:01:
When in peak condition, I and others had turned up at the barracks HQ as required one Friday evening in preparation for a previously scheduled week-end excercise, only to be told that the excercise had been cancelled...Since we were in the obvious vicinity, and were naturally aware that the cost of drinks in "The Segeant's Mess" was substantially lower than in local "pubs", we settled in for a "drinks and chat" session...
When we rose from the table to leave some hours later, I noted that the three of us had consumed two bottles of Talisker, one of Genfiddich, and had just consumed the last of a bottle of Chivas...
We made our collective exit without lurching, bumping into doors, or feeling any necessity to pick fights with anyone who was passing...
"and figured I'd order three Black and Cokes each for me and my mates."...
I'm sure this must have been a considerable underestimate!...

but it ended up damn near killing me, literally. I would get off work at 5pm. and by 10pm I would have consumed 2 Liters of Canadian Whiskey. I did that on a daily basis for roughly 10 years. I haven't had any alcohol now for 16 years and am glad I don't have to live that way anymore and hope I never do again. It doesn't bother me if others drink, but it bothers me and those around me if I do.That shit literally kicked my ass and hopefully I have consumed enough already to last me a lifetime.
Though I can't claim to have had any personal experience of Canadian Whiskey, two litres of any “70 proof” or greater alcohol in less than five hours on a daily basis would certainly be a prodigious intake...Since you are self-evidently not already dead, I suppose it is possible that you may outlast the lot of us... After all, alcohol IS an acknowledged preservative!...
I wish you well...
Thanks Feets. I appreciate the support. I am going to keep an eye out for little green men today. Them lil bastages are full of a wee bit of trickery on the day of Saint Patty.
They were quite large plastic cups, and were consumed in quick succession. Don't know what we weren't thinking, but they were strong with Gosling's finest. Also, drinking my face off wasn't and isn't an everyday event for me, so I was quite unprepared for the onslaught.No fighting ensued in our situation, just a strong desire to go home and crash hard. The next day was a little rough to say the least...
I used to be able to do that too, Bill. But that "skill" vanished several years ago.
