I can't drink like I did for years, but not because I don't want to sometimes. My last bad drunk ended up in the hospital with my heart out of rhythm. They gave me an IV that had me back in rhythm within minutes. I haven't had more than a couple of beers on any occasion since then, but ended up in the ER twice anyway. The last time they had to shock me into rhythm. A year and a half ago I had a flutter ablation to fix the endless loop that would get going in one chamber. My cardiologist told me I am cured, and I haven't had an irregular heartbeat since. He told me I can drink if I want, that the condition is fixed more or less permanently. I am sure he is an outstanding surgeon and knows what he is talking about, but I'm still afraid to cut loose and test it.
I'm not one of those people who feels sorry or has regrets about my years of drinking. I had a great time, a lot of fun, and my friends and I have hilarious stories that are retold around a campfire. No one got hurt, no one died, and no one got arrested. I wish I could do it all over again.

Seems like it was last October. Warm day. I had a big pinoak down so had a friend come over with his trailer. I drug it out in the open with the tractor and we cut it down and split it, loading the trailer as we went. Finishes about 1130, walked up to the house, cracked the seal on a new bottle of Four Roses. Started with a couple of glasses over ice then a few shots. Guess it was too early to start such an endeavor but I got schnockered sitting on the back deck. I remember the UPS guy driving up and looking kinda funny at me.
Buddy left, I went in and puked a couple of times and then laid down and kinda slept it off. It was one of those times when operating any kind of equipment was ill-advised. Hadn't been like that in a couple of decades prior to that. Are you sure? I figured it would have been during a Cowboys game. I'm sure. If Stealer fans can handle the krap they are then I, as a Cowboy fan, don't need to get sloober-knockered in a Cowboy game.

Advice? Wise men don't need it. Fools won't heed it.

In my circle, a bunch has been hurt, a couple died, and several have been arrested, and that’s just the wife’s family…. I try to leave early now before things start getting sporty.

I’m sure that’s the case if you can’t drink responsibly. I can and do.

All I drink is beer. Nothing else.
With once in a blue moon, sipping some Brandy.
It's my German blood. I love a beer.

Courage - knowing something will hurt and still doing it. Stupidity - knowing something will hurt and still doing it. That’s why life is difficult
