AT&T sucks in BFE. So no iphone for me. I'm not interested in a crackberry. Plus I need to save money to fix the C3.

At least you found your way to a bed.

I drink a a couple of fifths a week. While I consider that "functional alcoholic" level, I have but one observation: all of you who think that lving to grow old is a good idea -- you're wrong. 70% of you will end up in a home in diapers with that kid who made your Big Mac today as your caregiver. Good f'ing luck. In 75 years everyone posting today will be dead and the length of your life won't matter. What will matter is that you were happy and while you were here.

Cheers!

I used to drink on weekends, then started to pick up some. Being 25 and having stopped going to the gym, started to gain a little weight. So cut out the booze (except for Halloween and special occasions) and soda, and trying to drop the 10 lbs by going to the gym nightly and eating better before it becomes permanent! Figure I might as well nip it in the butt before I turn into all you guys

When I'm back in shape I'm sure it will pick up again. I've realized going out to bars as the DD everytime starts to become a tid bit BORING!

Yeah? Well I only joined because I was drunk when you asked.

And because Tuk's ex asked me to.



EDIT: WTF? "Thanks for a useful post?"

I just found out that one of the wines I likes comes in a box...which means 4 bottles instead of 1 in the fridge...I have a feeling I will be drinking more often because of this.

None for the last 7 or 8 years ( stopped counting after 5th anniversary).

But I did stay at about 20 Holiday Inn Express properties in 2009.

And I did drink enough for two or three of us by my 45th birthday.
