Sober as a judge, Jackie. I'd say many of us have had alcohol on the brain. And what's curious, from reading these various posts, several have admitted to drinking not at all or rarely, yet the fuzzle and fuzzled threads keep on kicking. The terms amuse me, bemuse me at times, but I, too, rarely tip the cup, although the words for doing it one time too many are fun to consider.

Samuel Johnson once defended street people who had been criticized for their drinking habits. I wish I could quote him (where's a Boswell when you need him?), but essentially Johnson was saying that these people had such misery in their lives, why take away their often chosen source of comfort.

Heh, Jackie, you and I have taken a few tips at the word keg a few weeks ago. That was enjoyable. Hic*.

Barrel regards,
WW (still licking my wounds over having been pffffft'd)
