BERLIN - A man nearly died from alcohol poisoning after quaffing a liter (two pints) of vodka at an airport security check instead of handing it over to comply with new carry-on rules, police said Wednesday...

Its all about tolerance. Chances are if he could chug it down, he has done it before. I know people who could. My grandfather used to work with a guy like that. He drank a fifth & a case of beer every night. He always got up the next morning and put in a full day’s work. Sad but true.

I was 18, and it was rum. 35 years later, and I get queasy just thinking about rum.

[Old Mountain man]

Too bad such an idiot lived.

"I was 18, and it was rum. 35 years later, and I get queasy just thinking about rum."

The painful lessons of our youth.

I didn't say I couldn't stand the smell of a Bloody Mary mind you, but one whiff of straight vodka will turn me green.

Fortunately there are other beverages that have more benificent effects. Scotch for example will make my billfold become that of Donald Trump, and Heineken will make my reflection in the mirror become that of Omar Sherif.

Pabst Blue Ribbon changes me into Mars, the god of war.

Would hate to see what would of happen to him if he skipped his nightly for a few days.

Do you know this guy?

[1rudeboy]

It was not me.
It was not at Copenhagen International.
It was not 2002.
It was not 7AM.
I was not with two Lithuanian sailors returning from the Horn of Africa.

[Toddsterpatriot]

I KNEW it!

I OD'd so badly on a bottle of Smirnoff when I was 17 that to this day (56) I can't stand the smell of straight vodka.

Same with me and Jack Daniels. I couldn't stand the smell of whiskey for over 20 years after quaffing it like lemonade when I was 17.
Now...I find it very palatable. Although Gin is still my first choice.

Last week airport security tried to take away my box of hemorrhoid suppositories so I... oh, never mind.

[Mr. Blonde]

I'm not good with straight anything, and it better be a damn good time for me to take shots, but....White Russians can be serious trouble for me. Mixed right it tastes just like a YooHoo to me, and on occasion I have drank them like that is all they were.

I guess I need a few more lessons at the feet of the master.

I loved “The Great Lebowski.” Cheers Mr. Blonde. Do tip your next one towards Puget Sound.

[Michael Barnes]

tipping?

[VR-21]

Dammit you guys, all these posts have sent me to that cabinet in the kitchen! I'm no longer responsible for what I post. You guys are to blame. Cheers.
