A public health definition of binge-drinking is the consumption of at least five standard-sized alcoholic drinks on one occasion.

Oh, please. Five measly drinks is a "binge"?

Try this crap when you are 34, that's when your youth catches up with you.

I thought it was safe to assume that 90% of Euros are either:

Blind Drunk, Drunk, Starting to get Drunk, on their way to getting drunk, coming home after getting drunk, working to support their drunkenness, and/or working to support someone else's drunkenness.

I just assumed...So the article really does come as a surprise.

I get up at 7:00 A.M. and retire between 9:00 and 11:00 P.M., I average one Budweiser every two waking hours.

I enjoy getting "knee walking drunk" myself from time to time.

The UK is one of the few places I have been where the idea of eating even a mere snack before a night out is considered bad form due to its inhibiting effect on rapid absorbtion. For those still concious after a number of rounds, it's curry time (naturally washed down by at least a lager or even an ale). I've tied a few on while over there, but never to the point of being blind drunk.
