Runs in the family. I wonder if Charles has ever been captain of the SS Oldsmobile like Teddy was?

Great headline. Thanks for the post. This will be a well-used thread, I hope.

Please, recap all those Teddy Swimmer jokes.

Did he really say "drink problem"? Maybe he was in the midst of a "drink problem" at the moment.

I married into a Boston Irish family and I can tell you this:

The difference between an Irish wedding and an Irish funeral is on less drunk.

> [UK] Liberal Democrat leader Charles Kennedy has
> admitted he "been seaking to cope with a drink problem".

And liberal legacy media outlet BBC admits it has been
"seaking" to cope with a spelling problem.

"seak" doesn't even spell-check.

"I have no drink problem. I drink, I get drunk. I get drunk, I fall down. I fall down, I go to sleep. No problem."

That the way the Brits say it....they use the word "drink" in the same way we use "alcohol" or "booze".

Charlie needs to go a lot longer than 2 months before he can consider his problem whipped.
