Like the joke about the four college dudes who were out drinking till the wee hours and were all late to the semester final. They tell the professor they ewre late because they had a flat tire on the way in.
So, the professor agrees to give them a make-up exam the next day. When they arrive for the test, the prof puts them in four separate rooms. They open the exam book, which consists of a single question: Which tire?
You're not serious.
Well look at the good news though. At least this Kennedy didn't kill anyone.
Right?
Phenergan is some really strong stuff. My hubby's a big guy...6'5", 265 lbs...and one dose of Phenergan knocked him solidly on his arse for a full day. That was the first and last dose he'd ever taken...he decided throwing up was preferable.

I can understand. When I broke my ankle a few years back, I was given a prescription pain reliever (can't remember the name now) that not only warned, "do not drive or operate machinery", but also, "do not sign any contracts." I had never seen a warning like that before. I took one pill -- didn't make me sleep, but it did turn me into a zombie. That was enough. I tossed those pills.
Alcoholic son of an alcoholic father...the grandparents? Probably were also on Rose's side...
Exactly.
From a post of mine on another thread:
Isn't that what they always do? It's SOP for the Kennedys.
First they have to call ALL their advisors in and brainstorm how to handle it; then he'll come on TV, probably in a living room setting, and have a "heart to heart" talk with all of the country.
I'm so tired of this long therapy session we've had with this family for the last 30 plus years.
It's too bad Burke Marshall is dead, isn't it?
OOOHH!! Good one!
"No way. I really believed that he was rushing to Congress for a critical floor vote at 3 in the morning. "
As I understnd it if you are in the act of working you are immune from any prosecution.
Rush is making Cynthia's point. hehe
Phenergan can knock a person on his arse, too. When my wife takes half a dose to combat extreme nausea brought on by migraine headaches, it typically puts her to sleep for an hour or two.
Drunks have 3 choices:
1) Sobered up.
2) Locked up.
3) Covered up.(with dirt)
Exactly right and choice No. 4:
Some innocent pedestrian or other driver is covered up with dirt because of a drunk driver.
I didn't think so. Rank has its privileges.
Or, as Howie Carr, the inveterate Kennedy Hater says:
The Olive doesn't fall far from the martini...
Rush reporting that he has a source saying that they have Patches' bar tab...
You can listen to him at "www.howiecarr.com" starting at 3PM (Eastern time).
Just tuned in Rush. He says credible sources now have Kennedy's bar tab from Wednesday night.
So, it will probably be released soon. He lied. Now he is getting caught.
"DING DING DING! What do we have for her, Johnny?"
You are correct on both counts. This is known as the super stuper duper drunken buy off! I wonder if you or I were stopped we would be offered a ride home by the officer(s) and not given any citations. Oh, sorry my ambien made me a little demented. I apologize for my prior sentence. /sarcasm/
Phenergan as an antihistamine? I use it for anti-nausea. Using it for sniffles is kind of like killing a fly with a sledgehammer. That stuff will knock you on you butt in no time flat!
