Re: I think I'd make a piss-poor alcoholic
I’m somewhat ashamed to say there isn’t an empty spot in my well filled life single malt scotch whisky hasn’t been able to fully replenish. I have come to believe the gods have inspired it to the Scots –as indeed it seems to have been imported by “spirited” Irish priests in the north of Brittany.
As Bukowski said, forget all the naysayers, it’s really difficult to be a real drunk, it takes amazing adherence, almost athleticism. I unfortunately don’t have such a wonderful luxury anymore, having the health problems of my age, bit of hyper tension, etc. But I haven’t quit yet…

Re: I think I'd make a piss-poor alcoholic
Drunk is dull. The taste of great whisky - a peaty single malt - of champagne, of a fine red wine, of a good dry white, of a good Gewurtztramminer, of a top Bourbon or Irish whiskey... of a fine brandy, of top vodka....these are all good. And they do tend to make you drunk. Which is dull.

Re: I think I'd make a piss-poor alcoholic
I enjoy the taste of a good adult beverage but I hate the loss of control that comes along with to much drinking. These days with my tolerance the way it is I tend to get full or sick before I get drunk anyway.

Re: I think I'd make a piss-poor alcoholic
Yeap, Prospero, Wendy is right.. But there’s pretty much the same relation between the quality of the inebriation as there is between the quality of the different beverages. A good scotch gives you witt; at least I can’t find myself to be a dull drunk and I won’t ask around…
