#7 I have heard that true alcoholics don't suffer hangovers It's usually the 7-AM 'hair of the dog' that prevents that. |

#6 You see it all the time before Congressional Committees... Remember Lois Lerner "Taking the fifth" (*hic*! Barkeep pass me another!) in testimony? Was that a 'fifth' of rotgut or Chardonnay? |

#5 I have never suffered a blackout. I do know of a guy who left his van somewhere and couldn't remember where he left it. He reported it stolen so the police would find it for him. Two weeks later they did. I know of a woman who was an alcoholic and suffered blackouts who, after a drinking binge and a blackout, said she woke up going down the road in an 18 wheeler and she had not clue where she was going or how she got there. So, it happens. I have heard that true alcoholics don't suffer hangovers but I don't know for certain. |

#4 Of course three or drinks a day is binge drinking. Plus you are an alcoholic. Time to switch to reefer. Then you're bjust practicing an "alternative lfe style" |
