So, who has already started drinking?

[Cleita]

I've got my scotch and soda ready. It's the only way I can cope with Dumbya. It looks like I'm going to be forced to watch the speech after all. :beer:

:argh:

Who else is going to knock one down every time he utters a propaganda cliche?

:beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer::beer:

[Berserker]

1. I'm tossing back a few cold ones now

It's the only way I can handle it.

[davidthegnome]

2. Well...

I'll be having a few sips.

(Note, the above was a dramatic understatement, I'll more than likely be drinking until I start swearing at my television after which I will promptly fall asleep with my head on the table)

[Jeanette in FL]

7. Hee hee

Welcome to DU David. We have a blast here.

[Cleita]

13. Hey, the hangovers let you know how bad it is. n/t

[Jeanette in FL]

3. I'm with Cleita

Having a few beers by myself. I wouldn't miss this for anything in the world. The beer just helps to dull the pain.

[Nutmegger]

4. I'm just not going to watch it

:P

[buddysmellgood]

5. Sadly, I haven't stopped since they stole it in 2000.

[brook]

I thought it was supposed to start now.

10. I'm right there with ya!

I've got my ten-gallon drum of crack, a bale of pot, a bottle of Boone's Farm Strawberry hill and a can of that aerosol cheese.

I'm all set!

These are tough time and we must cope somehow!

[Cleita]

It was Apocalypse Now.

Uncork another bottle.

20. Maybe I'll get a glass of red wine--I don't normally but this'll be fun

Cheers! :beer:

[tlsmith1963]

21. I Don't Drink...

...but if these neocon fools stay in power much longer, I might be tempted.

Tammy

[Cleita]

22. Tammy, I gave up smoking fifteen years ago, but

I'm tempted to start again if this keeps up.

[BeHereNow]

41. Corona is my friend...

Gulp.:toast:
BHN
Ah, the lizard voice is slithering through my radio at this
very moment.
If I didn't have to work tomorrow, I would
be drinking scotch- lots of it.

[Libby2]

25. Oh, you meant tonight. nt

[Rick Myers]

26. Amen!

Ladies and Gentlemen, the Bonehead of the United States!!! Did I SEE Hillary walk in with Trent Lott!!!?????

[Cleita]

28. Is it okay to trip those who are reaching across the aisle?

eom

[bbinacan]

27. I started at 6 pm EST. I began with a couple of

Harp's and have descended through Michelob Lite to Bud. OK, I'm cheap.:toast: :beer: :beer: :beer: :grr:

[SeattleGirl]

29. Just got back from the liquor store

However, I think I may stick to a non-alcoholic beverage, or I'll be passed out on my ass before the 1st 15 minutes of the speech are over.

:banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :grr: :grr: :grr: :argh: :argh: :argh:

[Coexist]

30. Dewars and Soda in the house!!!

[madokie]

31. I'll have to pass but remember I told you so you'll be sorry tomorrow

hangover's a bitch and you know you are going to have one hell of one.

[Cleita]

33. It might be okay with me.

Hurt sometimes forces you to make decisions.

[madokie]

37. That it does

[Cleita]

40. OMG that standing ovation is making me go for the whole bottle.

I don't need a hangover to be sick. I'm sick right now.

:puke:

[colinmom71]

32. I started an hour ago...

And really shallow observation, but Alito couldn't at least show up in a dressier white shirt and nicer tie for his first SOTU address? He looks like casual Friday out there...

[pointblank]

34. Started at 5:30

Im gonna hurt tommorow!

CHEERS ALL. :toast:


I feel like Im watching the end of the world unfold right before my eyes.

[SmokingJacket]

35. Guess I chose a bad week to quit...

Oh, well, there's hardly a *good* week anymore.

I'll have to knit up a storm to relax tonight. I'm not watching, but just thinking about it is driving me up the wall.

[helderheid]

46. Good on ya. You're right. Never a good week (especially these days) 2 quit

[maveric]

36. I just cracked a longneck.

And six more in the fridge. :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer: :beer:

[soup]

38. Margaritas here,

and Alan Parsons rattling the windows loud -

"I wouldn't want to be like you"

[karlrschneider]

39. I have a 2 liter bottle of Crown Royal, started a few mins ago

...

[Cleita]

42. Well, so who really tied one on tonight?

Raise your hands, if you can. My impression is that we are going to get in lockstep or else.

[paradox]

43. hand raised!

n/t

[Coexist]

44. Feelin no pain.

[helderheid]

45. I worked out on my elliptical during the speech - NOW drinking. :)

[politicat]

47. Have one for me....

I'm on meds that do not combine well with booze.

Which is sad... I've got several bottles of things I'd like to drink right about now....

[mzmolly]

48. ME! I'm about to go out for

a smoke too, and I quit 7 years ago!
