Re: It don't mean nothin' drive on
Thanks
I just finally got a phone call from this alcohol treatment guy and they can see me in 5 days. He asked me about my drinking and I told him where it was at before and where it is now. He said he thought I'd done really well, but would I please drink some more for now, because I have detoxed too fast and I'm at risk of a seizure
First time a health professional has told me to drink more...

Re: It don't mean nothin' drive on
My uncle claimed his doctor told him to keep drinking, said when he stopped he felt like crap, so the doc said to keep it up. Mind you, this was a man I saw put down a 1.75L bottle of Seven Crown (Canadian whiskey) in about seven hours, then drive back to Florida. I've known some hard drinkers but Uncle Floyd takes the prize. I figured he felt like crap because he had the hangover from Hell.Highspeed wrote:Thanks

Track your intake and ramp it down at a rate acceptable to the doctor?Highspeed wrote:Thanks

ETA: I need to get a doctor's note to drink more. My wife disapproves, and I don't seem to suffer by not drinking, but once in a while is fun.
Note to self: start reading sig lines. They're actually quite amusing. :D

Re: It don't mean nothin' drive on
Damn. I've only done something close to that once ,and I felt like hammered dogshit for three days. I actually had people calling the house, inquiring if I was still alive. the fact that your uncle was functional enough to drive back, says a lot.MarkD wrote:Mind you, this was a man I saw put down a 1.75L bottle of Seven Crown (Canadian whiskey) in about seven hours, then drive back to Florida.

Re: It don't mean nothin' drive on
it was a daily thing for him. He drove up to visit my Mom after she was diagnosed with cancer. Walked in with two handles of seven crown, one with so much in it (holding fingers maybe five inches apart) and the other sealed. Got there about 10:00 am. Left about 5:00 pm, the part bottle was gone and the full one had so much in it (again, five inches). I wouldn't have believed that anyone could put that much whiskey down his gullet in that time and be vertical if I hadn't seen it with my own two eyes.HTRN wrote:Damn.

Wshen he pulled out the bottle I went looking for a high ball glass, he said "Here's one!" and pulled out a 20 oz iced tea glass, mixed a third to half of crown with whatever soda we had and drank them all effing day. One would've put my ass under the table. Oh, in case it wasn't clear, the air in the first bottle was once Crown, don't know when he drank it but it may well have been on the trip North.
I'm not kidding when I say I've known some hard drinkers, my Dad was a fifth-a-day man for many years, but I've never known anyone who could drink like Uncle Floyd. For the record, he died before my mother, and my mother lasted six months after her diagnosis.

Yeah, hard drinking amongst working class whites on si, bordered on being a stereotype
