2. Have some tea or soda it's only 1:30 in the afternoon
if you start drinking now, you'll be asleep by 7:00.

10. On the other hand
I just went to the GD Primary forum again (I know masochistic) and I'm ready for a gin and tonic right now.

(and I don't drink anymore but if I read any more of that shit I think I'll start again).

16. Get a Sam Adams Holiday 12 Pack and drink the whole thing!
That's my plan at least...

You get the Fezziwig Ale and the Cream Stout, amoung others (yum...)

I may drink half of it tonight celebrating Festivus, we'll see!

The first one might taste funny, but after that you will be fine.

27. I found the world's GREATEST SHOT using Jamesons
It also uses Bailey's Irish Cream, and is chased by Guinness:

First pour 3/5 of a shot of Bailey's
Next pour 2/5 of a shot of Jamesons inside of the Bailey's (i.e. try to have the Bailey's surround the Jamesons)

Next drink it down, and immediately chase it with the Guinness...

Merry Christmas!!!

34. It will be over soon
I certainly understand your sentiments about the holiday. I feel much the same way, and so do most of my friends and family! At any rate, however you celebrate (and whatever you drink!), I hope it is peaceful and relaxing, at the very least. Cheers to you and all the best for 2004! :toast:
