Well, personally, I don't get drunk, if that's what other people equate with intoxication. As for myself, I just get a buzz on and then go to sleep at eight o'clock or so. I don't go to bars or parties, I've never drunk and driven in my entire life, I only consume legal substances, and all kinds of boring stuff like that. It's been interesting (very interesting!) to see the kinds of reactions my original post has elicited. I don't think I'll do anything of the kind again because I get the feeling I'm stepping on the corns of some vulnerable people, which I really don't want to do at all. I'm an elderly man who likes to have two or three drinks of an evening with his wife and then go to bed. Not terribly exciting. But I certainly felt like the fox among the chickens after I'd posted here! Squawk!!
