Most days I wake up and drink a glass of orange juice. Then I exercise for 1 to 2 hours. When the weather finally gets warm, I'll ride my bike for 20 miles.
But I'm retired. I don't have a boss and I can do anything I want every day. Today I woke up and got myself a beer. And then a 2nd beer. Around noon I'm going to text some strippers and see if they can come to my house. If not, I'll go to a strip club.

Sounds like a good plan

Day/morning drinking is very enjoyable. It would be great to be retired - and relaxing - and looking for dirty girls!

Jack, I remember when you made that thread about one of your all time favorite dancers and you referenced Riders on the Storm....another great Doors song.
I like the Doors a lot too

"BOOM, sippycup wins again! Sorry, I couldn't resist. ;)"
Lol no apology necessary. I know it's a joke on the board, but I personally always joke that I DO need a sippy cup, because even when I'm sober, whatever beverage I drink tends to run down my chin (lol) more than normal people.
So I was grocery shopping one day and happened to pass through the baby section (coincidence though, I have no kids) and they had these mini, maybe half-sized-looking bottles. One had a pink cap, and a love pink. So I look at it and it has the ounces measured on it like many bottles do, and it has 5 ounces. That's roughly the same as a glass of wine. The bottle was less than a dollar, so I figured, why not?

Drinking is not good. Drinking alone is even worse.

"It’s five o’clock somewhere"
I can stand by that.
Plus, I've always thought it was quite ridiculous that American society views early drinking as "wrong." Not everyone has a 9 to 5. What about people who work night shifts and want a glass of wine at X o'clock in the morning when they're off work? What about stay-at-home parents who'd rather drink while their kids are at school than at the home? What about retirees?
How bout a time frame not put on when it's acceptable to drink. It doesn't matter what time you drink, it matters that you do it responsibly (i.e not hurting others or yourself, etc).
The fuck. I'll drink at whatever time I please.

Right. I like when you go to the airport for an early morning flight and the airport bar is open. Nothing like a couple drinks to get you relaxed for a cross country flight.

Nina - you make several valid points. After thinking about it - there really is no reason to not have a drink early in the day.
Is it largely an American thing - to frown on day/morning drinking? It probably is - as it’s kinda stupid to frown on it.
Airport bars are great when I have an early flight. I can grab a beer or two before take off.
Log in to vote
I feel ya. Babe, I NEED a drink before taking off on a flight. And a Xanax and a Phenergan. People think I'm being stuck up when I say I only fly private or first class / business class. But flying scares the living shit out of me and I'd rather have a panic attack on a private jet or a first class cabin than in front of like 100 people.
Log in to vote
I agree Nina. I try to stick with beer and Xanax when I fly. It takes the edge off nicely.
I also agree with being up front. It seems much more relaxed in First Class - and that helps me to stay calm. It’s nice to have a drink while sitting at the gate.

If it was good enough for Jim Morrison and it’s good enough for Nina Bambina, who’s to argue? Plus, as a board on mongers with a smattering if strippers, we are all fucking rule breakers to begin with so the bar is open 24/7 as far as I’m concerned.

Drinking is not good!
Remember in Leaving Las Vegas, in the bar in the morning, they told him that he should be drinking coffee. Well that is what people think. But people who engage in habitual drinking are already having a problem.

Sorry Nina, but drinking is not good. Marijuana is not either. I know we have talked about this before, but learning to live in your own skin is a life's work. Someone who uses chemical mood alterants has not even begun. It effects there psyche, even when there is none of it in their blood.

A lot of people I know see it that way, praying to Jesus while drinking and getting high.

@realD: "I like when you go to the airport for an early morning flight and the airport bar is open. Nothing like a couple drinks to get you relaxed for a cross country flight."
Heck yes. Few weeks ago had a morning flight and strolling through terminal saw the open bar and had 2 pints before 9:30 AM along with my bagel & salmon. Was a great way to start a long flight.

SJG if you are so happy in your own skin why are you always trying to force your standards on others? Seems like a fools errand to me. In LV bars are always open, it doesn’t even register.

Sounds like an exceptional idea because retirement, like Vegas, is 24/7.

623, how have I tried to force any standards on anyone?
You just aren't used to someone who doesn't see things the same way you do.
I for one have no use for people who believe in alcohol, marijuana, or any of the rest of it.

Belief in alcohol and drugs is often closely linked to Born Again Christianity.
Some like iced cold Jesus, because they can just guzzle him down.
Others like distilled Jesus, consumed in small sips, so that most of just goes through the soft tissues under their tongue, only vapors making it to their throat.
Others are Jesus mainliners, holding a spoon over a flame, and then injecting that warm Jesus directly into their veins.

Good escort friendly TJ hotels, just outside of the Zona. Rates tend to be better, and certainly quieter and more laid back.

Well, SJG. The times are a' changin'!
Protestants are talking to Catholic, Jews are talking to Muslims, and Baptists are even talking to other Baptists in the liquor stores.
:-D
Log in to vote
Yes, they are talking to each other. But far more than before they divide the world into Christians and Not Christians.
Catholicism used to not be like this.
And still, ever more than before, Jesus is their opiate.
