Ye beat me to it!

Me too.

Where is she?

Sharon, I'm stupid drunk right now!  And you should see my cousin.  Hoooleeeeeee shit.

What a rare opportunity to communicate with you at the same level!  I lined up my CD's along the wall to see how long they were, and it's freakin me out because it looks like a python.  How can I go to sleep when there's a friggin python at the foot of my bed?  Are you drunk enough to empathize?  You around?

Hilarious!Laughing

I want to thank all those who remembered me when thinking of drunk chessplayersLaughing

The Soviet government was once trying to clamp down on alcohol and Tal said "The state versus vodka?  I'm on the side of vodka."

In Russia's past 400 years the only revolutions have been during vodka shortages.

In one of the early world championship matches, Steinitz drank unlimited amounts of champagne while his opponent drank unlimited amounts of brandy. Steinitz won, and he was very drunk by the end of every long game.

I seriously had a dream last year, where I beat Aronian, at my bar, with tons of people watching, because he couldn't handle his boozeLaughing

{Yes, instead of dreams about creating a great work of art, I have drunken chess dreamsLaughing}
