Other than phone calls from my daughters, I am enduring this day of my birth with one of Scotland's greatest achievements; Scotch Whiskey. Whyte & Mackay to be exact. What would the world's leaders have decided over history if not half pissed on Scotch ? If they were tea drinkers, would they have made better decisions ? Likely not. Most world changing decisions were made over too many glasses of alcohol. The Romans had their wine, the ancient British had their Mead. Churchill drank (scotch). Most Canadians know John A. MacDonald as the guy who appears on the ten-dollar bill. Infamously, he was also an unstable alcoholic, and would often show up to Parliament drunk. On and on it goes. So basically, most Western countries were founded on booze. The Islamic countries, not.
We are a stoned world, always have been. How else could one handle reality ? Before you lecture me, take a look in your bathroom cabinet, whether it may be prescribed or otherwise.

dcj22: Unfortunately, getting loaded isn't the solution to everything.
this is true Dana. The one thing I am better at I've noticed is when I play pool. Sobre I can't get those balls in for the life of me, if Ive had a few. I shoot like a champ, I have flukes some beautiful shots.

mbcasey: I have no idea what half that stuff is.....
Just imagine how much harder it would be if I used half the normal crap girls buy, took any kind of non holistic medicine, or lived a jet setter hollywood lifestyle.
