My Uncle runs on beer. It is amazing.

He can run a marathon! One of the fortunate few!

I guess he cancels out the AL with productivity!

I guess I'm a "working alcoholic" as well. I, like some above have mentioned, get a kick off in the am before work, top it back off at lunch, top it off again after work, maintenance dosages every hour till bed, then start again tomorow. The hang over thing, In my opinion, is because we have all "climatized" ourselves or built up a tolerance to the stuff. I started out with a half pint of Vodka and have worked myself up to a fifth/day. I do have issues when trying to stop. (Panic, no sleep, stomache trouble, etc.) I have just always kept a buzz during the day and then finish the evening with a slow road to unconsciousness. I wasn't always this way, and I don't want to be like this any more.

I refuse to divulge my proprietary techniques, for fear someone might use them!

The problem is; there's no end to it. You just keep needing more and more. It starts with a nip in the night, and then in the morning, and maybe something at lunch, or leaving a bit early. Coming home and grabbing a glass before my tie is off. Going through 4-5 units before dinner. And no matter how much you try, your body and your brain need more and more. It's like "Little Shop of Horrors" FEED ME SEYMOUR!

IMO the only way out is to stop the train. Change tracks. Get completely out of the rut. Carve a new path and leave the old one behind.
