This is how. I had portabello shrooms on the grill, was buttering up bread to put on the grill as well and trying to keep an eye on my 9 y/o in the pool with his friend, and my oldest says, "MOM! Can you toss me a bottled water up the stairs?" (You guys know where this going). So I said "Hold on a sec." Opened the fridge, grabbed a bottled water and go into the foyer. I look upstairs and he is leaning over the banister with a silly grin. I said, "You know I cant throw well, so you might want to come get it." He said, give it a shot Mom... the worst that can happen is that you can break the chandelier!" So I looked at the chandelier, then looked at my son... they were at least five or six feet apart. So I throw the bottled water up about 30 feet and OF COURSE! I am running for cover as glass is pouring down! So after the dust settled, he goes, "Have you had any wine?" And I havent!! I guess old reputations die hard.
So I guess the moral of the story is this: If you've ever had a drinking problem with multiple family members who know about it...never attempt to throw bottled water from the first floor to the second to one of these family members, unless of course you first take lessons. I will be happy to coach. :H Oh, and the lesson I told my son was, "Next time you want a drink, get your ass downstairs and get it yourself!"
