Make a leather holder for them and carry them around your waste and fill them up with your favorite liquor. A teacher of mine did somat like that. He was a chemistry teacher and he kept a row of t/tube on his desk. Each had a chemical sort of label on it. Each actually contained whiskey, brandy, rum etcetera. He knocked them back one after the other during the day Quote Al speling misteaks aer all mi own werk..

My first job as a machinist, I used to go out with the older guys during lunch and we always threw a couple drinks down. I couldnt imagine most employers today would be to happy. Quote

The steeplejack Fred Dibnah, who came to fame in the UK in the 70s for fixing or demolishing tall buildings using the original techniques where other contractors wouldn't touch the job, used to get criticised for having a "few" pints at lunchtime. In his words: "If I didn't av four beers in me I wouldn't av the nerve to climb bleedin thing!" Quote

alpha2 Posted March 11, 2018 Report Posted March 11, 2018 Okay. I'm 64 years old. I've seen A $H!TLOAD of videos in my time, some of them still classified and totally amazing, and filmstrips before that. And likely cave dwelling art before that in my life. I have NEVER enjoyed a video more. That's a fact. I have a new hero. Anybody that climbed that chimney smoking a cigarette all the way up, THEN go to work taking it down, a block at a time, (whilst inventing the method of doing the same), and say he's basically lazy, well, I got nuthin. My "lazy" is quite refined, with decades of practice, and I am shamed. And did I mention FUNNY!?? His bit about pissing down the center, or over the edge, and all the surrounding fields thinking "it's rainen"..I lost it. The trophy wife thinks I'm nuts. (She would know, she might be right).
