Dude, am I driving?

Another fine moment in alcohol use.

The story is funny but the writing is funnier. An eensy-weensy story with 6 references to someone being sloshed (counting the headline). What's an underpaid copy monkey to do? "Drunken" sounds so weird; he wanted to say "drunk," but the dog-eared stylebook told him it has to be attributive, so "drunken" it is. After three drunkens the story's only half done, but he's not feeling so good himself. Damn--the word "drunken" looks really stupid now. No worries: He chucks in "inebriated" instead. And again. And again!

--It's this sort of thing that made the Captain into an inebriated sailor that no one knows what to do with.

The van provides a much needed service in the colder months, keeps the number of dead people laying in the streets down. When they talk of the beauty of Alaska, they don't tell you this part.
