I took some allergy medicine before a presentation once... I was totally loopy. The filter between my brain and my mouth is already pretty permeable, and the medicine bulldozed the sucker right down.
Actually, a beer at lunch time seems to improve my staff's performance. A half dozen beers just causes them to cut their fingers off.
It doesn't work for me though. I discovered that even one beer caused me to blow shifts on my motorcycle. Two or three caused me to brake incorrectly. (Braking on a motorcycle is not like braking in a car...there are two braking systems, that is, front and rear, which have to be closely monitored at all times.)
Three beers and I refuse to operate even hand powered machinery! I seem to miss the anvil with my hammer! I try to saw wood with a screwdriver. Four...I start to lie. Five, I start to lie down and sleep.
When I was in the military, I was occasionally sent on detachment to Newfoundland. The most I ever drank in one day was 26 ounces of "woods dark rum". Of course, I did that at least once a week. Its not so bad if you mix it with chocolate milk, and eat oily herrings. The fish prevent you from throwing up you see. Well, the idea of tasting those herrings again will give you strength...trust me on this!
I don't drink like that any more. I just eat the fish and chocolate milk instead. Gives the same queezy feeling that 3 cans of Mau'dit give you.
Mmm... la Maudite. I wish I could get it in a keg size. But most of my friends don't like it... I'd be "stuck" drinking it myself (oh no, please don't twist my rubber arm).
Stag your guidelines speak of your wisdom :D. I keep far away from any sort of vehicle while under the influence. Except for bicycles and golf carts in my youth (no I don't golf, but I love wrecking the carts :D ).
Good ones. I went to the dribbleglass site and collected the text to some additional ones. There's something about the corporate generality of the "real" messages that bugs me. However, I get the same reaction to some of the posters in Christian bookstores.

This has the Zlanth Seal of Approval(tm) :D
Don't most people do this already? Not that I would know. I don't give presentations.
