Same buzz; different hangovers. It's all the same liquor, just different concentrations. As for the hangover, it's all about impurities, and tequilla has plenty of them, particularly the cheap shit.

Mightn't there be other compounds that could, in combination with the alcohol, affect mood? I find that at pre-drunk levels, red wine makes me significantly happier/warmer/friendlier than other kinds of alcohol. Once I'm mostly drunk, the type of alcohol ceases to matter as much.

Is that how you explain the panties around your ankles when your parents walk in?

No, but it was how my mom explained the embarrassing moment when I walked in to the Jacuzzi-room to tell her and dad that I was home. ewwwwww When you are 16 that shit can fuck you up. I feel all squicky now.

Some chump (guy) was suing to play in an LPGA event.

When I was in high school, some dude at another school in our league was allowed to play on the girl's field hockey team, as there was no guy's field hockey.

In the end he was allowed to practice with the team, but rode the bench for games. Apparently he was awesome, and all the other teams in the league complained that he was too big/rough/good. To his credit, he at least would go to the games and sit on the bench and cheer for his teammates.

Maybe grapey wines have a happy flavor?

Of course, different liquors have different appeal. I like rib-eye steaks more than filet, and it's a more pleasing eating experience. but it's all beef. I don't think it's the buzz effect that's different -- it's non-buzz aspects of taste that may affect your feeling. Like Gwink's fire-in-the-stomach from rye. And champagne is noted for its "quick" buzz, because the CO2 bubbles cause the stomach to absorb alcohol more quickly. Regardless of what you drink, you'll end up in the same place, which hopefully is not bent over a toilet bowl.

Um, I give him credit only because he was smart enough to use this as a way to get laid. Maybe he thought being on the girls team would get him fucked regular? I don't know about anywhere else, but the girls field hockey team at my school had very few debutantes on it and if a guy would have joined the team (or even shown interest) he would have been sucked and fucked all season by these desperate chicks. I mean, not all of them could have been dykes, right?

Speaking of the mojito, is anyone who is anybody really still drinking these horrible mint syrups? I saw a couple of nice ladies order them in a Thai restaurant the other day. I thought to myself: "Jesus, what year is this?" You can maybe . . . MAYBE . . . get away with ordering one in a Cuban place. Anywhere else? Forget it. I half expected them to order apple martinis and start gossiping about the Monica Lewinsky scandal. Anyway, for people like RP who have presumably moved on, may I suggest the Pisco Sour. It is sweet, tangy, complex, and equally a pain-in-the-ass for your local bartender to make. What's not to like? As an added bonus, it is the hip drink for the summer of aught three, although most of you probably have your minty heads stuck too far up your mojito asses to notice. Anyway, give one a try when you have a a chance. Alternately, you can continue living in 1999. Send me a PM when you catch up to this century.

As if I needed another reason to be a martini drinker.

I know nothing about the sport, but I've always wondered why the sticks have to be so short. It looks very hard on the back.

Did he have to wear the skirt?

I'm surprised the school got away with not playing him.

IS the US the only country in which guys don't play field hockey?

EEEeeuuu parent-porn. My maternal-unit recently died and I was re-organizing stuff as my step-father was unable to do it, and I just had to see what was on that last video.

:eek2:

I used to play. I actually don't remember our sticks being that short. I never really thought about it. I know there are weight regulations for the sticks, but I don't know about length restrictions. It has been a while. Of course the sticks are shorter than ice hockey or floor hockey sticks, but it's a different game. I'm not sure if the fact they are short makes them so effective for whacking the opponent across the shins, but they are good for that. And that is really what field hockey boils down to sometimes.

I have never understood this. Why watch a videotape of you and your fuck-buddy having sex when you could just have sex? Or is there something erotic about having the camera running?

Why not?

I suspect that nobody would pay to watch it though because they would know that he'd probably win.

To put it differently, I know of many junior sports leagues that permit the 12 year olds, for example, to play above their age level in the 14-16 league if they are good enough. It is a quite different thing to allow a 16 year old to play in the 12 and under league though.

It's never been something that Mr. FuFu and I have been into. Why watch it when you can do it?

My sibs and I learned at an early age that there were times not to interrupt my parents.

In ninth grade or so, my sister's biology teacher was getting to the reproduction chapter, and he asked the class who could imagine that their parents had sex. My sister was the only one to raise her hand.

About two weeks ago, my parents were at a party with a bunch of my brother's friends, and one of them, having seen how much my parents seem to be into each other, asked my mom how many times a week they still do it. My mom, in her late 50s, instantly replied "six." Reportedly, jaws all over dropped, and my dad got all defensive, explaining that he has an early morning meeting on Tuesdays and they just don't have time.

I for one don't want to see my white ass bobbing up and down. Plus, these tapes always seem to wind up in the wrong hands. That would for sure ruin my political career.
