    From a song I had to play a couple of times a week when I worked in a Country Western dance bar.

    There's a tear in my beer
    'cause I'm cryin' for you,dear -- Hank Williams Jr.

    I think in one verse he says he drinks nine beers .
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…

    The "Tomorrow I'll be sober, but you'll still be ugly" quote is part of a conversation attributed to Winston Churchill.
    I wish I believed in reincarnation. Where's Charles Martel when you need him?

    Supposedly a riposte when Lady Astor complained of his drunkenness.

    A slight tangent, but my favorite quote attributed to Churchill:

    Woman [to Churchill]: Sir, if you were my husband, I would put poison in your drink.
    Churchill: Madam, if you were my wife, I'd drink it.

    Or the conversation with a young actress:

    Actress: Sir, we should have children together. With your brains and my looks, how wonderful they would be!

    Churchill: But Madam, think if it were the reverse!

    Churchill and booze:

    When beer and alcohol get mentioned, it's hard not to think of someone in particular and that someone for this thread seems to be Winston Churchill.

    Lady Astor (who had a re4lationship of mutual distaste with Mr. Churchill) introduced him once with the quip "if all the spirits he's consumed were poured into this room, they wouod come within six inches of the ceiling."

    Churchill walked to the podium, scanned up and down the walls and muttered into the microphone "So much to do, so little time".

    I'd rather have a bottle in front of me,
    Than a frontal lobotomy.


    It sounds better when someone is drunk. Cheers!
    I've found that most relationships work best when no one wears pants.
