What is the earliest time you can start drinking without it being all weird and creepy? It's 12:45 for me here, that's good enough...right? It's past noon, it's not morning anymore. Or am I just greasy?

I have always felt that NOW is a great time to drink.

Love this topic, Raster

Okay, so all through the work week, I am a big talker...can be heard saying, 'Arrrrgh! I sure could use a Bloody Mary...with salt!' @ say...6:20am-ish? Come mid day and several contributing stressful factors later, I move on to my voddy/pineapple dreams. I get home? I look at the alcohol, and that's about the extent of my drinking during the work week. Occasionally, will I enjoy cool, refreshing drinks on hot, HOT afternoons preceded by an awfully crazy, busy day. But otherwise, that pending doom of having to get up at gawd awful hours in the AM keeps me from over-indulging in my 80 proof.

Now? Take a nice week long camping trip? Dont be surprised to see my rowdy group crackin into that 18-pk at around 10am...with that all too familiar phrase pouring from our lips: 'It's Beer:30 SOMEWHERE!!'

Those who eat/sleep/dream/crave drinking know no time. Those of us who ponder time constraints of entertaining thoughts of throwin back a few, really? Shouldnt worry bout the time either. Just typin that all out loud.

Age 12 sounds good to me. Haven't stopped since.

I feel ya there, it's nothing to ride around and see kids sixteen or seventeen drinking and driving with a dip in and a cigarette hangin' out the window.

If its sunny and nice out, get on it early before noon is fine.

If its raining and horrible then no point enjoying a glass in the sunshine

As for weekdays its generally not advisable to have a drink before or during work. Afterwards is fine.

But but but drinking on rainy days is more fun, as you have less to do!

oh yeah, I know that sounds bad.
I'm not an alcoholic.. well maybe a parttime one.
