well what do you know, a boozer with balls, howabout that,
lets have a contest to see how quick we can get a dui,
ever get to 1:45 am and you just need "1 more"
im talkin "george jones takin the lawn mower to the bar because his ol lady stole his keys" drunk.
i had a friend named ol piss who deliberatley tried to get a DUI up in Poetland,OR because he had 2 already and was skippin bail to arizona, then austin,texas, then arizona, then back to california where it all started, cant get away with that now, you got a suspended liscense in calif, you got a suspended liscense everywhere, frickin computers, anyway,
so he is drivin round portland with a bottle of tequilla hanging out the window, running red lights, honking his horn, trying his hardest to get a dui, because back then, in 1974, they just book you and let you go, no holding tasnk or nothing up in oregon,
took him 2 hours of drunk driving to get pulled over in downtown portland, go figure, wtf, over? jus sayin,
ol piss had many many stories like this, poor ol piss,
like when he drove from portland to arizona and stopped off at a casino and got drunk and blew all his gas money to escape to phoneix, then the busted leg which got him fired so he goes home and finds out that his girfriend ran off with a friend and took the rent check and furniture, so he goes to the bar and gets.....
a DUI!
and then on to austin,
did i tell you about the poodle dog saloon in austin when he pissed on the waitress for slow service and they fired the waitress for slow service?

Ya, from what i can recall, it was the same way in good ol' Mammoth Lakes in the 70's!
Ya couldn't get yourself arrested fer dui if ya weaved circles around one of their cruisers on yer way home or ya stalled yer dually/truck and passed out in the middle of the Main ST/Old Mammoth Rd. intersection while you were taking a leak out yer passenger window!!
Cuz it would have been bad for the #1 business in town(watering holes).
Prollie would have gotten yer ass towed though(or at least i did). Supposeit would be better than freezin ta deathin the middle of Main ST plus they would have lost one of their(#1 business)best customers.

Cowboy the mythical Larry of the High Country Sanitary Mule Team could drink and drive cattle. He certainly couldn't drive when drunk, but tried and tried to kill himself, only to destroy a NPS p/u and one of his own. He could DUI any one under the picnic table.
And climb a mean jam the nest morning. If you got him awake.
And then start all over again. "Put those beers away, Cowboy." "I'm working on it, Mouse."

"...it was the same way back in Mammoth in the 70's"
And worse!!
I wasn't joking when i posted that last night(perhaps being somewhat cynical, though).
And I am sure it hasn't changed much, cuz, I can recall an incident just after Shawn White won his Gold Medal for halfpipe(or whatever)and he was on GMA being interviewed live from his home in Mammoth(at the time)and when he finished Matt Lower(or whomever was conducting the interview)asked him what he was going to do now? and Shawn replied: "I am going to go get a beer at..."(Whiskey Creek/or one of the other bar/restraunts that i can't recall which). And Matt(or whomever)says "What, your only 18 years old, you can't do that!" to which SW responds, "Come on, Mammoth is a ski town...!" and you never hear another damn thing about it!!
Just Sayin...
Edit: And, btw, i also just left annother example which is sad but true regarding the ongoing and blatant hypocrisy regarding Mammoths history regarding narcotics on the June thread the OP deleted. I lived there and worked there(Mammoth)for 10+ years and stand by what i said!! Dean, at least, should checknit out! Prollie get me booted from ST once again, but at least I have the balls to speak up for what i believe is true!! Wish i could say the same for everyone!!
So, check out my recent 'edit' to the deleted June thread(I was able topost an edit to it, so you should be able to at least dig it up/locate it)!!
I am just thinking about our/your youth and their future...so go ahead and hate me for what I have to say, I believe it is worth being hated for!!
LATA(if i'm not booted off ST that is)!!
edit: btw, the above rant/point i made has nothing to do with this thread. I said the other night that i enjoy the thread and it is all in good fun(read my posts). But it was true what i said about Mammoth. I posted it origionally because i was just having fun with Dr, Sprock. Prollie wouldn't have said anything else about it, not here anyway. But it had a connection to what I also posted on Deans June thread(both were tongue in cheek but also cynical/true)and when Dean deleted his thread, I decided to speak up. Crying about June(which is tied to Mammoths apron strings)and be in denial in regards to the hipocracy/decadence that is Mammoth while being a supposed light/pillar to your community, is just plain pathetic in my mind. I hold Dean in very high regard. But when he deleted his thread(perhaps)because of an ugly/harsh truth i posted on it, it was time to speak my mind. Sorry that it just happened to unfold here Pete! But the June thread was deleted by the OP this morning, things just kind of worked out this way!!

Okay, I know it's Saturday AM, not Friday night and I have no alcohol content in me, but I've been traveling for a while and am just getting a chance to catch up with As The Taco Turns, TFNPWDP channel.
OK, so it's Thursday. I bailed, I suck. Pete - You do not suck. End of story. Do not argue with me, please.
I admit to being a fraud on this thread. I cannot remember the last time I was drunk. Does slightly inebriated qualify? I hope so, since this thread is great fun. And it's a rare Friday night that I have a drink, as my hubby is usually shooting comps on Saturday mornings. Saturday nights are a more likely time for me to have a glass of wine. See you tonight.

Saturday night posting while slightly inebriated - 2 glasses of white wine.
Inflammatory comment (on behalf of my sweetie): What is it with these target pullers who don't know how to score? He shoots a clean prone and they score it 4x, 5 - 10s and a MISS? And then they tape the target before he checks it???!!!?? Hello? When you're shooting that well, it's not that unusual for the round to go through the same hole...So then be gets an alibi and has to shoot the whole thing over again. Fortunately cleans it again.
Glad to be home in SF Bay and not on the road after 5 days in DC and the heat wave there. Climbing soon...

Phylyp nice to know you are on your way to the crags soon. I have envy issues with all older people who still get up the rocks, but am working at losing weight so I may only have to worry about asthma. I found a knee brace that helps lots, not too complicated, and free. I hope to get down to Vegas, where my niece lives and go sample the Reds. Keep up with the Whites tonight, moderately, of course. I switched from red to white last night and have a liter left to consume tonight. Reagan Library on Monday! Simi Valley is where I have been.
Someone's lying about those scores, but they are prone to do that. Take care.

yhhh it is good to be on top of the worlds,
mountain sprung water in my tin,
whole grain organic peanut butter melt to break my fast,
a little yoga
a little meditation
a little zen
as the day's light comes serenely thru the dag wood leaves
all the bills are paid,
the boss is outta my email,
the wife has nothing but praise,
all my projects are sent,
the kids are gaily joining forces,
im all god.
i'll just move this pile of firewood
to its crib,
ohh f*#k my ailbow just twanged sour,
i drop the large and guilty oak chunk
on my wife's favorite flower pot,
crash,
now the kids are fighting over mirror space,
the phone is ringing its my boss
and she is franticly messaging questions at me,
the ups guy shows up with 15 cardboard boxes
from amason,
the dog is terroring all,
im refluxing the partially digested
pb and bread into my mouth,
wife yells out that the sink is leaking,
my boss tells me that she needs my
hours on saturday,
thus no climbing for my.
my wellness gone.
my smile murdered.
my gait, limping.
pissing spring water,
time for a bloody f*#king ale or six.
ahh know, i've nothing of to complain:
i have a boss.
i have a kids,
i have a wife
i have a sink
ahh've an i
i have an all.
ahll is so more overwhelming
than nothing.

^^^ Wow! June 25, 2012 was my thirtieth Un-Anniversary! How much better to be spending it in Yosemite!
Anyway, I will be returning to Locals wine tasting room in Geyserville, California tomorrow, arguably the best darn wine tasting room in the world. Note to fellow dirtbags - it's FREE!
Then off to Cragman's friend Chris Benzinger and his award-winning wines.
Woo-hoo! Friday comes one day early in Sonoma!

1. Your current consumption: Just getting started-halfway through Pacifico numero uno
2. At least one inflammatory comment: I'll get back to you on this once I've been a member here for more than one day.
3. Why you are drunk and typing on McTopo instead of doing something worthwhile, like driving to the crag: How can I put this delicately? Ummm, how about "bowel discomfort" canceled my climbing plans tonight(come to think of it, beer probably won't help that much; might have to cancel these plans, too...)

Hard to beat Bowel problems, but since it is only Wednesday and my hip and hamstring are waisted. Let's pour another round and get on with life.
