I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.
Last summer before Katrina, Ernie Svenson showed me a copy of his favorite periodical, Modern Drunkard Magazine. I was reminded of the magazine when Ernie posted something about it the other day, including a link to the MDM web site. The site includes a page titled Wino Wisdom, which is close enough to "Minor Wisdom" that I thought I should study it. I found an item there, quoted below, that reminded me of something I wrote last month — I must say the drunk's quotation is pithier than my writing:
The optimist sees the glass half full. The pessimist sees the glass half empty. The drunk says, "Are you gonna drink that?"
Robert G. eschewing the philosophical for the practical.

Don't forget, The glass is twice as large as it needs to be.
