Uh huh, yuup!

But what really bugs the **** out me is how someone thatis drinking can leave a half glass of wine or beer on the table. Or a half full bottle. I just don't get it!

Spoken like a true connoisseur of spirits! Young, man, there are drunks in India starving to death, finish your drink.

You're not missing anything. I get bored with it. More of a social drinker now (a couple). Only certain people that I get that drunk with. In CO, I'll be more of the quiet guy, watching and gauging. And by no means judging. Just seeing where I fit in the mix. I have always done that with new people I'm around. The Mrs. always tells new people (Docs and their significant others) how much fun I am and I just end up sitting there listening. Its kinda funny.

Don't Worry Mark, I'm sure our hands will be up and pointing at you too. Hahaha!

I can see the first few minutes now: We're all standing around staring at each other, finally getting a chance to size each other up.

Hahaha, yep. With Russ sitting in the middle with a rum and coke in a small plastic cup, sipping through the straw with a Hawaiian shirt on.
