not the reason why I stopped though, albeit probably the reason why I never became a full-on drunk. I'm just getting too old, and the psychotic 4-day hangovers too much to handle. at some point the fun is just not worth it anymore. at least not on a steady diet.
it's still good idea to get smashed often enough to avoid the jesus trip.

and they get psychotic, that's the worst part. throwing up is nothing. -first you're afraid you'll die, then you become afraid you WON'T!
I don't know how the Old Drunks deal with it. maybe that's why they go months or years without a single sober day. their hangovers must be cataclysmic.

It is also water soluble, meaning it will use up some volume when you take a leak. That in conjunction with drinking plenty of water will help you avoid dehydration and those splitting hangover headaches. Also, drink vodka since that has the least congeners of any type of alcohol.
can you elaborate that? what does the B vitamin do?

The picture of Tkachiev drunk is priceless. Imagine if wives of chess players saw it, they might use it as ammunition against chess players. What was Tkachiev doing drunk in India. Isn't it taboo to be drunk in that part of the world and people are flogged for it or where is it a model is being flogged for boozing?
