    I get more programming done drunk on a saturday night (providing I work on a project of my own choosing) than I do all week, (reasonably) sober, working on the work I'm supposed to work on... Am I really the only one? :confused:

      No, I know more people who do a really lousy job during the week :D

            I spent all day working on a simple SSIS progress monitor. And I had a beer.

                I've certainly looked at my "drunk code" in the cold light of day and thought "What?", and "Why?" :laugh:

                  Long ago I used to often like a beer to 'take the edge off', and open my mind a bit, and get on really achieving some nice work, but toward the end of my drinking career, I gave that up when I found booze, very especially beer, made me lazy and only opened my mind to better things in life than work, like doing nothing.

                        I dunno, I'm sober now, and the code still looks pretty good. And most importantly: It works... :laugh:

                          This Sunday I tried to hack my soundcard; managed to get a couple more channels integrated into Pulseaudio. Not perfect yet, I'll be replacing the card with one that claims Linux as it's home, but I did a double take when sitting down with plenty of beer and I entered a new, 3-D world of music and video. :)

                            Once

                            per a year I try drink so match that I cannot separate between HW interrupt to SW exception. ;P
                            Twice per a week I drink a wine for to be softly drunk.
                            My doctor say

                            me to drink one glass of red wine per day, but I forgot to do this.
