I do have a grudging additional respect for 
those who can fulfill their duties while half
in the bag, especially when they do them with
skill and flair rare among the sober.

That doesn't sound insuperable. And the lungs,
they go into animal food, and we're exposed to the
contaminants anyhow, second hand.

There is no reason why the Cargill company
can't carefully and safely remove them, at
the cost of mere seconds' time.

2 oz Irish whiskey

[This] was a favourite drink at the bars of the House
of Commons, during the reign of the Uncrowned King.

The yolks of two eggs, well beaten, were placed in a
large tumbler, a little sifted sugar was added, and a
small tumblerful of hot milk was gradually stirred
into the mixture. Last of all a large wine-glassful
of John Jameson was added.
