When my sons were small, I adopted a “Zero Tolerance” policy to drinking and driving. If we were at dinner and had a glass of wine, I made it a point to have my wife drive us home. I figure that I had to practice what I preached.
I only violate this principle for religious purposes: Passover. We have Jewish friends who invite us to Seder. You have what amounts to a couple of glasses of wine over about a 6-hour period with plenty of food. I figure I am safe.
It is ironic that I tend bar at church affairs (We’re Episcopalian; we don’t do anything without wine.) I do cheat, I do take a sip of each wine to make sure it’s OK. It would not do to serve bad wine.
Farm Out! Right Arm! go ahead make fun – I loved using those expressions back then. People would just stop, stare at me through their granny glasses and then start laughing when they figured out what I had said.

maybe they should settle for ginger ale instead at next year’s Christmas office party

Next year, don’t bring as much. You can only drink what’s there.

Too much of a good thing, Woodstock and Snoopy.

That is a lot better than drinking too much beer.

I wish they’d just skip the ones with Woodstock in them.

“And Merry Christmas, cat next door!”

“I think cat next door is getting the Christmas Spirit, Woodstock. That was only a half-hearted slash…”

No such thing as too much root beer, Snoopy.
