Like I said, it's not a period I'm particularly happy remembering, and if I ever acted like that again, I'd fully expect to be shot. These days, I'm far more involved with trying to be a good person, and far less concerned with being a streetfighter.
Training drunk was not something I did in those days. .....

It seems interesting that there would be so MANY parallels in the experiences... the resulting wisdom and kindness and patience...(goodness?)
While I can not claim the lineage, the training and recreational research are similar. How about PRETENDING to be drunk?
Talk about dirty tricks, eh?
