Re: Drinking alone.
Judge, no offence but I'm not sure given your limited experience with what is hip (to coin a phrase from a band that an elderly gentleman might remember -Tower of Power), your suggestions may be not be top notch. I'm mean, heck, you're a grandpa and a family man, I'd rather hear from the guys on the cutting edge. Drinking alone with music or movies is way out there. Like the Beatles. Or the Drive-by Truckers.

Re: Drinking alone.
Well, Judge, I'm taking my cues from you. This whole having a beer alone is rather intimidating. I do have a dusty bottle bottle of Ten High, maybe I'll take a sip. This is very exciting.

Re: Drinking alone.
Good on you. Now tomorrow when you wake up and the chair is in the car and you're in the kitchen using the empty plastic handle as a pillow be sure to look for your charge card receipts.

Drinking alone. What all logical alcoholics eventually turn to.
Getting drunk was good. I decided that I would always like getting drunk. It took away the obvious and maybe if you could get away from the obvious often enough, you wouldn't become obvious yourself - Bukowski

Well well well. For my own benefit with a bucket of gotdam American sparklies with a big fat ice cube rocks schloshing with Kentucy glass casually glistening with a Papal blessing of the deep Appalachia. WAVE OUR GOTDAM flag.

Re: Drinking alone.
I dink alone all the time. But that's partly because I study in a town where I don't really know anybody. Well, apart from the casual nod-at-them-while-you-pass-them-on-the-street-kinda-way. I have one lady friend that drinks coffee with me once in a while ("Coffee" usually meaning we go out on a thursday and drink three pints and chat). Drinking alone is alright, at least nobody screws with my playlist.
