I just watched HBO's new documentary about Mickey Mantle.
It shows the speech Mantle gave, after undergoing a liver transplant, where he advises people to not abuse alcohol.
"...don't be like me. God gave me a body, an ability to play baseball...It was just wasted. I was given so much. I blew it. " -- Mickey MantleWell, God gave me a crippled body and barely the ability to walk. So, if it's all the same to you Mick, I'll just keep on drinking.
Stumble it!

I can't play baseball or do anything cool, so I guesss I'll keep drinking too. Save me chair at the bar!
Just because he wasted his life on alcohol doesn't mean we are wasting our lives on alcohol. Alcohol improves my life! So there, Mick!
I love the sober-drunk scale you have - that's friggin awesome!!!!
Awww...who needs a hug!
