Been reading The Last Boy, and it clear this would have never happened to The Mick, though, obviously it should have. Different times, but still...jest sayin' BTW, [5] True, but not just Irish. Japan easily makes the best whiskey in the world, according to the experts. Suntory's Nikka has been the champ for 3-4 years now. [5] Agreed.

It was one of the very best things about having plenty of money -- and I don't even drink. I've often wondered why so many rich drunks insist on driving themselves. (Of course, per Lady Di, you have to make sure that your driver isn't drunk or all coked up).

I have been impressed with the small number of incidents. Drinking problems are medical problems, which should be addressed as such. Drug problems are medical problems, also. But, I am quite touched by the empathetic way you described the matter, in addition to the honest approach you took by publishing the photo.
