Obviously this is working for me.

I first heard this theory from "Cliff" in Cheers

I've never tried "drink and click", but I have to admit this thread is giving me ideas...

That's really unfair . After all , we're talking about "drinking" . No one said anything about pills , grass , shooting up , free-basing , or huffing houseold cleaning products : and Shavi did not deny use of any of those .

I drink continuously in copius amounts when I play. I also take pills, smoke dope, smoke cigarettes and dip snuff, while watching TV and playing monopoly as well; giving myself an excuse for being teribble.

PS almost forgot i also sniff glue, and other solvents just to give me a edge on the competition.

My memory is fading due to excesses of alcohol, might well have been Norm.

For an instructive demonstration of the evils of drink, have a look at my ratings graph, and guess which period of my play coincided with a conscious decision not to play moves whilst under the influence.

Then guess what happened when I thought 'what the hell'...:-)

I have a high pressure job and need to relax when I get home from work. My idea of relaxing is to throw 3 ice cubes in a glass, pour in slightly over half the glass with vodka (only ABSOLUT) and add in the mix. Then log into RHP and play my games and read the forums. 😵

How many of you drink to relax?

How many actual play chess while drinking??? 😲

I have been known to have the odd beer or three! 😵
