I got Kings hockey and the MIN/TB game, Dave. Huge implications there for us if the great, young Jameis can beat those suckers in MIN!

Gonna need to start on a new six pack here shortly. Down 15 now. Feeling warm :D

That's a complicated question.

I've had to deal with functioning alcoholics and they don't think their actions harm anybody else; however, that is far from true in my experience.

The complicated part is comparing the alternative. You're "functioning" so it could always be worse if you can't function without doing it.

If you have kids, then the time that they spend with you is the time that you're not at work. What percentage of non-work time are you drinking? You don't want your kids to only know your intoxicated personality.

Even if you only have a couple of drinks per evening, that can be a beat-down for people around you if you do it every day.

I know a guy that was drinking too much and decided to make changes. Instead of quitting, he made a pact with himself to not drink on consecutive days. It really worked well for him and his wife was very pleased.

If your wife or girlfriend or ones in the past have ever complained about your drinking, then you likely have a bit of a problem. If not, then there is a good chance that you don't.

X, sorry I'm barely getting around to answering you, I've been on a 7-day "vacation" :)

My family never says that drinking is causing me to be away from them or not function around them, at work (I work for my father), around my son, or with friends and other loved ones.

But my premise was the fact that I drink so damn much and don't seem to effect anyone in the negative. I have a little boy that adores me and a family that also loves me and would surely tell me if they began to get overly worried. Maybe I'm in severe denial and néed to slow down for the sake of my own health.

I appreciate your feedback, my brother, X. Thank you, and sorry for the delay :)
