"Son,  never trust a man who doesn't drink because he's  probably a 
self-righteous sort,  a man who thinks he knows right from  wrong all the 
time. Some of 
them are good  men, but in the name of  goodness, they cause most of the 
suffering in the world.  They're the  judges, the meddlers. And, son, never 
trust a 
man who drinks but   refuses to get drunk. They're usually afraid of 
something 
deep down  inside,  either that they're a coward or a fool or mean and 
violent.  
You can't trust a  man who's afraid of himself. But sometimes, son,  you can 
trust a man who  occasionally kneels before a toilet. The  chances are that 
he is 
learning  something about humility and his  natural human foolishness, about 
how to survive  himself. It's damned  hard for a man to take himself too 
seriously when he's  heaving his  guts into a dirty toilet bowl."

Rummy - That one is so good I sent it on to our old buddy Steve Mutart,  
still an Eagles fan in sunny southwest Florida.
