• I’m a moderate. I have voted Liberal, Conservative, and even Green.
    I’m pro-life. That is, i am anti-death penalty, anti-euthanasia, and pro-life. Having said that, i disagree w/ DF regarding Terry Shiavo - i think that forcing her to eat in order to keep her alive against her express wishes is assault, and i would have little trouble removing the feeding/breathing tube in her case. At the same time, i agree w/ DF regarding Marijuana - it should be decriminalized.
    Oh yeah - i’m a doctor (a resident right now) studying family medicine. I hope to spend time in 3rd world nations serving people who actually really need help (unlike about 90% of the patients i see every day).
    I’m swingin’ single with no kids. I also love to travel, spending up to a month at a time outside of the country every year (i studied in Portugal for a month, practiced in Belize for a month, and packed around Cuba for 3.5 weeks).
    I’m a Christian - a Mennonite by background and faith, however currently i’m a “non-denominationalist” (which is very similar). My beliefs in the religious-spiritual sense i believe are “moderate to progressive”, however I put Jesus’ teachings above all other teachings and beliefs.
    With regard to A&A, i love playing Japan, but i can enjoy any side pretty much.
    Finally, i’m a Canadian. Like everyone else in the world, i believe that mine is the greatest nation in the world. At the same time, i can identify problems and things that need to be changed, and one day i will effect some of these changes.


  • Supports gun ownership, death penalty, and free enterprise.

    Still a liberal though.

    Have fun feeling like Sh*t the next day…smoking doesn’t do that to you…not that I would know… :o


  • Naw. I drink Wisky and I am a wuss. My version of drink heavily probablly would not even get Dzrt started. Put the kids to bed then pull out the bottle. Only thing I will get is a decent nights sleep. CC could tell us why that’s bad. Whatever, I need sleep!!!


  • my friend is obsessed with whiskey…it’s disgusting in my opinion…


  • Well I really like the hard stuff. I kinda wish I had never tasted really good booze. I am a poor boy. Wife gets me the stuff you can either drink or clean lime deposits off your shower. Bright side is, if I pass out in the John what I spill will clean the floor really good. Just don’t get any on your shirt. It’s like that scene in Aliens when he gets the acid blood on him. Cheers! See you all tomorrow! Or maybe later. Don’t expect me to be up to these high standards though.

    Funny you should say that, I played a Game of revised this weekend I was Russia and the UK in a 4 PLayer game. I drank about 3/4 of a fifth of Jamison and still pulled off a resounding victory. Muhahaha….

    if you like, i could tell you why drinking alcohol before you go to bed is counterproductive (this is the kind of thing i tell my patients, anyway). 8)

    please do…i don’t know what you mean by “counterproductive”


  • CC,
    Crud. Wish I woulda read this before I opened the bottle! :) I woulda still opened it course, but I like to be informed.
    I don’t really drink much. I will probablly put away 12 oz or so. Decent amount of wiskey, but I don’t drink often. I am certainly feeling relaxed atm.

    it’s all about GABA receptors.
    When you first drink, yes, the alcohol relaxes you. This is because of its effects on GABA receptors. These receptors are responsible for excitation. If you block them off (with drugs like Ativan/Valium/Imovane, and alcohol) then you decrease the stimulation you’d otherwise be bombarded with and fall asleep more easily. The kicker is early in the morning when the drug gets excreted from the body. All of these receptors that were previously tied up are now suddenly open for business. This is why you are wide awake too early in the morning, this is why people require a “hair o’ the dog” in the morning, and this is why we give Valium to people who come into the ER with delerium tremens secondary to alcohol poisoning.
    was this more than you wanted to know?
