8. I hear you, Polybius.

I worked in the restaurant and bar business for 24 years before I moved on to greener pastures and I was always afraid of that. I've seen people come in, sit down at the bar, looking and acting as sober as a judge, have one drink and fall out on the floor. As a matter of fact, I worked one place where a district judge was a regular at lunch and he passed out at the table and the owner said anyone who cuts him off is automatically fired. I refused to serve him so someone else did. Then he woke up and I assume, went back to court for the afternoon docket, sending drunk drivers to jail, no doubt.

I got hundreds of stories like that and I'm sure you do too, Polybius.
