The classic Peter O'Toole story is that he took a drinking pal from a bar over to a nearby theater to see a play that he thought was really good. At one point, he leaned over to his pal and said, "You'll like this next bit. This is where I come on." My Favorite Year - a solid O'Toole flick. On the Dick Cavett show, Dick Van Dyke talked about getting drunk virtually every night of his life since he was a boy, but said he never drank until his work day was over.

I’m so pleased that Elizabeth Taylor’s involvement in bringing AIDS awareness into the mainstream was mentioned-her impact on normalizing gayness as a part of life’s panoply of paths was _ENORMOUS!_ The sweetest and most wonderful person I have ever known was the first person I’d ever heard mention AIDS (still known as “gay cancer” at that time), and I can remember telling him “don’t be silly, cancer doesn’t know you’re gay,” because even though my life was/is mostly gay-centered, I wasn’t a gay man in the 1980s. He died in 1988, and I still cry on his birthday and tell him how much I love him, and miss him, and think of him. I’m crying now…gotta go

Ollie Reed... Lovely bloke. He was getting on a bit when I was on a film with him. He couldn't really drink much and one evening he got into a bit of an argument with the director's brother. Ollie ducked the first punch then laid the fella out cleanly. This was then reported by the gutter press, saying he'd had two bottles of whisky, etc etc... He'd just finished the one and only pint he drank that evening - no whisky chasers, nothing under the table. He was quite frail really, but utterly disarming and not the flip side egomaniac you would come prepared for. I'm glad I didn't meet him when he was younger though, many who had worked with him before said they were surprised, amazed, at the change in him.

“Wild” drinking. “Wild” parties. We always romanticize bad behavior related to alcohol. Many of those who are under the influence are violent, and intolerable. No other intoxicant is treated the same way, and I cannot fathom why.

WC Fields was a master juggler and could do amazing things with a pool cue. All that while being a roaring alcoholic. Of course, when most of these people were young, children were abused by adults and sent into mines and horrible factories. They likely had to forget those horrific childhood traumas.

According to Wikipedia William Holden was such a drunk that he killed himself. He was at home, alone and got so drunk that he fell and cut his head. But, he then passed out and bled to death. It's also said that director John Ford had to schedule every scene he did with John Wayne in the morning because Wayne was always drunk by noon.

The worst drug of all is tobacco, namely cigarettes with its powerful nicotine, the biggest killer of all.

Your point is clear, but I don’t think tobacco is considered a drug. The most dangerous and destructive drug is ETOH…alcohol.

@@The_Hutchyboy Something you’re overlooking is that whoever drinks alcohol harms only their body. Whoever is smoking creates secondhand smoke and harms others. I think the numbers are clearly tobacco unfairly adversely affects more people even including drunk driving.

There's a thing done by college students called 'The Newman Challenge.' Named after actor Paul Newman who once remarked, ' 24 beers in a case, 24 hours in a day--coincidence, probably not,' which may or may not be accurate but Mr. Newman was known as a beeraholic. The idea is to drink 24 beers in a 24 hour period. I don't think it's pleasurable for anyone except a hard-core alcoholic but some folks like challenges and rise to the occasion (or lay on the floor in a drunken stupor.)

[@ejl1221]

My friends and I could do that in college. We would be drunk but not to the point of being on the floor. When you stretch it out over the entire day it's not as hard as you think for people who drink a lot of beer on a normal weekend.

@@billhampton8004 Andre the Giant, actor/professional wrestler and a very nice man in real life RIP once consumed 119 12-oz beers in six hours. That equals a 12-oz beer downed every three minutes for six hours. I doubt many who've ever walked Planet Earth can duplicate that feat. That was only 6 hours. There were 18 more hours for the 24 hour challenge. 1 more beer for a total of 120 is 5 cases of 24 bottles/cans. I doubt he could keep up that pace but it seems within the realm of possibility Andre could have downed 240 beers in a 24 hours period. That's 22.5 gallons of brew/10 cases total. Fill him up.

@@billhampton8004 Andre the Giant, actor/professional wrestler, once drank 119 12 ounce beers in 6 hours. That's one brew short of 5 cases.
