Can you hold your liquor?

[TexLaw]

It really is an individual thing. I am about an average sized guy or a little below. If I eat something decent, I can go for a long time. If I go strictly on the liquid diet, I can fare well, but I have to be careful or I will just fall off the cliff at some point.

I once sobered up while drinking light beer about six or seven hours after giving blood (that was 9/12/2001 - I needed a beer).

I'm with everyone else; it depends on the variables.

Sometimes I can have a beer and it'll get me going, other times it'll be a twelve pack and i'll get that warm, nighty-night feeling. In any event, it just reminds how much I love the taste of beer.

I don't really mix stuff too much anymore either. I'm past the prime of enjoying silly things like shots and my affinity for beer has really left me not doing a whole lot of spirits / mixers anymore.

Kinda funny, one of the skinniest guys I know (140 soaking wet..) could drink just about anyone under the table. Liquor, beer, wine; doesn't matter, the guy is a tank but has freakish metabolism. Between predominantley 4 of us on his bachelor part we killed 4-30 packs amongst other garbage and he was the last man standing.
