Abusive behaviour?
Today's newspaper headline tangent -- "Alcoholism down, alcohol abuse up."
How do _you_ abuse your alcohol? Beat it? Subject it to sleep deprivation? Sexual humiliation? Forcing it to wear silly little paper umbrellas? Or is it strictly verbal abuse for you -- demeaning, finding fault, shouting, cursing?
I think I'll open a shelter for abused alcohol -- fine single-malts preferred. And then there's all that brandy burned alive by French chefs....
On a lighter note, saw a bald eagle cruising down the river when I went for my morning walk to get said newspaper. And no skunks.

Ah, um?
All seriousness aside, I think a shelter for abused alcohol is a fine idea. There's probably room for one over thisaway. OTOH, building Self Esteem in Allen's Coffee Brandy has gotta be a bear...

Well, ya know, sometimes the abuse is justified.
(Ducks the outraged screams and brickbats from the PC crowd.)
