Deflave,

I'll join you in your Sober October venture but I need a favor, can you help me out with one little thing?
Posted By: funshooter Re: SOBER OCTOBER? - 10/01/22
I once visited a Fire Member that Told me that I was not a Man because I did not drink with him.

Well it looks like this October will probably be no different than any other month unless I get a cold.
My Favorite cold Medication is Doctor Magilicuty's Menthol Schnapps. (sorry for my Spelling)

That is just about the only time I drink hard stuff.

I like to have a clear head because I already do stupid stuff when I am Sober and really do not like the feeling of being Fuzzy Drunk

So I will Say it before anyone else

I guess I am just not a Man because I choose not to drink.

Oh I do not have anything against drinking I spent 2 years practically living in a Bar on the weekends and in that 2 years I had 3 drinks and freaked out the Waitresses and Bar Tenders.

Being around Drunk people can be a Blast.
It is just not for me.

I was handed a spiked cranberry juice drink about 5 years ago at a Christmas party. Otherwise nada for this side of the campfire. Don't need alcohol, and don't miss it. If i want something good to drink we can our own grape and cranberry juice, or the local apple orchards usually have plenty of cider.

He jonesin', he can't get beer.

This isn't a joke, and you don't need to be afraid of them.
All that sketchy schit behind them.

It's a 650 mile round trip for me, just a walk in the park for you.

I have traveled the globe and risked my life to spread the gospel of Flave and will do so again in the future. I don't even drink that much (maybe once a week) but have always said that I don't trust vegetarians or people who refuse to drink alcohol. Even if it's only one month, it's against my religion.

No doubt!

I love autumn and October is one of my most favorite months so I have no desire to ruin it by attempting the impossible, it’s setting myself up for failure right outta the gate.

In reality I don’t drink like I used to. I’ll go out after trap shooting on Tuesdays for a few beers with my buddy or occasionally sit around with the neighbors for a few++ drinks. My daily half rack hasn’t happened for 10 years now and I feel a lot better in the mornings. One of the benefits of drinking occasionally versus daily is that I don’t have to drink nearly as much as I used to in order to get a good beer buzz going but whiskey is the same, I can drink it like water until I walk into the wall.😂

I haven’t had a beer in five years and ten months. I don’t even remember really drinking now . I had 10 cases in fridge when I stopped, gave beer to everybody, they all thought I was crazy! I can hand out beer to friends or be around it and never even think about it.

The terms suck.

Drunk once in my life, almost 30 years ago.
Working on a 30 pack bought in August.

Had 1 beer with supper last night,
and I'm out before I got started.

Doc ask me if I drink once.
"Well,.... yeah"
"How much"
"Case or two a year"
"If that's all, why not quit"
"That little, what's it hurt?"
He laughed and agreed.


No way I could go a month without my 800mg Ibuprofen.
Well, it ain't worth going without them.

Count me in. I'll support anyone's sobriety, even those who don't seem particularly supportive of others. When you're ready, I'd also suggest ditching the tobacco. Both are means of self-medicating. The dip isn't doing you any favors, despite thinking it gives you energy, helps you focus...pick your rationale (and an addict can and will). If you're ready to stop killing yourself with tobacco, this site is an excellent place to start. Believe me, you'd fit right in to that forum; dip rage is welcomed. Good luck on however you've decided to frame your journey.

The upside of quitting dip? Everything. Having a jaw is useful for chewing food. No more being worried about every little sore in your mouth. No more lectures from the dentist. Removed a useless expense. No more scheduling your routine so you could get one more. Not having to worry about the look of that crap in your mouth. Healthy gums. It was such a simple decision to put myself through hell to quit it. Made the decision one day, and quit cold-turkey. Nicotine replacement therapy wasn't in my DNA; nicotine had to go.

Add alcohol to the mix, and the health risks balloon. Together they greatly increase the risk of oral and esophageal cancer. Best decision, evah.

It’s called sober October because most people use some form of booze or drug and going 30 days without can be a good for anyone.

If you aren’t somebody that drinks or smokes you can choose something else. Sugars, tobacco, the sleeping pill you’ve been on for five years.

Or maybe just add 10lbs to a lift. Drop five pounds. Take 30 seconds off your best 5K.

Whatever. It’s just something people can do to reset and go into the holidays.

Jack was there back on the south 40.
He'd gotten separated from his phone for a few minutes and missed the 'ring cam' alert.
You just missed him by a few minutes.

He's opening the store back up next week.

Everybody thinks Florida is all populated.

With Everglades City washed out from the storm surge it makes for 90 miles of road between Miami and Naples without a single store.

Jack's in the middle, there's no beer for a long, long ways.

Count me in. I'll support anyone's sobriety, even those who don't seem particularly supportive of others. When you're ready, I'd also suggest ditching the tobacco. Both are means of self-medicating. The dip isn't doing you any favors, despite thinking it gives you energy, helps you focus...pick your rationale (and an addict can and will). If you're ready to stop killing yourself with tobacco, this site is an excellent place to start. Believe me, you'd fit right in to that forum; dip rage is welcomed. Good luck on however you've decided to frame your journey.

Wideopen - 13 years sans tobacco and alcohol.

This is supposed to be fun.

Not preachy.

PS-I don’t use tobacco.
Okay. Have fun.

It’s called sober October because most people use some form of booze or drug and going 30 days without can be a good for anyone.

If you aren’t somebody that drinks or smokes you can choose something else. Sugars, tobacco, the sleeping pill you’ve been on for five years.

Or maybe just add 10lbs to a lift. Drop five pounds. Take 30 seconds off your best 5K.

Whatever. It’s just something people can do to reset and go into the holidays.
Sounds just like Lent.

I was chasing down another South Florida friend to see if he was OK after the storm.

He don't drink beer, he's a Crown Royal guy.

I had to do a online search to get his exact address to look his house up on the NOAA site to see if it'd been damaged.

His home took a hit but the roof was still on.
He's a man of resources, he can stand on his own two feet, if he's not had to much Crown.

He'll survive.

It's the other little things that pop up with those searches about a guy that I found a bit disturbing, it's also a testament as to why guys should take a little break from their drinking now and again.

Don't be in denial, this could happen to any of us that on occasion have a couple or six too many..

My dear and beloved friend made global news headlines with his drinking, the following is from a UK paper..


Horrified teenage girl returns to find car has been deliberately crushed by man in monster truck with five foot wheels


[Linked Image from i.dailymail.co.uk]

A teenage girl has been left broken-hearted after her car was crushed by a man in a huge camouflaged truck.

Norman Nowling, 40, from Fort Myers in Florida was arrested on Saturday after witnesses claimed he had deliberately driven over the 1994 Toyota Corolla several times.

The incident occurred at the Redneck Yacht Club during the annual 'Swamp Cabbage Weekend', which sees 4,000 revellers in monster trucks and pickups speed around an 800-acre mud park for fun.

[Linked Image from i.dailymail.co.uk]

Weapon of choice: This camouflaged monster truck, owned by Nowling, is believed to be the vehicle which was driven over the car

[Linked Image from i.dailymail.co.uk]

Campers come from as far afield as Alaska to attend the $40 event, which was described by one visiter as 'a mini Mardi Gras, with mud'.



But Norman, just like the rest of my friends, is a responsible stand up guy, like Deflave, a man of his word.


Red Neck Yacht Club car crushing,
Part II: Man reimburses teen for vehicle

The man who used his "monster van" to crush a 16-year-old girl's car over the weekend made good on his mistake Tuesday, WBBH-TV of Fort Myers reports.

Norman Nowling was arrested on a charge of felony criminal mischief after squashing the Toyota Corolla early Saturday morning at the Redneck Yacht Club in Charlotte County.

"I'm sure there's no other 16-year-old who can say, 'My first car got run over by a monster truck,'" said Amanda Kent.

Nowling met with the Kent's stepfather Tuesday, and gave her a $6,500 check to cover the cost of getting her a new vehicle. She says she'll start shopping for a new car this afternoon.

"I need to go to sleep every night with a clear conscience," Nowling said.

But Nowling says he still takes issue with the way the incident was handled. He admits to driving over the car, but says he wasn't the first to do it -- and he feels security at the venue unfairly singled him out.

DelFarve: I drink me a little beer on a warm day and a Margarita once a month or so when dining out - but being "sober" is a way of life for me.
I spent 29 years dealing first hand, professionally with drunks, booze hounds, wife beaters and wasted life alcoholics - lesson learned - drunkeness is vile and a waste of ones life, time, money, brain cells, livers and righteousness.
Good luck in October and while you're at it stay sober the rest of your life.

1. Change your socks more often.

2. Take some salt pills. Works better than using alcohol to dissolve the salt crusted to the bottom of your socks.

I’ve been mostly sober since 96. I’ll occasionally have a beer or two or a bourbon and coke. It got to where even I didn’t like myself very much when I was drunk and I couldn’t recover from a hangover quickly. Now, two beers and I’m feeling it enough to laugh at myself for being a light weight.

I haven't drank a drop of alcohol since the 1st of October.

It's as big a deal as one makes of it.

This isn't a problem for me, I have full control of my body, mind and life, there's no question that I'll make a full pull right on through the end of the month.

I have well laid plans.

There will be no better way to end this 'Sober October' event than to make damn sure a 'November to Remember' is to follow.

I'm 5.8 also, when I was working out lifting in my late 40s I was 190-195, but it was mostly muscle, I have always had a little belly even then. I want to get down to 185 and then hit the weights. My younger brother was 165 but has bulked up to 189 over the last 6 months, lifting, he is also 5.8.

Same height here.

Scale read 195 the other morning. Trying to get back to 185, where I was in my 40's and even into part of my 50's. Walking a bit more than in the summer. Will have to get some oil on the stationary bike so I can get some cardio type work done now that winter is here. Snow shoveling will help too.

I'm a maybe this year.

I'll have a beer with fresh grilled tenderloins, mushrooms, onions, Texas toast and a salad when hunting.

I'm taking my son to the early youth hunt in Oct this year, so if he connects, I'm out.

I think I had three drinks all last year.

All that we ask is for an honest effort, pard. Substance abuse is a major problem in our country and while you may not struggle with foregoing alcohol for a month, it may just be the inspiration that a person may need to start their road to recovery, pard.

You'r pard,

You planning on opening a nice center there in S FL?

I'll send you a case of your favorite whatever just to have some weekend entertainment. We may need an interpreter though.
I have feeling it would result in less intelligibility than when Kawi was hanging around due to the mil-speak

Had a beer last night after a stressful search and rescue job.

Had to run around and winterize everything in the dark...because it got to 19.
I know....excuses.

Sorry.



Yesterday morning I came down with a wild assed 24 hour flu or something.

Got to where I couldn’t walk for a while. Still hurt every where. Started coughing yesterday afternoon.




Don't know if it was coincidence or fate.....but fùck oh dear.....I am not drinking anything for a long time now!

It's like getting sicker than hell at a picnic and all you can remember was the warm potato salad.....
