Always a good idea to get a bit liquored up before trying something stupid. At least that way you have the excuse, and don't just have to admit you were an idiot.

Sebastian, I agree it is much better later to have an excuse such as it seemed like a good idea when I was drunk than to have to admit you were just too stupid.
me the last time that happened I just stomped on the lug wrench and broke the sucker off.
