Demon Rum is a killer. As a salesman on the road for 30+ years I became a highly functioning alcoholic. Not much to do in the hotel after meeting with customers all day so you drink. pretty soon, it translates to home and it starts as 1 martini before dinner and escalates to 2 then 3 and finally you are passing out before you can eat.
I had my last drink on November 3rd, 1999. 8 years and I still miss the buzz but not the aftermath.

No boat, back in the suds.
