Althouse and I once got drunk by clandestinely drinking eau de cologne off the cosmetics bar at Bergdorf-Goodman.

Please, like she would let vodka spill.
That little scene must have provoked a response from someone.
:)
Vodka of course.
"I've been drinking straight vodka."
Althouse is not a liar. Everyone knows that.
I don't know for sure what you were drinking, but I find it funny that the New Republic people refer to you as "feisty Ann Althouse."
Kidding = lying?
Feisty. Translation: doesn't dhimmi to Dems.
Oops. I misquoted. It's the feisty Ann Althouse.
Kidding = lying?
Being an alcoholic is no laughing matter. Maybe when Eve called Althouse "unseemly" she meant "drunk as a skunk".
"Kidding = lying?"
Oh! I'm afraid Eve Fairbanks might not know that. She seems young and impressionable. Naive even.
Maybe Althouse has no idea what she was drinking. That's why she's polling us. She could have blacked out the entire evening!
How could anyone believe that that huge 16 oz. glass was full of vodka? How could I be talking normally after one hour of that? That would be enough liquor to kill me! What's wrong with you people? How obvious must a joke be????
That right, Jason the commenter. That joke about Heather Mills hopping instead of walking all over Paul could be another clue. Has anyone ever heard her joke when sober?
She might even be drunk right now. Notice her typing seems a bit slurred. We probably should just quietly tip toe away. In case she turns mean.
How could I be talking normally after one hour of that?
Hey, I only listened to that short little linked clip out of the whole BH thing you posted. I couldn't stand listening to her (Eve). Not bad to look at though.
How could anyone believe that that huge 16 oz. glass was full of vodka?
She doesn't think she was drunk because she didn't "feel" drunk. But watch her spill her drink. And her voice. For all we know it was slurred; we might never have heard her sober.
And the "problem" she had with her car this morning. Probably ran over something, let's hope it wasn't alive.
At least she's still is!
I think Lem could tell us.
"At least she's still is!"
Now that really would be shocking news. A still. In her basement? Near the "broken down furnace" I suppose.
And she, a law professor!
It's obvious she was drunk on her ass, so it had to be straight vodka.
I just hope instapundit doesn't link to her right now while she's in her cups. How instantly embarrassing that would be.
Good point Meade. I hope he doesn't link either. That would be terrible for her image.
How obvious must a joke be????
Says the woman who laughs at Titus.
Vodka is the Russian diminutive for water, so I'm guessing it was a special Russian import harvested from melt water collected at one of the untouched and unpolluted parts of the Siberian wastelands.
You! A law professor! Drinking 16 ounces of vodka.
If it's any consolation, Althouse. I say you are tough and could live through the experience. Emphasis on could.
Also, I am thinking of changing my moniker to Feisty Seven Machos.
What's especially disturbing is, she couldn't tell what she was drinking from looking at the empty bottles. She must have empty bottles lying all over the place. Maybe she's worried she drank lighter fluid and needs to see the doctor.
Missing choice: self-absorption and tonic.
Also, I am thinking of changing my moniker to Feisty Seven Machos.
with Cheese!
George E: Why does Althouse bother you by her existence? You are obviously an unhappy twit. Sucks to be you. But no one is making you care what a Big 10 law professor thinks.
Strange. Nearly a psychosis, really.
"...a special Russian import harvested from melt water ..."
Ah ha! All the pieces are now falling into place. Those of us who have been hanging around this gin joint of a blog long enough know how expensive her tastes are.
She may be incoherantly stuporifically blotto plastered, but let no man accuse her of being cheap and ordinary.
We all know it corporate water, by the way.
Sorry. incoherently.
'urp.
I've sent a link to PJTV.
Hope this doesn't make Drudge!
Are you kidding? It should get a flashing siren.
George E! Welcome!
Pull up a chair. There's an empty one. It's yours. Titus suddenly had to leave.
She was drinking a 'Sullenberger.'
Several shots of Grey Goose,
Shake hard, then
Set down gently ... with a splash.
Well, at least it wasn't "The" Kool Aide.
I bet the party doesn't really get started until she switches to the purple drank.
Whoa, Jason The C! Good research work, pal! Next thing you know, the authorities find her inert. Without a pulse. In bed. In the nude.
This may call for an intervention.
I'll leave for Madison immediately.
The blood of virgins wasn't an option either.
Yes, I know it's clear, but--digital editing!!
Purple drink's not good enuf for them?
Any excuse for Meade to fondle the package.
Who would drink Vodka and water?
That sounds disgusting.
Is there a name for that drink?
I am sure it was just water.
I am eating eggs right now. Yumm, eggs.
Is Meade in love with Althouse?
Titus, who isn't?
ChickenLittle every time I see that In N Out Burger sign I get hungry.
No In N Out Burger's here, waaaaaaaaa.
No Bob Evans either. Love Bob Evans Biscuits and Gravy.
That's what I thought Meade.
Hey everyone, Meade's in love with Althouse.
What do you do with all this adulation and love Althouse?
Despite all the crap she takes from the liberal loons, Althouse is not much of a drinker. She is actually tiny and more than one or two drinks would be very noticeable. So this is all bullshit and make believe fun.
But hey, apple juice in the rocks glasses worked as a gimmick for Dean Martin, so go for it.
I walked by my bitchy neighbor on the street today and he didn't even say hi after I said hi to him.
He is a freak. I want to hit him and then do him.
I'll bet THAT would teach him to say hi from now on.
I want to say to my neighbor "how dare you not say hi to me. I going to hit you and then I am going to do you....bitch."
He looks like he would be fun to punch in the face a few times. And then in the gut. And then push into a glass table. And maybe choke just a little.
Do you ever feel that way when you see some people? Like you would like to rough them up a bit?
I think she should cultivate an image of a hard drinker, even though she isn't. It's a good foil to fool the left and drive them even crazier.
@Titushadadreamaboutsnakes:
A German chemist by the name of August Kekulé had a very famous dream about snakes. He changed the world in a very subtle way.
You said hi to him, Titus, but you didn't say hi guy. That's the signal. How can you blame the guy for not responding if you didn't give him the signal?
The first time I heard someone say they wanted something mixed with water (like Bourbon and water), I couldn't believe that was what they really wanted. Why would you want watered-down liquor?
Wait. Chickenlittle, are you saying she's faking it? That she's not really a hard drinker?
But that would change everything. And how would you explain her expensive tastes in vodka and whatnot?
This was his dream.
She has expensive taste in whatnot??
Me, I buy generic whatnot.
I think.
How can you tell?
Who would drink Vodka and water?
Anyone who orders a vodka martini, traditionally shaken with ice before being poured.
My vote was water, of course. Propriety and all.

Wow. If it was just water, I'm afraid I owe her a big apology.
Wow.
Blame It On Moskva
Tiny Annie took a sip
And tiny Eve turned red,
Mortified but hic to hip
Both tumbled into bed.
Althouse said she was drinking Straight Vodka.. and I for one believe her.
Though, for the record, I never saw her raise the glass until she mentioned it towards the end.
If Althouse had not said anything nobody would have been the wiser.
Way to go Professor.
Althouse, I owe you an apology too. I bought into the image promulgated by your detractors.
I'm sorry. I won't bring it up again.
I did a wikipedia on Eve Fairbanks. It came up blank. It didn't come up blank for Ann Althouse. I can't listen to the bloggingheads video so there might have been some introduction about her explaining who she is. If so my apologies.

Trooper York, you are an enabler. I know you think you're defending her, but don't you see that all you're doing is keeping her from getting the help she needs?
All those pictures of trees must be where she finds herself when she wakes up in the morning!

"What do you do with all this adulation and love Althouse?"
Some of it rolls right off me and some of it I quaff enthusiastically. Are you so blind that you don't know the difference?
unseemly and unfounded

Jim Rockford's answering machine [Episode 603]
(sung) We're down at Hennesey's Bar, Jim, having a drink or two. You better get down here quick, Jim, or we'll probably take up your stool!
Yeah, I can picture you there on that stool
Drinking like a drunken fool
Yeah, you're sitting there on your ass
Muttering into your glass
Paying for your low-life thrills
With wet quarters
And soggy one-dollar bills
I know where you are
I know where you are
You're down drinking at the bar
There is a Shirley Abrahmson running on the blog adds..
Hasn't she ever heard the term Sober as a judge?
It simply proves Althouse makes more sense half-drunk than Fairbanks stone sober.
Next Blooging heads you should have a fake drink like Trooper said. One with clinky ice and maybe even a clove cigarette or what ever it is they pretend smoke on MadMen. I'll bet only Hitchens would have the cajones to take you on then.
An alcoholic game is just what's needed to smooth out the attacks from the libtards stirred up last night by you loose lipped Limbaugh Lovers.The rules of the game are everytime Michael lashes out, you must drink a shot of watered-vodka and then puke it up in his honor.
maybe even a clove cigarette or what ever it is they pretend smoke on MadMen.
Play with the lighting so the only thing well lit is a mysteriously cloud of smoke.

And show up wearing whipped cream or soap bubbles and see if it distracts the other commenter. Pretend everything's normal. Have a hand reach up and scratch your chin while the other commenter is speaking.
Maybe topics should have their own drinks.. you know how they link the articles on the side .. you just jump from drink to drink ;)
But does anyone of these who love get the love in return?
Or the love they are hoping for?
I hear Althouse likes her whiskey like Titus likes young men:
18 years old and mixed up with coke.
Althouse has a fierce phalanx of defenders. They are a testament to her integrity, her intellect and her no BS sense of fair play.
It's true that these video things are too primitive. First of all, you need to come out of steaming dry ice, Althouse. Confetti should be involved. And you should throw up chalk a la LeBron James. You need a theme song, too. Something fierce.
And when you sit down, you should stare directly into your camera and taunt. "It's gonna be a chilla, and a killa, and a thrilla, when I get TNR's Gorilla in vanilla."
Then, you pit in your mouthpiece and suck down a shot of Jagermeister and feistily annihimate your worthless twat of an opponent.
I was way too fired up in that last post. Thus the misspellings.
Kill! Kill!
Trooper York: you are obviously a complete authority on everything Althouse, having met her in person! Undoubtedly that meeting revealed everything anyone could possibly learn about her habits.
Talk about loons. You're a pro!!
Yeah, Robert. Good one.
Pro loon?
What's an amateur loon? A fake Canadian dollar?
You need a theme song, too. Something fierce.
There is a theme song, the audible althouse themesong for the podcasts.
althouse was drinking clear liquid. That's all I know for certain. I think it was water. Pure (sort of) Madison tap water, free (mostly) of manganese and other metals that make your liver go Yikes!
I was a pro loon once. I jumped port in Hong Kong and made my way over to Tibet. I got a job loonin' over in the Himalayas. You know, a pro jock. So I get a job loonin' for none other than the Dali Lama himself -- the bald head, the flowing robes. Striking.
So we get up on the first tee and he whacks off about a 10,000 foot crevice down into this glacier -- a bit hitter the Lama. Long. So he turns to me and says, "Onga-lagoonga. Oonga goonga lagrunga."
So we finish 18 and he starts to walk off. You know, tries to stiff me. I say, "Hey Dali. Hey Lama! How about somethin' for the effort, you know?"
He says, "Oh there will be no money but, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness."
So I got that goin' for me. Which is nice.
So, that first hole--par 257?
But hey, apple juice in the rocks glasses worked as a gimmick for Dean Martin, so go for it.
Aaawww .. you just ruined the illusion. I loved the Dean Martin show.
Do you ever feel that way when you see some people? Like you would like to rough them up a bit?
Ummm....yes. My ex husband. He owes me money :-P
DBQ:
There are ways to 'rough people up' by means of blogging.
Last May, I was one of a number of bloggers who couldn't resist putting up snarky little posts about John C. Odom. The last line in my post was,
To paraphrase Jeff Foxworthy, 'You know you're a complete bum when...'
So today I learn that we collectively may have done him in (by 'we' I mean the collective accumulation of snarky bloggers, late night comedians and mean spirited baseball fans.)
From the linked article,
Odom's death had drawn little notice by the start of spring training this year. Now, former teammates, managers and club officians keep asking a question for which there is no satisfying answer.
"I guarantee this trade thing really bothered him. That really worried me," said Dan Schwam, who managed Odom last year on the Laredo Broncos the United League. "I really believe, knowing his background, that this drove him back to the bottle, that it put him on the road to do drugs again."
Should the collective pressure exerted by thousands of amateur comedians (and a few professional ones as well) on an apparently far more fragile than was realized 22 year old psyche deserve a measure of the blame?
Perhaps. You can call me a murderer if you wish.
But my conscience is clear.
To your original question, you forgot the obvious answer: Nobody gives a rat's hindquarters.
That dude never read anything you wrote. Don't flatter yourself, Eli.
Mark -- Why are you here, then? I mean, really. It's getting ridiculous, the number of people who come and take the time post at Althouse, solely to tell Althouse they don't care. That's why they are here posting, see? Because they don't give a rat's ass.
Common characteristic: utter humorlessness.
As I said, my conscience is clear.
However it is certain that he was unable to deal with the thousands of people all over who made jokes about it (not that he probably read most of them, but he read enough.)
That guy's really a tough case, Eli. I mean, that guy's dream was to play baseball. That's probably the one thing he was any good at, and he was probably better than everybody in his town growing up. And then, not only to wash out, but to get traded for some bats. I'm sure it was disheartening.
On the other hand, at least the guy had a gift and was able to use it. Most people never even get that.
Seven,
Of course, people do care about Althouse's trifles, but nobody cares more than the people who come here to insist NOBODY CARES!
That must eat them up inside.
It's coffee.
Gentlemen, gentlemen please. I do not claim to be an expert on Althouse. That would be Meade. He has spent much more time on Althouse. Allegedly.
However I am an expert on drinking. My extensive research in over forty years of imbibing spirits tells me several things. One of them is the capacity of drinkers to adsorb liqueur without slurring or otherwise noticeably displaying physical manifestations of enjoying alcoholic beverages. It is basically a function of practice and famiality but most of all a function of body weight. For example when Palladian and I were waiting at the last Althouse meet up I would venture to suggest we had at least five drinks before the Professor deigned to grace us with her presence. Neither of us was even slightly the worse for wear as we both have the body weight to adsorb such a piddling amount of alcohol. The professor not so much. Being small and slight of stature imbibing more than three drinks without a meal would be extremely noticeably especially when being filmed on boring heads. So it is patently ridiculous to assume she was drinking vodka while filming the ludicrous pap which serves as an entertainment vehicle for poindexters of the liberal persuasion.
I think you time would be better spent on continuing your work on explaining how fire can not melt steel and research the method in which the Republican National Committee controls the weather.
All the best, your pal Trooper.
Thank you for your insight and expertise, Trooper York. Rethinking my position on this highly controversial and important issue.
I know you are on it dude. So to speak.
as an expert at being the designated driver, I can't stand drunken behaviour in front of me or in the seat behind me real or faked.
tiny or not, how your body absorbs alcohol is also a function of the condition of your liver and metabolism. This past summer when i was mad at the entire f-ing world, i faked a drunk act with a Wendy's frosty no less. Gads, that was one of my worst ideas ever. Really an embarassment and a stain against my character to have to sink so low in this world to get a laugh or attention.
