1. a shot is 1 oz.
a pint is 16 ounces, so there are 4 shots in a pint. Well, the way I drink shots anyway....

6. porch time will be especially sweet this evening...
finally, a night without work on my mind, and i can stay up as late as i want! :woohoo:

let's try to avoid the couch pass-out though...if anything, the spare bed, so as to reduce weird neck pains :D

16. I passed out...
on a chair in front of the fridge with the door open and a turkey drumstick in my lap one night about 25 years ago. I thought it was funny, but my wife didn't. Slept on the couch for a few nights after that one.:shrug:

14. huh. I'd always been taught an official shot was 1 oz.

18. If you're referring to alcohol content, two, by UK standard measures
One 25ml shot of liquor is roughly one "unit" of alcohol, whilst one pint of regular beer is roughly two "units".

Computers will help you make mistakes faster than anything except tequilla and handguns.
