70. damn straight!
i got drunker than i've ever been at my great-grandmother's wake. came damn close when my father-in-law died too.

in my family, i'd have been disowned if i'd have married an englishman. even one born in the states. my father, to his dying day, will continue to hate all things English. i can't even drink a newcastle in his house--the horror!
