Oh, I used to sit around with my father's ranch hands in the evening, and they would pass me their beers. I guess it was sort of funny to see a four year old hammered. I didn't see him all that much, but I worked at his place every summer from the time he left until I was about 15 or 16.
They also used to get his dog really whacked as well. Ah yes ... good times, me, the dog, a half-dozen men doubled over with laughter. It's also where I learned to swear like a trucker.
I used to like maple syrup back then too ... can't stand the stuff now. I guess my tastes just changed.
