Salutations, colleague! If you would, kindly grasp my beverage and peruse my present endeavours.

This fits right in with Cliff's (from Cheers) theory that alcohol kills the weak brain cells, which is why you always feel smarter after a few beers.

Are they suggesting that people who write for a living drink? I don't believe it.

I always find I can speak German, Russian and Czech (probably a couple more) better when I'm drunk ... well, at least I think I am.
Of course, my English drops off.
