A: Damn right I'll be drunk
Q: Have you heard of Bert Brecht? The reason I ask is because the question reminded me of Mr.Puntilla, a character in one of his books. He's drunk most of the time and a kind man while it lasts, but turns into an asshole once he sobers up, which can happen quite fast. At one point he says:"I am a terrible man, and there are times when I get terribly sick. But I can cure myself, I drink!"
Really funny book and rich in social critizism.. just curious if he's known outside Germany
