Love is a Many Blender'd Thing

People are hypercritical of the modern New Year's holiday.

But I'll tell you that one of the finest acts of bravery I ever witnessed was performed by a guy who had been up drinking all night on New Year's Eve.

Naturally, I don't recommend alcohol-consumption in any quantity beyond what a person's metabolism can naturally tolerate...but the fact that this guy was SOOO HUNG-OVER made it so exceptionally heroic.

He hoisted my buddy's Jeep from a gravel rail-bed where it had slid off the hillside in a sudden cloudburst after a week of rains. Kind of a bonehead accident, but the rescue was notable.

Remember...nothing is open on January 1, except the movies...and it's unlikely any one of THOSE PATRONS would have missed a Premiering Box-Office Hit to risk self AND vehicle to get a friend's truck off the railroad tracks along a muddy hillside...hangover or not.
