Swerving Down The Highway

About the Book

Try if you will, to imagine a time when automobiles were virtual bars, DWI roadblocks were in their infancy and MADD's mothers were still in utero. A time when "impaired" drivers were not vilified and hunted down like wild animals, but praised and admired for their deftness, agility, and multitasking ability.
Ah my friends, but not so many years ago such an era did exist! Herein lies the tales of the brave young men who took to their vehicles, beer can in hand, fearing nothing but incompetent sober drivers and the occasional moving telephone pole.

About the Author

The author is a vintage, Jesuit trained Irish ex-Catholic with a BA in philosophy and a masters in Sociology. He has been practically (and sometimes literally) living in bars for the past 40 years. He credits switching to beer from gin and other similar toxins with keeping him alive and in moderate health. He has spent (some say wasted) almost his entire adult life in the pursuit of the pleasures of alcohol and the pain of women. The author has yet to succumb to rehab, citing the cherished adage that says “winners never quit”.
