Drinking Liberally 1

I made it to the Philly Drinking Liberally for the first time in a couple of months. Some of my friends were there; some were out of town. It was good seeing those who were there and, oddly enough, good missing those who were out of town. Even though some were missing, the fellowship was not.

Now to investigate Liberallies in Norfolk and Virginia Beach.

Part of the conversation tonight involved the correct way to pronounce “Norfolk.”

Hint: It’s not “Nor-FOLK” as in folk music. That pronunciation is a sure sign to Virginians that the speaker is an outlander.

Hint Two: It completes the legendary cheer:

“We don’t smoke! We don’t drink!”

    A cheer? It doesn’t rhyme. I don’t get it.

Finally, this is website is a hobby.
