    no, I wasn't an engineer when the three martini lunch was allowed.
    Best I get is the after work customer meetings that go thru a bottle of wine for each attendee, followed by an irish coffee and maybe a cognac or three.

    Dang Mathster, do you really drink that much everyday? If not how often do you drink? You can't be that old if you can handle the hangovers the next day at work!

    He wants you to think he's an engineer. He's actually an international double-spy

    Salesmen occationally drag and engineer out of their corner so the salemen has someone to answer the tough questions. besides, engineers make the salemen look more attractive.
