B.W.D
As a staunch supporter of the Blogging While Drunk (BWD) movement, we take the strongest possible exception to this post, by the man who calls himself the ‘Lord‘. It is not so much the contents of the post or the spelling error in the title (Rambling not Rumbling), but it is the sober confession that the said plastered state was induced by Michelob, a watery substance that is often misinterpreted as beer.
I have to ask, what is the blog-world coming to these days ? Where is the honesty, where is the integrity ? Here we try our hardest to mix-up cocktails, or drink straight scotch, or invest time and money into proper beers to achieve the appropriate inebriated state, only to be upstaged by an obvious impostor, glibly claiming to be hammered under what - not the cheap whiskey, not the ubiquitous vodka, not even the patriotically American Budweiser (or the patriotically Indian Kingfisher), but Michealob! Obviously, the blogger is either extremely delusional or downright dishonest.
We feel the need to lodge a strong protest at this anti-sobrietal vilification - not to mention demeaning of value - of true BWD bloggers. We hereby propose that minimum standards be laid down to define plastered states, such that under the BWD Agreement (Moscow, 2005), bloggers may claim immunity from recriminations from their post. The Mai-Baap Govt of India, by past experience, is best placed to oversee such standards. A complicated formula involving the dimensional vectors of quality and quantity of booze, weighed appropriately by time and an ephemeral consideration for the state of mind can be worked out (yours truly volunteers to work this out for the price of a pint of Guinness).
Till then - down with the impostors !!!!!
Note - Under the full disclosure requirements of the Moscow Agreement (see above), this post was written under the influence of Bombay Sapphire, Ciroc Vodka, Cointreau, Kahlua (individually or combinations thereof) and Pepperjack Estate Shiraz; imbibed over a period of four hours (not including the time to write this post) under a content state of mind.

Tee hee. I second this motion. Michelob is better than Budlight, marginally. Piss water that one be.
Though my last rambling was on a bottle of benadryl and some meds.

The government of India is not at all well placed to oversee this…not least due to its obsession with sobrietal justice

Two questions :
Why Moscow2005? Did Comrade Putin ever blog under the influence?
Two, if “recriminations from their post” include those in the blogosphere too, doesn’t it take all the fun away? I mean, there’s nothing more lively than tearing down somebody else’s drunken rambling (rumbling ?), is there?
Otherwise, the major framework of the motion will pass. Aye!

Where else but Moscow, I say?
A “United Bloggers Convention on Law of Blogging While Drunk, 2008″ needs to be passed soon.
Nitin is right though, lets not involve GoI. We’ll create an Empowered Committee to oversee the implementation of this Convention.
