OCTOBER 20TH, 2018 – “It’s like I’m superhuman when I’m drunk,” he said. “I can say and do anything I want.

I seemed to do everything better after a few drinks.” He says young consumers of booze drink for the same reasons. “Especially at carnival time,” he said, “you see how the young boys and girls carry on? I used to do the same thing.”
