So true; what I always do to stay out of trouble is to have a soda or water in between each beer or mixed drink. You still get buzzed, but it keeps you from getting so buzzed you get sick or so drunk you don't remember anything.

Pretty good idea, but I hate to waste valuable bladder space if drinking beer!
I've found having a good meal before hand helps as does only taking a certain amount of money with you.

Very true. Me and my buddies used to refer to it as the "Beer Seal". You can go a couple of hours with out any "pitt stops" but after you break the "Beer Seal" you have to go much more frequently.

Its probably easier as you say to take other measures to insure that you don't drink too much. I'm too much of a cheap skate to drink too much out. $7 at the grocery store gets me 6 import beers. $7 in the bar gets me 2 domestic beers. If you have a plan to spend a certain amount before you go out, and you don't carry any credit cards, then you'll probably go pretty far to following your plan.

That reminds me, I'm out of Jack and Yueingling.
