Alright, I'm not sure how to set this one up, so bear with me.

Long-time readers of this blog probably know that I'm a fan of *Modern Drunkard Magazine* and its editor, Frank Kelly Rich, who's one of the funniest writers today. I don't approve of Rich's or the magazine's celebration of excess, but their stuff is funny and I like their iconoclastic attitude toward teetotallers. Anyway, one of their writers apparently interviewed the President of the Denver Chapter of the Reformed Anti-Saloon League. At first, I thought it was a spoof, but as I continued to read, I decided that it's real. [You decide](http://drunkard.com/issues/10%5F05/1005%5Frise%5Fof%5Fthe%5Fdrys.htm?ref=thedailyeudemon.com).

Excerpt:

> MD: Since you're the Reformed Anti Saloon League you're acronym is RASL. So one may pronounce it, I assume, as *rassle*, as hill folk pronounce wrestle.

> DR: Yes?

> MD: Well, I just thought it a vast improvement of just ASL, which could be pronounced as a personal insult. I mean, back in the Prohibition days, I'm pretty sure the drinkers would see your ilk marching down the street and say, “Hey, here come the, uh– . . .

Another excerpt:

> MD: Oh, come now. You must of had a couple wild times. Dancing on the bonnet of your Model A, or perhaps charging around on your horse, hooting savagely and bullwhipping innocent bystanders.

> DR: Ridiculous! I never did any such thing.

> MD: Huh! What was your favorite drink back then?

> DR: I don't see any point in discussing it.

> MD: It was a boilermaker, wasn't it? Five or six snorts of that and you'd be out on your horse with your infamous bullwhip–

> DR: Look, if you can't conduct a civil interview, I'll ask you to leave.
