George Clooney Was Drunk at the Oscars

You and I weren’t the only ones sneaking booze around last night — George Clooney had a secret stash of the good stuff at Sunday’s Academy Awards. E! Online says

George Clooney was hiding a secret on the red carpet — a flask!

[At one point during the night], George… opened his tux jacket. And there, gleaming and looking awfully deliciously discreet, was a silver flask.

Oh, come on — who among us hasn’t sneaked in a flask of whiskey to a boring social event? Or to a job interview, for that matter? A niece’s bat mitzvah? Parent teacher conference? Intensive care unit at a burn ward? You know what they say — if I had a nickel for every time I went somewhere with a flask, well, then, I’d be the happiest goddamn woman on the planet. I’ve been searching and searching for a job where I get paid to get drunk all day long. Blogging is just the closest I’ve gotten so far.
