Found a most delightful article in Modern Drunkard Magazine

Includes all of Plum's synonyms for being drunk. *G*



Also, (stole the observation from [livejournal.com profile] mistacat)

"Is that really your name--Algernon?"
"I cannot deny it."
--Piccadilly Jim


It's an almost perfect quote of Wilde's "The Importance of Being Earnest".

Wildian references in Wodehouse. This just made my entire week.

Hee ^^ Cute article! Though I was under the impression that "Green Swizzle" was a cocktail, not a synonym for being drunk. Ah well, perhaps they were "under the surface" while writing it. ^_~

I could root through [livejournal.com profile] chefkatsuya's room to find the book, but I won't. It was something to that effect...that if he ever had a son, "Green Swizzle" Wooster was the name that would go down in the register on account of the day his life was saved by such a drink. Something to that effect.

I need to use "Tanked to the Uvula".
