Dave, I don't have time to dig out the photo, but we ran into about a dozen Australian aborigines lounging in the park in Cairns. Extreme drunkeness - too weak from drink to walk. Appeared they spent alot of time in the park.
Reminds of the old drunks on Brown Street back in the day. In fact, after high school I had a job in downtown Napa. I parked in BofA's parking lot for just a moment and snuck by the security gaurd they hired to keep people like me from parking in their lot. I couldn't have been gone fifteen minutes. When I get back a drunk had crawled into the backseat of my car to take a nap. He was sound asleep. We didn't lock our car doors back then. I called out to the secuirty gaurd who says "Yep, there's a guy in your car" and walked away. I called the police who gently escorted this guy and his bottle of vodka or gin to jail to sleep it off. You know that four police cars showed up - they had so little to do. Of course I'm standing there surrounded by all those police cars and certain everyone thought I had robbed the bank. Had to air out my car for an hour. I locked my car after that one.
