As Americans prepare to plunge head-first over the fiscal cliff, some folks are hoping to soften the inevitable blow by drinking themselves into a stupor:
Looks like we are headed off the Fiscal Cliff. My advice, start drinking heavily…Happy New Year, all…!—

Let's all get drunk and write nasty letters to congress. It seems like it would do as much good as writing them sober. #dumb #fiscalcliff—
