I think you've misquoted here. The actual quote is, "To live is to get drunk a lot and eventually die in a bar brawl!"

Thanks man.

I actually have a post up there right now. Figured it wouldn't hurt to get two forums in on this. I ordered 750 Nexgens, and I want to order some labels today, have the pic all figured need the translation. I am hoping to get all of this together by fri for our regular game.

it would be funny is somobody gave the translation for "I'm a big drunk puffter who sucks English shelaileigh." or some other deragatory comment, And then you put that on all your chips. Well, it would be funny if I didn't like you anyways, as I don't know you I hope somebody actually helps you.

A shelaileigh is the bastardized spelling of a big knobbly stick you hit people with.
