Famous Literary Drunks and Addicts
Life.com has a photo series of famous literary drunks and addicts. Baudelaire, Dorothy Parker, Hemingway, lots of famed souses make the list.
Alternativereel.com has a similar, shorter list of the Top Ten Drunk American Writers.
A lot of colorful people love alcohol, and can communicate that love effectively, like #10 Raymond Chandler: “Alcohol is like love. The first kiss is magic, the second is intimate, the third is routine. After that you take the girl's clothes off.”
