Interesting piece on teachers drinking together after school. http://proof.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/01/21/pencils-down-bottoms-up/
My favorite passage: "At first I sought to institute a no-talking-about-school policy, figuring that alcohol would help us return to our normal selves. Then I realized that we no longer had normal selves. Unlike most other professions, this one drains you completely, refilling you with its own insular, infinite concerns. The intensity may ebb and flow, but it never disappears." Chris -- Christopher D.
