how come one can do the splits when one is a bit typsy?

[ilovemarkb]

yet without alcohol one is like a crab?

[joggerjayne]

I can't. Not when I'm tipsy. Not even when I'm totally trolleyed.

Can you ??

[ilovemarkb]

amazingly one can!!

[sandyRoe]

I suppose a drink or two loosens the inhibitions. Sober you're thinking you might cripple yourself.

[ilovemarkb]

but scientifically does alcohol loosen ligaments?

[Krausse]

I can do many things with a bit more alcohol but 'the splits' isn't one of them !

[joggerjayne]

Maybe it masks the pain as your ligaments tear ?

[ilovemarkb]

but one gets up the next morning right as rain

[joggerjayne]

Alcohol also has medicinal qualities ... which heals the torn ligaments.

maybe your muscles are more relaxed with a few drinks inside yer.

I reckon Booldawg is right.

I reckon JJ is thinking of rubbing alcohol.
