Drinking Games
In University, drinking was frequently combined with reading. As I've been trying to purge myself of paperwork (didn't I throw out all this shit the last two times I moved? I guess not. I still have undergrad papers, notes from girlfriends, and whole notebooks on Aesthetics, Political Religion, and Existentialism which have SOMEHOW managed to stay with me this long) I recently discovered these. From my pre-Crowley, devil-may-care Goetia days, back when verifying a spirit's authenticity meant telling it to start fires and preparing for a ritual meant doing bong hits and snorting PCP, these may not be sophisticated, (or, possibly, all that funny) but hell, they're good for a whirl.
