    . . . when you want to book a last minute drunken flight and the airline's website is down until 4am. Keep drinking and wait until it's operational or go to to sleep and forget about it.

    What would YOU do?

    I know that already, but in the morning I'll be sober, whether I have a plane to catch or not.
