"You see, I am an alcoholic.  But I had not drunk for two years.  Having had two years of sobriety, not having to drive, and being with two of my closest friends in the world, I decided to drink alcohol.  This was my biggest mistake." -- Jersey City Councilman Steve Lipski, explaining the events that led to his arrest on Friday for urinating on a crowd of people at a club in Washington, D.C.
