The part I quoted sounds like someone who feels guilty about his drinking becoming defensive when confronted. You don't have to be a stereotypical stumble-bum every day drinker to have an unhealthy relationship with alcohol. I'm pretty much the standard drunk that people think about when they hear that word. My ex girlfriend did not drink every day but every time she did it was a nightmare. In some ways that's worse. I can't deny my problem the way she can. Also I'm not violent and can hold my booze like a champ

Or it could be he's just defensive because he's unjustly accused but his little calendar and Mark Judge's book make me fairly certain he's had a history of problem drinking
