	Clive  +  239656 Sat, 24 Jun 06 02:36 PM Hi, if a bottle of vodka gets you then what happens to you ? 'Gets you' is an odd expression here. Possibly you are thinking of 'gets to you'. If something 'gets to you', it means it starts to affect you. A bottle of vodka would certainly get to me. I might split a few more infinitives than usual.
