A
tactical manuver, used while getting
hammered, that involves sending down more drinks to report on or asses the
progress of previous ones. Popularized by Zaphod Beeblebrox
"Hey, maybe I gotta send down a couple more drinks. You know, to
see what the first few are doing."
"
Dude, beeblebrox's gambit only makes sense when you're ALREADY
hammered. I think you've had enough"
