so, the other day i'm cracking a beer at noonish and my downstairs neighbor, who is kindly walking my new dog while i'm laid up, says "holy shit dude, you can't start drinkin at noon - its totally uncool" and i ask him "ok, when it is 'cool' to drink?" and he says "5 o'clock". . . .so, I'm puttingh is answer to the group - when is it 'cool' to start cracking beers open?????

I agree with the dog-walking neighbor. However, my rule of thumb is that if you are on vacation (or your regular routine is interrupted in some way -- as in your case) then drinking at noon or even earlier is completely acceptable. A few other exceptions would be tailgating (a sporting event) and before a wedding or funeral.
