More Words of Wisdom

To all my friends who enjoy a glass of wine ... And to those who don't.

As Ben Franklin once said: 'In wine, there is wisdom, in beer, there is freedom, in water, there is bacteria'.

Through a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have discovered that if we drink 2 pints of water each day, at the end of the year, we have absorbed more than 2 1/2 pounds of Escherichia coli, (E. Coli), the bacteria found in feces.

In other words, we are consuming 2 1/2 pounds of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol must go through a purification process of boiling, filtering and/or fermenting. Not to mention that alcohol kills bacteria.

So Remember: Water = Poop, Wine = Health

Therefore, it is better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of shit.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable information: I do it as a public service.

I just stopped drinking wine , I gave up beer when I was 27 ( got very sick just smelling the stuff) and I could never stomach spirits ( I alsways became violently sick) . I was drinking more than I thought was healthy and that I would become an alcoholic like all my Aunts and Uncles ( my parents had ulcers and could not drink at all) . I decided that the only way to prove I was not an alcoholic was to not drink and see if there was any craving for this stuff.

However Larry that was a very funny post . Some day I will lift a glass of some kind of good wine to your health and sense of public spiritedness.

Thanks for the witty post .
