It's insane. Cocaine is very dangerous especially when combined with alcohol, I'm surprised the pope endorsed it although perhaps drunk it was less potent who knows.
Caught my eye recenltly though.

If none of the above happening then can go weeks without a drink.
Riverman said:marinyork I admire your modicum of decorum. I however cannot stick to that, the taste of good wine is just too great sometimes. I think I occasionally drink for the sake of good wine rather than the effect of alcohol. Does anyone else find this?
I also think personally I grew up too much on alcohol which I think makes it harder to resist as you get older, although in my experience one definitely becomes a much more sensible drinker with age.
