Cobblers Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 "A new study published in the Annals of Rheumatic Diseases by the Karolinska Institute in Stockholm has claimed that drinking alcohol can reduce the risk of arthritis. The research showed that among people who drank regularly, the quarter with the highest alcohol intake were up to 50% less likely to get the disease than the half who drank least." I knew there was a reason I drank so much. Unfortunately it also explains my waistline "The average British drinker downs 3,000 extra calories every week from alcohol. That is 500 calories more than the average man needs for an entire day and 1,000 more than recommended for women. Health chiefs are calling for calorie counts to be shown on drink labels and restaurant wine lists." "The Drug and Alcohol Service for London (DASL) has launched a campaign against binge-drinking on Bebo." Never mind Bebo what about binge drinking on the Kickback Friday Night drinking thread!!!!

Gerd Muller Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Signs That You Are Too Drunk You have to hold onto the lawn to keep from falling off the earth. Job interferring with your drinking. Your docter finds traces of blood in your alcohol stream. Career won’t progress beyond Senator from Massachusettes. The back of your head keeps getting hit by the toilet seat. Sincerely believe alcohol to be the elusive 5th food group. 24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case - coincidence?? - I think not! Two hands and just one mouth… - now THAT’S a drinking problem! You can focus better with one eye closed. The parking lot seems to have moved while you were in the bar. You fall off the floor… Your twin sons are named Barley and Hops. Hey, 5 beers has just as many calories as a burger, screw dinner! Mosquitoes catch a buzz after attacking you At AA meeting you begin: “Hi, my name is… uh…” Your idea of cutting back is less salt. You wake up in the bedroom, your underwear is in the bathroom, you fell asleep clothed. The whole bar says ‘Hi’ when you come in… Every night you’re beginning to find your roommate’s cat more and more attractive. Roseanne looks good. Don’t recognize wife unless seen through bottom of glass. Senators Kennedy and Packwood shake their heads when they walk past you. I’m as jober as a sudge. You wake up in Korea in August and the last thing you remember is the Fourth of July party at the Halekulani in Waikiki. The shrubbery’s drunk too from frequent watering.
