I really do not know how many of us  love drinking.
     But for those who do...here are some lovely quotes:
 
 
     The Value of a Drink
 
     Sometimes when I reflect back on all the wine I drink
 
     I feel shame Then I look into the glass and think
 
     about the workers in the vineyards and all of their hopes
 
     and dreams .. If I didn't drink this wine, they might be out
 
     of work and their dreams would be shattered.
 
     Then I say to myself, "It is better that I drink this wine and let their
 
     dreams come true than be selfish and worry about my liver."
 
     ~ Jack Handy

     "I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they
 
     wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're
 
     going to feel all day. "
 
     ~Frank Sinatra

     "When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading."
 
     ~ Henny Youngman

     "24 hours in a day, 24 beers in a case. Coincidence? I think not"

     "When we drink, we get drunk. When we get drunk,
 
     we fall asleep. When we fall asleep, we commit no sin.
 
     When we commit no sin, we go to heaven. So, let's all
 
     get drunk and go to heaven!"
 
     ~ Brian O'Rourke

     "Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy."

     "Without question, the greatest invention in the
 
     history of mankind is beer. Oh, I grant you that the
 
     wheel was also a fine invention, but the wheel does
 
     not go nearly as well with pizza."
 
     ~ Dave Barry

     To some it's a six-pack, to me it's a Support Group. Salvation in a can!

     And saving the best for last, here is the Buffalo Theory as explained by a friend of mine.
 
     Here's how it went:
 
     "Well ya see, Norm, it's like this... A herd of buffalo can only move as
     fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the
     slowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural
     selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and
     health of
 
     the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest
     members. In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as
 
     the slowest brain cells. Excessive intake of alcohol, as we know, kills
     brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells
 
     first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker
     brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. That's
     why you always feel smarter after a few beers."

     control..
