Yup, maybe the alcohol in my system is not enough to clean any virus. I need to ramp up on the alcohol!

 

 

 

 

Hehehehehe..... that would be a novelty in US elections -- a mixed bag -- a Democrat president and a Republican VP!!!! And they will get a taste of the Philippine brand of politics!!!!

 

 

But, honestly, I don't think it's permitted in thier system. Let's ask Agxo or igoleyes.

 

 

Hmmmm, all this talk about US politics is better served with some parma ham, cheese and a good label.

 

hmmmm, so what are you suggesting hehehehe. I bet all our gastrointestinal systems need some alcohol boost :thumbsupsmiley:

 

storm is leaving next week. Do I hear some sort of send-off of the oenological variety? hehehe

The Dems are working overtime to unearth whatever dross they can get on Palin, and I thought they once dismissed Palin as some former small-town mayor. To which she replied that a small town mayor is like a community organizer, only with some real responsibilities - an obvious dig at the Barack man hehehe

I just got the following email. It sounds like it might have done the rounds, but it does sound apropo to your condition.

 

As Ben Franklin said:

In wine there is wisdom,

in beer there is freedom,

in water there is bacteria.

 

In a number of carefully controlled trials, scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 litre of water each day, at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

 

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

 

Remember:

Water = Poop,

Wine = Health.

 

Therefore, it's better to drink wine and talk stupid, than to drink water and be full of s@%t.

I love red wine

 

Barolo-though very expensive is my favorite.

 

Next would be very practical yet enough to satisfy- Oxford Landing.

very nice! hehehe

In fact, the Czechs have taken this to heart - most of them don't drink water. They drink beer (Czechs are the biggest beer drinkers in the world). The water they have is put to good use, and this sandstone-filtered natural water they have is one of the best in the world - they use it to make beer. :thumbsupsmiley:

well, i guess it's because water is more expensive than the local brew, on a per c.c. basis. why would i drink water in such event.....

I'll be in Taiwan next week starting Monday, and leaving Friday. Unfortunately, no side trip to Manila this time - have to get back for more meetings the following week!
