I like this idea. If I could figure out how to avoid the headache I would subscribe to the idea more often. I can't even drink ONE "Cider Boy's" without getting a horrible headache, and beer Is the same, along with wine. I'm going to try GIN real soon.

Go Hattie! It is humor that keeps the heart young.

A recent study of 80-100 year olds found several things in common. They maintened a reasonable weight throughout their lives (several pounds over what is proposed normal was no big deal) AND, they did not lose weight, or become thinner, as they aged. They also all admitted to 1-2 alcohol beverages per day. It didn't matter what type of beverage: beer, wine or cocktail.
