I'd say that when ordering the groceries to the house don't forget to add it, but listen... I find that mixed drinks and wine are too addictive. Beer is so much more manageable.

Then _you_ should avoid mixed drinks and wine. Not everybody has your problems.

He reminds me of my neighbour. He doesn't drink liquor because he will
get really runk really fast. The guy drinks lite beer..... by the case.
He starts by mid morning and sits in front of his house drinking all
day. He is rarely falling down drunk, but by mid afternoon he is
loaded. Frankly, I doubt that his BAC would ever be low enough that he
could drive legally.

No, Ive been scared as an adult by long, unbroken blocks of text here on rfc. Some of it is a chore to read.

As a new Google Groups user, but not new to usenet, Im not quite sure yet how it handles this and decided to err on the side of readability.

I hadnt expected to post anything that long until I was a little more familiar with GG.
