Errrrmmmmmm, keeping in mind that alcohol is a drug (albeit a legal one), too.
Back before I pretty much gave it up my favourite drugs were caffiene, nicotine
and alcohol. Now I'm down to some caffiene and the occasional brewski or sip of
really good hooch and maybe a glass of wine from time to time. 

Getting old may cause one to develop a somewhat boring lifestyle - but, it
beats what is in second place.   Bv)=

 NB>> However, if you do come over you can have all MY beer for free... (G)

I am somewhat surprised that no one told Bjorn that you are not a suds-o-holic.
Probably assumed, as I did, that someone else would do so and didn't want to be
redundant ... not that being redundant has slowed many of us in the past.
