Your Beverage of Choice

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... and those who don't.

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 consumed more than 1 kg of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in faeces. In other words, we are consuming 1 kg of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine and beer (or tequila,rum, whiskey, vodka 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 shit.
