Talking to your pita chips probably means you’ve had enough. :P

Naw, it's only when they start talking to you that you've had enough.

Big mystery...one explanation is that the health effects are due to the alcohol and not the wine. For example, even the USDA's dietary guide for Americans says alcohol (in moderation) is good for you. Click here and start reading at the bottom of p. 29. When they give very high levels to mice and rats of resveratrol good things happen for sure, but our levels don't get up nearly that high.

In complete seriousness I would suggest they’re looking at this in exactly the wrong way. Exercise is red wine without the bottle - same conclusion just turned around.

Wow. That looks cool. I would like to just have the bottle to put $60 scotch in.

It's when they (Pita chips) start looking like Wonder Woman, then you know you're in trouble......

Looks like we need to do an emergency intervention on Lameshark, Hoffer.

I’ll tie him up and you grab the bottle. :)

Almost too purty to drink (I said almost)

may prevent the negative effects that spaceflight

Okay, that's what I've been looking for to get rid of those post-spaceflight blahs.
I'm telling you, that 52-mile commute to Parsippany in the old days is nothing compared to the 26,200 miles these days . . .

"Resveratrol may not be a substitute for exercise, but it could slow deterioration until someone can get moving again." Oh thank you so much ... I can always use another reason to open a nice bottle of Merlot to sip on for three or four days. At my age 'you have to take your medicine' is one of the best excuses around, even if I don't take any kind of prescription meds. [Now, which brand will I select for medicating tonight?]
