I was asking the same thing, I guess we are well rounded and ballance individuals.

Either that or you have competing multiple personality disorder.

[CJ Wolf]

Some times I like beer, some times I like wine and some times scotch, sambucca, gin, vodka, brandy and whiskey. But I'm not stupid, I stay away from that tequila stuff. It all depends of course on what's the occasion. I am well rounded then, but sometimes I get off balance when drinking that tequila stuff or the goldslager.

All the scientists had to do was talk to 10 local bartenders, and they would have gotten the same answers. They should have gone deeper with the study, determining what personalities develop with different types of liquor, and with mixing liquor.

Remember kids:

Beer before liquor, never been sicker;
Liquor before beer, you're in the clear.

[G L Tirebiter]

I drink all three 'types'. What's that make me?

Me too...So do we suffer from multiple personality disorders?

[Billthedrill]

No, you don't. But you, and you, and you sure do.

[stevio]

Although we may sometimes have problems with the balance part.

[patton]

Oh, that's just wrong.

Wein nach Bier, dass rat' ich Dir - Bier nach Wein, lass' es allein...

(Liquer after bier ok - Bier after liqeur no way)

Next up, the University of Manitoba's Alcohol and Tobacco Research Unit studies the veracity of the proposition: "If you like to drink your whiskey, you might even shoot yourself"

[Hildy]

This is a trick question, right?

[sit-rep]

I cannot go along with a study from canada... this is America. We are a whole different bread...

[sit-rep]

bread = breed... (cough)

[Michael81Dus]

Actually, these sayings are BS. I´ve read a study that it doesn´t matter what you drink when. The content of alcohol in your blood is decisive, if you´ve drinken too much (depends on your individual condition), you will feel sick or eventually barf.

I tested it all, there´s no difference between beer after or before liquer/wine. ;-)

Wasn't Halifax the city that banned the wearing of perfume and cologne in public places? If Chanel No. 5 and Old Spice are illegal in public, how can Camels and White Owls be legal? Or are Nova Scotians really different from their fellow Canadians and their American neighbors?

[metesky]

Warrior.

[oyez]

I don't remember. I was in Halifax once courtesy of the US Navy and I don't remember leaving due to the fact that Halifaxians were rather courteous as well.

[Blue Collar Christian]

I know, huh!

I should apply for that grant. It could be part of my new program to accellerate the bankruptcy of the country so we can get to the point where we dump the tax and spenders.

[philetus]

Any chance I can get some of that grant as your technical advisor?

[tet68]

And we Aquavelva drinkers smell the best.

[ErnBatavia]

beer drinkers fantisize about doing neat stuff,

You're probably right...otherwise the saying would be "Hold muh White Zin and watch this!"

[cajun-jack]

nope..you are only an alcoholic if you attend meetings..don't go to meetings and you are just a damn ole drunk!!!

I ain't a wino..i'm an anyo..i'll drink any o thing!!
