Without reading the article I still contend their study is a tad flawed.

DANG!!!!!

Other than an occasional glass of wine (that is changing now that I learned how to make it) beer is about the alcoholic beverage I consume.

I will probably consume copious amounts of it this afternoon while dealing with the getting the kid ready for tomorrow’s first day of middle school.

Let us all thank God for His wisdom.

Some days, I have wondered why He created osteoporosis.

Then I read something like this, in which He has provided the cure for His malady, and my faith is restored.

Ben Franklin was right ... beer is indeed proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.

If it’s a question of taste, might I recommend a beginner beer? Michelob Ultra is not very beery. Neither is Rolling Rock. (That’s what I prescribe for starter drinkers who want something mild and palatable to play quarters with.)

I'm getting healthy right now!

So that I can watch Sally Field's commercials for Boniva.

Leftist nut she may be, but she's hot for an old broad.

You and me both, my man! Cheers! Days off rule.

Truth be told, Sally is looking VERY good these days. I’m 40, so I figure Sally has to be mid to late 50s. Go her!

Me, too. I'm strengthening my bones!

I didn't have the day off, but it's 8:30 at night. It's civilized and all.

Dang...I wish you had a webcam. (I've gots one.) We could clink beers through the screen.

Oh, wait....I just washed my hair and I look like a drowned rat.

And the medicine goes down so easily.

I guess I'll have to have beer daily so my bones will stay nice and strong.

Thanks for the link, Ern. My life is too hectic now to take up the pursuit of making my own brew.

In the interim, the Shiner brewery is my brauerei of choice. Their "Family Reunion" six pack contains six different brews, and I'm able to taste the German influence in them.

My preference for German beer was developed during my four year tour in Germany.
