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 liter of water
each day, at the end of the year we would have
absorbed more than 1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E.
coli) - bacteria found in feces. In other words, we
are consuming 1 kilo of poop.
However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine &
beer (or tequila, rum, whiskey 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.
There is no need to thank me for this valuable
information: I'm doing it as a public service.
