Copied off the Internet regarding film maker Oliver Reed and his death by alcohol:

Quote:
Well, maybe it didn’t kill him... but how was he still on his feet?!
It's amazing how much abuse a human body can take! But alcohol is toxic, and drinking to excess has consequences.

Somebody did a study a few years back, of male drinkers in the former Soviet Union - apparently men who drink 1.5 liters of vodka per week have a one-in-three chance of dying prematurely. Thing is, a lot of folks drink a lot more than that;

I knew a geologist, years ago, who drank almost that much every single day (plus a few pints of beer for lunch, and somehow remained functional.

Made me laugh when I stumbled across the "Uncyclopedia" article on geologists, which described members of that profession as "the world's first alcohol-based life form"...

Because of the Wuhan pandemic, I'm quoting this [edited] message—received this morning:

Quote:
I am an optimist and warmer temps and NH air and a late June date made we lean to the “let’s do it “ side of the argument.

I offer up June 2021 as our next time to come together, in New London NH as we have done in the past. Think of the 4th weekend in June; the one before July 4th break.
