I know, I know! You’ve all been waiting with baited breath to hear about the Texas wedding! I promise to get to it… tomorrow. I’m wiped.
In the meantime, I couldn’t resist posting this little tidbit, sent to my by my newly married little brother. (Hmmmm…. wonder why he sent it to me???)
WATER AND WINE
To my friend who enjoys 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 litre 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, whisky 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.

I kinda doubt that Ben Franklin said bacteria, as Louis Pasteur and other pioneers in the field didn’t come along until well into the 19th century. The idea of microorganisms first came up in the 1500′s but it didn’t catch on, and they weren’t called bacteria. Now, if Grouch Marx had said it, I’d believe it.

Maddog is so full of knowledge! I’m always so impressed.
Also, I don’t drink but that was funny!
